DeathXR, what sort of height adjustable's you have? Custom made or off the shelf? Fully adjustale (ride height, rebound, stiffness..) and re-buildable?

the XR50 front bar is approx 5mm (10mm MAX) lower than a pursuit lip, i have had both and we checked during initial construction just out of interest

It's the King Springs Pro-sport kit, height adjustable only. Not sure if they are re-builable - be nice if they are, as I don't believe Kings are doing these any more.

I'm still missing one part - I neeed racing spring seats to stop the movement that currently exists with the springs is the stock seats. The local suspension guy is an old hand at sprint cars, and was tracking some down after his next visit to a parts expo, but hasn't got back to me...

Some pics for you Bluedriver...

(The paint flaking off in CHUNKS from the side skirts is now worse. That is what happens when body kit manufacturers, who prime their own stuff, don't properly remove the wax from the manufacturing process... However, I'm reliably informed there is no such issue with these kits anymore, as the company does in-house painting to ensure total quality control...)

Mark - blanking out the rego on 2 of 3 pics still leaves one pic showing it!

Nice car.

Mark351 · 09-08-2005, 10:21 PM

Yeah, I directly linked other pics... :(

The count is 4 for the XR50 to 5 Pursuit.....

JC · 11-08-2005, 12:17 PM

Where's your vote BD - you may actually have to make a decision to split the result you know.

I think I've changed my mind - go the pursuit lip.

FalKeen · 11-08-2005, 06:42 PM

have you counted me as an XR50 supporter?

just to help you decide :hihi:

Looks great. Just need to see it with a splash of colour and it might look almost as good as a Black XR.

Now if only I had the money, i'd get my car lowered and with these wheels.

**FTE217** · 19-08-2005, 09:48 PM

LOL Bucky,somehow I have seen those wheels some where ! Thats right on a beAUtiful Meteorite XR8 !! You've knocked mine off !!!
See I told you they would look hot !!! As much as I like the Stalker's these go up another level in looks.
I have officially joined the Nancy Club but with Grunt !!

Well don't miss induction night. I dub thee "Sir Grey XR Nancy"

Oh yeah, now I remember where I saw a pic of those wheels. Your car. Glad you reminded me.

What are your wheels called and who makes them. I really do like the shape of the blades and the finish is really nice.

Stalkers are nice, but your rims seem to have a more modern feel to them. Very sexy. I think we should trade with cash.

They look good BD

Well got the car back yesterday, as well as the bar getting painted got lucky enough both front gaurds and bonnet repainted also so no chips little dents etc. Paintwork is brilliant ! Meteorite is a tough colour to do, 10 different tints go into it thats why the whole front was repainted to blend it in with the rest of the car.
Now to get the Bling lights wired up and maybe maybe a few other things.
Night pics were taken while shopping last night and the others this morning, all taken with the mobile camera.
Thanks to AWC, your service is great and very helpful guys.

LG · 26-08-2005, 11:47 AM

What he said.

Looks fantastic. That bar really suits that colour (or vice versa)

**FTE217** · 29-08-2005, 08:57 AM

LOL sfr, you haven't been speaking to my wife have you ? LOL......

Thanks for the other comments fellas, I'm really happy, over the weekend looking at her at different angles she really looks the goods.
Even without the T series skirts it blends in nicely.
The paint job is superb ! and the fit is great.
Got to find time to get the Bling lights wired up.
I am not sure about the buldge now as it's fine as it is.
