WOW haven't been here in ages, time for an update
Ended up installing the AXES finally (took me about a month after i bought them) and messed around with ride height and camber settings, ended up lowering the back about 1 1/4" and the front about 2" from when i started and running maximum camber front (from memory i think it's -4 deg) and wound up the rear camber about 3/4 of the way (no idea what it is in degrees) they wheels tuck in nicely but it rubs like crazy. I have to do a 3-point turn to get it up my driveway. Will have to raise the car soon but i've been too lazy
I also managed to score some 262mm (i think you guys call them 10", form EG6) front brakes (discs, hubs, calipers etc....) for dirt cheap ($80, i think that's cheap), now i'm just waiting for some slotted rotors to arrive before installing them (have slotted rotors all round so can't have slotted at the back and stock front)
So yeah that's about it with the old eg, been wasting money on the ek too, driving that mainly and leaving to poor eg to gather dust in the garage.
On another note i also picked up a Honda CBR 250R to get me to and from work so i might let the ek go soon, but it's autumn here (and winter soon) so it's too freaking cold on the bike, especially since i commute to and from work on the highways
PS: Re-loaded some of the pics on the first page, also here's some of the most recent photos
The Annual cruise is coming up on the 4th of July (the guy organizing it is an ex-pat American so he wanted to do it on the independence day) so there should be more pics soon
