Update for the week.
Sold a fair few parts I had laying about the garage this week. That has allowed me to buy these
Set of two Advan RG 16x8 5x114 with 225/45/16 Dunlop semi slicks. I've been looking for 8j for some time but in 15" that expensive(if you can find any) most seem to run 225 on a 7j but I don't like the thought of it personally.
Means I'm likely to have to change my spring rates so I can come lower without the tyre catching the inner wing, this should give me my current ground clearance back. I feel the current ride height is good for the DIY aero I've got going on ATM plus it will probably just clear MOST of the Nurburgring without catching the floor too hard.
These are due to land with me Tuesday so I may stick them on for afew sessions at brands the same evening just for giggles.
Today I got all my engine parts back!
To recap I got the whole assembly balanced, flywheel skimmed, crank polished, block honed and everything cleaned.
Everything came in sealed bags to keep contaminants out which is cool, I've got little drill holes in everything now aswell where it's been balanced lol
Crank is super clean and journals are perfect after the polish, can't wait to get it fitted!
Stock c4 flywheel(because I'm poor) if you could have seen this before it went it! Been shot blasted, skimmed and balanced. Now looks like a work of art tbf
So left there with these and afew more build tips! I basically try to info sponge this guy everytime I'm there lol I'm confident I can build this bottom end clean now but I'm looking at starting Tuesday before brands.
