Joined SC in early September, thought I may as well post up a pic.

KYB suspension, FMIC, pod filter, boost controller, few grand worth of stereo, random lightweight wheels that came with the car... etc.

Next will be a 7" touchscreen LCD head unit. I'm also going to run a ram pipe and shield for the pod filter but I'm not sure where to get the material for the heat shield from. The front needs to be raised a bit as well, since I keep scrubbing these wheels at $210 each. Next engine thing will probably be some management and a tune.

The things quick,

Hi David.
Nice wheels. Pity about the scrubbing cos from the pic it looks like it has a really nice stance.

Bodywork is stock, its just the wheels in the front arches that are the issue. I scrape the (stock) front bar sometimes, but I'm not really bothered by that

They are Falken 235/45/17 on the front. If I took a corner with the wheels at an angle they are in that pic, and ran over a pebble, it would scrub. I take a normal t-junction or something and it'll scrub on the smoothest road.

It sucks, because it looks f**ken mean . I don't know what the wheels are, some lightweight Jap 3-piece that were on there when it was imported.

Could just roll the guards, but ride quality is also pretty harsh... Cheaper and better to just raise it 2cm.

Also scrubs harder on the left, so its going in for a wheel alignment which could solve some of the problem, dunno.
