power extreme II from GCG is a good start on the exhaust, nice note without being loud. Decent return Floe inter-cooler is a must too as the std one is shouse.

Body kit well... there is about 11billion variations. post a pic of what you want and i can give you details of people in the business (we used to supply alot of kits to distributors).

Rims... well again it comes down to taste, some nice offset rims in 18" look the best, s15 are a bit lacking in room in the rear but a 9.5" will fit in a decent offset and 9" on the front no worries.

A factory Spec R with a decent stance and a set of wheels would look better then a body kitted one, but depends on what body kit you get...

Get a set of decent coil overs (fully adjustable suspension)

As Trent said, a decent set of 18 x 9 / 18 x 9.5" should look flush for fitment.

A quality made "oval" shape muffler should keep the noise down.

Hi, thanks so much for replying me that quick..

en i think i better leave exhaust for a while... as i can only do few things at a time..

this car has already got a ---i think is a aero skirt on it....so i assume, i will just get a front and rear bumper.. matching or not matching, as long looks good...

so do you know some place that i can go their web or site view?

regards to rims and tyers, this car is gun metal color,, so i would prefer Black wheels?

if pick 18" -9".. what tyers will be? 225/40 or 245?

Thanks again

    • I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps  
    • According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car. 
    • It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.
    • If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.
    • Lock me in mate, although I'm not sure if I'll be heading up from Goulburn or down from Sydney, either way, return will be back to Goulburn
