Thanks in advance for your time with this guys! :)

The eibach rear camber kit includes the toe kit, at least mine came with it. You should look at getting the hr springs, it drops lower.

Any idea on how many 40th Anni's will be shipped to Australia?

Might want to store all the parts you remove in a nice safe place.

They are seperate items on the Stillen site and the lady there mentioned that I required them.

So I definately need the toe bolts right?

Sorry I'm not mechanically minded.

The 40th quartz COLOR is available on any March+ 2010 coupe or roadster. We only get the anniversary color, not the other pros/cons.

Any idea what the brake caliper color is called/coded?

I'm thinking of getting my calipers 'imi-painted' to your 40th's color.

Well mine came with the toe bolt and I didn't install them. A friend of mine got the same camber kit and installed his toe kit. The toe bolt should come with the kit.

What would be the +/- to installing or not installing the toe bolts?

As you wont be tracking it I would get the FI CBE, K&N drop ins, maybe HFC (depends onhow loud you want it) and a Cobb canned tune or real tune. The intake and full exhaust and tune will net you some nice gains. I wouldnt change any of the body or interior as its the 40th and kinda special already and that may devalue it some. Since not tracking, you wont really need the pulley stuff as whats on there is good for day to day. And Im not sure how the roads are there and lowering might not be good plus if you get the FI CBE lowering will make the mufflers real close to the ground.

Thanks for that :)

What's your take on how much less power I would gain if I DON'T get a hfc?

installing
- you have to cut a bigger hole for your toe bolt to fit.
+ your toe setting is within spec

not installing
- your toe setting may be off but it may not increase tire wear
+ no cutting involved

only about 2-4 HP.

Oh really? Is that all? What's that is RWkw?

I was under the impression that the HFC's gave most of the power increase!

If I don't get HFC's, will there be (more) rasping from my CBE and will there still be a deep tone (which is what I am after)?

I'm guessing from the the lack of feedback and opinions that the mods I've chosen are correct and good ones?

So all my reading on the forum has paid off? :)

^yah pretty much. from what ive learned from the site you seem to be in the right direction
