Well, my opinion -- and since its not my car its really irrelevant -- is as follows:

1) The front bar is too aggressive for the rest of the car at the moment. I assume you like it, so I would suggest the addition of some side skirts to match and get rid of the variation in height.

2) I'd ditch the GT wing. They look silly on road going cars IMHO, and have no place on a sedan. You could use the money to fund, say, a FMIC to fill the big gap in your front bar.

3) The wheels are not to my tastes, but again, that's not the point is it :huh:

4) I wouldn't be listing stickers as "modifications" :)

lol....thanx to all of your comments, nah im sweet in all honest i like it with the spoiler plus it just cost me $200 to get the boot fixed so im not too keen on spending it again. You cant please everyone i know that but i did what i wanted to my car so others opinions are just fine :P i do agree with the side skirts and rear bumper but alas, i have used my nut and brought 3wks holiday in brisbane and sydney and also a house so, they will wait, still a work in progress my car and hope to import it if i find a job in oz. yep no worries will turn down that boost then i was told putting a front mount on would let me get at least 15 outta the turbo, so do you think it will blow if i left it on a bar??

hi there, yes yes, i think we figured the stickers weren't mod's thanx :unsure: hey RyanN yeah the rides good aye mate, i was pulling 120-140k's around a few 35-40k corners out in raglan here in nz and it stuck like gummies to an old person, its comfortable as hell and gives the car just the right look i would recommend lows if your thinking about it.

awesome, im going to order them right now. :unsure: as you can see my car needs it - ass is sticking right up in the air. :lol:

EDIT: The other thing i was going to ask is how loose are the low king springs in the shocks? are they still a tight fit?

    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
    • Well they got my money but they are not getting my gearbox ! 
    • It's needed for rolling idle up, and I think it is a decider on VCT also.
    • I mean, not really. Link ECU's can absolutely still have errors from the ECU thinking it's getting a sensor it's not expecting. I would imagine the speed at the ECU level in Nistune does absolutely nothing anyway? I assume the ECU does not do any fancy TC stuff with regards to front+rear wheel speed or anything of that like anyway. Someone who uses Nistune may be more fluent in it.
