hm.. you do think the 350Z is faster. I saw one pulled away on expressway once pretty impressive. I think one of those Alfa 156 GTA is fast as well.
Eng soon is the bilstein distributor here. PSS9 drops the ride by 50mm, hm.. I am worry about being too low. Are you considering PSS too?
I am waiting for my warranty replacement PS2 tyres on the 166M rims. I need to drop the height otherwise it is an eyesore. As matter of fact the M5 stock wheel gaps are still quite big so 15mm drop is still not adequate.

Zag, take out your caller-non-id lah, so that we know its you calling

My friend selling his KW variant 2, less that one year old. Brand new 3k+. Min drop 25mm, height and damping adjustable. He is upgrading to variant 3, warranty on the KW no issue since he is the dealer of KW. If you are keen I can link you guys up.

Got a 50 cents coin size dent on my ride passenger door (very close to fold line) over the weekend. Darn MPVs with high doors nowadays!
This time i decided to get it fixed at Lye (vs. Capitol PDR previuosly).
From what i observed, Lye is more experience, he doesn't have to slide his tools thru the glass window slot. He did it thru the red reflector openings. He also massaged away one dent at the boot lid which Capital PDR said not doable.

Toto, what time is the show down. Accord Euro R, think you can take him no problem above 140kph.

Lye is the best. However, he's so busy nowadays you'll have to make an appt first.

Lye is indeed the master of dents remover. I brought my E39 to PDR at Capitol for a dent on the bonet and they left scratch marks after removing the dent! I swear by Lye's workmanship. Anyway, you can locate Lye Designs at
