What is your ET ? When riding nothing hurts ?

 

Brayen...

ET, i have not been to the track yet with my STR, but I estimate it is good for a 12.9 second pass, @ 108mph...

When riding nothing hurts? Are you asking how comfortable it rides on lowering springs and low profile tires? Its firm, but still compliant enough for me to be considered comfortable... I have a BMW 5-series with an M-sport package, which has uprated suspension, and decent sidewall tires, which I feel rides firmer than my Jag...

 

GT42R, sorry for my english )

ET - I mean, what kind of departure from your disks (for example my 7.5 J ET60). Second question - do not affect whether the wheels on the arch or arches with full salon or on rough roads?

 

Ah. ET has multiple meanings. This one is wheel rim offset I think.

 

wheel rim offset - that's what I meant )))

 

Specs of stock STR staggered fitment wheels,
front 18x8.5 ET60
rear 18x9.5 ET60

Specs of my staggered forgestar setup,
front 19x8.5 approx ET50
rear 19x10.5 approx ET50

Updated pic of my interior as well:

 

Yes, except stock front are 8" not 8.5"

 

Fresh pic of the STR...

 

Nice, I too have a soft spot for Green Jags......

 

what brand these black rim ? And what his spec ?

 

That seems like Michael Star's previous STR, which i believe went to a new owner... according to FS thread on Star's STR, those are staggered COR brava 3 piece wheels...

 

Man how do you keep that white interior so clean???

I would have it trashed out quickly and am glad I have a black interior even though it's way to hot in the summer!

This was a rare color for Jag. It was used on ALL the X/R series for the 2003 International Auto Shows. Every car built that toured the country was this color. From the XJR to the Type R to the X-Type R to the XKR. All their offerings that year that went to show were only this color. The stage was done in solid wood walnut flooring and panels or this color and walnut squares. They only offered this color on the Super as a optional color and the S -Type R as an option color but not offered in their production line. I was lucky to have gotten the ONLY XJR for 2003 in this color. It was dates 2 years earlier on the door tag but was a 2003 built esp. for the Auto Shows that toured the world. I had just bought a Carnival Red XJR and the next month the auto show came to LA and I had to have that car. It took me 4 years to find it as it was previously owned by Jaguar and an Executive had driven it. They couldn't sell me the car at the time because it still had many other stops to make. I luckily found the one and only one and drove it until I was stupid and gave it to my father in law. I replaced from the factory the front drivers seat leather covers and a few little things. It was a perfect trouble free car and rare as the Hope diamond. You have a very special car.

 

More pictures, rare color and this was the only one ever produced.

 

I was lucky, no defects in the paint and never had been touched up or bumped up against, even on the bumpers. Glass was perfect. The only thing was I needed to have the rotors turned ( But no new brake shoes) the wood on the drivers door had a crack and had Jaguar repair it, and a new set of tires. Other than that the car was without flaw and I still could kick myself for getting rid of it. Best Jag I ever owned and the most beautiful color ever created IMO. I loved it and don't know what I was thinking. Oh well, we always have some regrets in life.

 

Bumping with a fresh pic, albeit, a poor quality one

 

UPDATES:

Recently stripped and polished the brembo calipers to match the polished finish of the wheels...



Rolling shot!


STR from the back...

 

I've been looking for this thread for months after seeing your exhaust video on youtube.

I've been trying to deduce what your exhaust setup was for like. DAYS lol. Luckily I ended up w/ the sound that I liked but hot damn, your setup is great!

 

Bro I need to know where you fit rims like that.

 

McJagger, check my first post to this thread for all the details, including wheel specs.

Fresh pic,


And...

Very brief clip of my STR backfiring and popping, F-type style, captured this from my clubs drive this past weekend...
