Lotsa info there, I'm not sure it has been successfully done on a sedan... Yet.

I love the car Ben and the exhaust tips look nice

PS. If you ever need to give away your SBC wheels let me know!

I'm just having a little holiday on some nice 17's atm until the Shockworks are ready and then, the suspension and handling dept will be finalized for the foreseeable future.

Took my tails off for fun, might sell, might not:


Clear/chrome type Mars(?) type wagon tail lights. $170 plus post. ($30ish slow registered iirc)
These are off the car for the minute, might go back on once tinted, I'm undecided. Help me decide, buy them, or don't
Masking tape is just there to mock up the body line.
Just a few scratches and one repaired chip that didn't break the seal (see pic below).
All LEDS WORKING

Bump for my FS thread! (link in my sig)

Another successful local footy video season for Red Onion Adcell wrapped up on the weekend with 4x ( ) Grand Finals shot on Saturday for PCN and another 3x shot on Sunday for the SFL. A truly epic finish to the season and once again I'm honored to be on the finals team. Once again the the LIb was my trusty aide in this endeavor, and went three cameras and gear up the last weekend. There's only one place I'd rather be after a ten hour day, and that's home.

The Libs other role is as a Basketball Taxi, a safe an enjoyable way to get my son and his teammates to and from their games, some of which are hundreds of ks away or interstate even. Maxs hard work and dedication over the last seven years as a baller and now referee has paid off in a huge way, we received news that he has gained a place with the BHSSC Basketball Program:

Its hard to describe how big this is for him and our family, and the Lib has been an essential member of the team to get to this point.

Needless to say its going to be lavished with some extra special TLC this summer: Shockworks being the tip of the iceberg




The Bball Taxi was used as our crew car for making this video for Crumpler directed by the talented Dean Saffron. Somehow it made it into the video too, kinda fitting as the hero bag and hero car are both shiny black


Here it is doing the delivery for the shoot after which we loaded it to the roof on the way home


Taking poly boards up the carpark at work to the top parking level from where we carried them in up the stairs.


Lastly, our other family member, the Hennarot 5mt povo-pack spec Baur TC (no ersatz rear boot spoiler FTW) continues to delight.
Her Ladyship was kind enough to park it undercover through winter with sparing use on fine weekends, and now we'll be getting out more as the weather picks up. Some tasty wheel related mods coming here too


As she stands, on my touring wheels, thanks to Huy for remembering my eoi years ago. The PROVA 18's are going back on when the Shockworks are fitted with some guard and liner work to fit my 235 40 R18 Pirellis happening beforehand.

looking awesome Benny

[bigBADbenny]

I'm shocking: I'll buy practically anything I regard as good value or a good investment.
If I've committed to something that I've forgotten about let me know!
Otherwise, you all have PM: I'm settling a bunch of scores atm

[owen]

My car is good value. Do it bro.

[bigBADbenny]

That would be daylight robbery, better to let a n00b enjoy the fruits of your labors

BtSsm works on my MY07 GT spec B!

Its an OBDII SSM to Bluetooth to Android interface, much like having RomRaider Logger and LV on your Android 4+ smart phone.
I'm displaying the app on my factory nav screen via Cyanogen modded Samsung SGS i9000 headphone jack video out.

Get the low down from the vendor here:

And local progress here, for now:

I'm looking for any and all Subarus for testing, so let me know if you are local and keen

[shav]

Looks awesome Ben. Love it. I've been contemplating a screen for a reverse camera/dials setup similar to yours.

[bigBADbenny]

The stock nav is very low res, its just bearable displaying the i9000 video...

Luckily there are plenty of good options if you dont have stock nav

Personally I'd go the nexus route, or an Android 4.1 Mini PC and eg a Lilliput touchscreen, or a JDM double din and Android HU - and put real gauges in the cubby...

[chris12]

Yeah, the resolution on the stock navigation is terrible. I wish I could skin it.

Oh thanks. Good to know. I have the factory cubby so its all research at the moment. I just want something easy to navigate and still work all the things I want it to.
