I actually prefer the look of the DRL's to the fogs myself...the fogs looked a little daft to me surrounded by plastic. I do like the large driving lights (replaces fogs) on my Impreza though. I guess any styling change isn't going to appeal to everyone. Daren't look at pictures of any facelift cars after mine, in case I prefer them lol.

Are they the calipers from the C63 straight fit? Did you need to swap out the MC at all?

UPDATE!!!!!

Our joint Project between GAD Tuning ltd and Lake House Tuning for the 800NM C350 CDI is coming along nicely! Lake House tuning have installed the latest Carbon fibre spoiler and rear diffuser giving an aggressive look from behind! Exhaust is next on the list and they are not sure if they will be going quad oval, quad black edition or possibly large double oval (RS4 style)

Love it! Are you doing anything to the box? How much are they rated to factory?

Good morning,

800NM will definitely need some form of uprating! However there is a company is the USA that we will be sending it to. There top package rates the components to 2000NM of torque!!!!!!!! Incredible I know but very very expensive!

Regards

Anthony @ GAD

Blimey! The clutch packs on that must be a mile long! heh.

The americans do like playing with their autoboxes to be fair! They also like lowering the stall point of the TQ.

Are you changing the TCU program as well?

Yes the TCU most likely will have to have some software modifications however we can play with a lot of gearbox settings through the ECU alone (Limitations among other things) so we will have to see on the day! :D

Are you actually doing any of the work? I am following the thread by the owner of the car on another forum and see no mention of GAD. Owner has put it is a joint project with Rebellion Automotive www.rebellionautomotive.co.uk and Lake House Tuning.

Good morning,

Rebellion have supplied the Hardware for Lake house tuning however the car runs GAD management. The post on MBclub was in the early stages before we came on board with the mapping due to us writing bespoke software.

Regards

Anthony @ GAD

(GAD are in talks with Phil (CEO) at Rebellion with him becoming a possible dealer for our software)
