Re: 20 x 10.5's. No going back. Now fitted

Post by **DavidRS4** » Wed Apr 23, 2014 3:48 pm

Rick,
Just had a text from the place that is doing it. He has fitted the suspension and the carbon air box. He's ordered some 20mm H & R hubcentric spacers to hopefully arrive tomorrow. I've got to go in to see it all fitted so we can discuss ride height. Hopefully I'll get to do it late tomorrow afternoon as I am away at the minute.

Fingers crossed

Awesome. Can't wait.

Been to see the car. Air box looks good but they only sent one set of spacers instead if two so have got to wait till Monday for the other set and to drop the car down to set the ride height so we can see what might need to be done body wise

Thanks for the offer J but they are away testing at Silverstone and have a race on Saturday so can't do it till Monday anyway.

Have they test fitted?
Is that how they determined the spacer size?

With a 20 you will extend 26 more than stock
That is alot
Inside wll be 12 deeper should be ok

Apparently they have test fitted. Will hopefully get to see it on it's wheels on Monday. Then the ride height and arch work can be decided.

I'm currently in Normandy waiting to get the ferry back to Blighty as I have been on a Recce for the Normandy 70th anniversary landings.

I was just waiting for the rear spacers to arrive so the car can be dropped on the floor to see how we want it to sit. Fingers crossed I'll get to see it tomorrow as I am getting on the over night ferry back to Portsmouth.

Finally got to see the car with the wheels on. The ride height and the front arches haven't been sorted yet as they wanted to put the car on the ground and see how far I wanted to go.

I have decided to go for a ride height inbetween the front and the back. Not fussed about having it mega low as I want it to drive ok.

Couple of teaser pics of how iti is at the moment

Looking good mate, will look miles better once you get rid of some of the arch gap.

We both have good taste, Phantom Black saloons w/Forge oil cooler and V3s

Quality things together

Looking good, cannot wait for full pics showing front and rear views

Is that the latest version of the revolution carbon intake kit? does it still take air from the underneath from the engine compartment and from the front?
