haha had to read this thread when i saw the heading.

Yeah mate u have to either record sounds from ur mates turboed car or the net or shove your head out the window every gearchange and go 'PPPSSHHHH!' and dodge the street signs coming for your head. Either way ul get the attention ur after lol.

hmmmmm... don't even know if I can be bothered saying anything..

Go and read up on how a BOV works and why it works and you might realise that putting one on an N/A car is ridiculous..

The rules in NSW are there for a reason and there is nothing you can do about it unfortunately.. wait till your a bit older, than buy a turbo car..

edit: i've even gone to the effort to find a page for you to look at..

You actually cant be serious can you? Go get a fullysick sound system and like everyone else said, record the noise... Then you'll look fullsick and the chicks will love you. If your lucky you might gain another 100rwkw as well.

    • Nah that is not actually a lot. Just painting my GTR frontend and the little bits to make sideskirts/nismo flare pieces work correctly/fit on the sedan/mount up correctly came to about $7000. Is it a lot? Sure. None of this is economical. Economy would be shelling the car and buying a 2010 Corolla to commute in. The perspective of all of this is different.
    • I have the 2025 build re003s’ on my 06 XT Forester Turbo and I quite rate them for street wet and dry
    • I don't see any issues here. I've been saying all along this is a big job, the price reflects that.  When the car comes back perfect I'm sure it will feel like money well spent. 
    • Remember, take original quote. Double it. Then add a bit more. It's how any project goes.
    • So, I started this repair and got as far as "fixing" the holes with some fibreglass. God all those years working on boats came back quickly. I decided I'd reach out to some rust guys just to see what they would say about it. I came across a guy about 40 mins away and went to see him. He said the windscreen needs to come out, that there might be some more bits around the windscreen and he'd quote them at the time. But his quote was $300 to remove and replace windscreen and $3k for the damage he can see. He said he could respray the roof for $1200 and the bonnet for another $800 (somebody has previously rattle canned it, its horrendous). This is $5300 + any small additional bits. It's a lot, I get that and the name of one of my fave youtube channels 'Not Economically Viable' comes to mind.  I'm not being financially rational, but I've taken him up on the quote. He's opening a new shop in November with more room, so we're waiting for that. I'll leave the currently missing headliner out until then. I'm looking forward to it being fixed and having the paint looking nice again (lots of clear coat issues on the roof too). / flame suit on.
