Sorry to ask another question regarding the diff but, are you still running disk brakes and standard suspension? I'll be buying wheels soon then getting the diff done and I'd like to get the same size and offset wheels as you have but I want to retain disk brakes and standard suspension to keep costs down. Cheers

AJAX Wheels Moorabbin. You can't just walk in and buy them. You have to work out what rear offset you want, take in to old interceptors and they cut the centre out and weld them to whatever width rim you want. Sizes are 3.5" - 8" wide.

if you shorten the diff as much as mine you cant run disc rear. Im now running a shute at the track so that didnt bother me. As for suspension, Its still standard but you will have to make a small mod to the lower control arms. You have to cut the outter rolled edge off the lower arm and then get the arm boxed, as cutting that rolled edge off the arm it loses its strength. See pic below, you will see the outter rolled edge missing and a laser cut gusset welded in for strength, under the gussets there is 4 to 5mm plates also welded to the inside. See STIX in "For sale advertised" thread for the laser cut gussets. Hope this helps.

Yeah I can fit a 26x10 or a 255x60 but the rolling diameter of a 255 is 27" and it sits to high. plus it comes down the the cost of the tyres! As Im tipping the first set wont last long on the car!! lol Transbrake and a **** load of power = Fun!!!! lol

I had horizontal side venetions but when I got the car back from being stolen it was missing 2 things. My side venetions and the fire extinguisher! Why I have no idea!
I haven�t found another set to replace them yet.

I understand first hand how much time and f****** around it is getting particular things exactly the way you want it.... full credit it to you man. Can say by far one of the cleanest White SL's around and has been for a long while. Just a question about your eBOOST2.....
Ill be purchasing one off stix soon and was wondering if the loom can be extended, ran under the carpet and mounted in the secondary compartment of the centre console?

Cheers. I seen your build thread mate, yours is coming along nicely.
In regards to the EB2, the wires can be extended as its just a bare loom that comes out of the EB2 and out of the electronic solenoid, so you can make it how ever long you need it.
