Australian visitor with a euro 628 CSi says hello (archive)

The complete automotive resource for buyers, sellers, and owners like you.

Hi my name is Julian Seeger. I live in a city called Hervey Bay in Queensland Australia. Six years ago i purchased a euro 628 CSi 2 owner vehicle. Since then i have painted it 3 times (its now black),gold plated the door handles, badges and all the other silver moulds on the outside of the car. 16 x 8" rims dressed in black and gold are fitted along with 225/50/16 tyres. I have custom fabricated my own side skirts and rear bumper, along with taking a fibreglass mould off a M635. The original 2.8 motor has been replaced with a 3.5, which is mated to the original 5 speed close ratio getrag box(short shift fitted). Hand made mandrel bent extraxctors and 3" exhaust removes the wasted air, no cats fitted. The viscous fan has been removed and electric ones are now installed. I have also made a custom cold air box with a hi flow air filter fitted. The suspension is 2.5" lower than standard, all camber and caster measurements are now fully adjustable for both the front and rear. I also made my own strut brace. Inside the cabin there is a Momo leather steering wheel, custom speedo faces, re-covered leather seats, Momo gear knob and new carpet. The stereo is the main feature of the interior. All components in the car are Alpine products except for the Stinger connectors and an Audio Control X-over. There is C/d tuner, six stacker, time alignment, two 10" subs, two 8" subs, a pair of DDDrive flagship 6" splits, 5" mids, two MRV-F400`s, two MRV-T500`s and one MRV-1000. Since owning this vehicle I have learnt a lot of tricks on how to fix/modify things, so I hope I can be of service to everyone.
P.S I spent two months in a town called Flint in Michigan when i was in the USA so it would be great to hear from someone from around that area.
