Unfortunately I have 0 time tomorrow as I'm flying down to Melbourne to play soccer for the long weekend :(
Might do it Monday if I'm free !

Pffft... As if you'd prioritise team sports over the selfish joy of your car. ;)
I was going to procrastinate, but I put it off...

Been a bit slow with updating, I had the front and rear sway bars and ALK installed last week. Car definitely has a firmer presence on the road but I think that I certainly need to get some new tyres! Ive been looking at the Achilles 123S 235/40/18, otherwise I will most likely go down the route of Nitto NT05's.

I have the car booked in for the 10th of July to get my Raptor headers, 2 x 100 cel high flow cats and 3rd cat delete replaced with Y-pipe installed so very excited about that!! I'm going to fiji on sunday so most likely wont be hearing much until after the 3rd of July.

Well I paid $500 for them through t.renahaw34 on the forum. But I bought front and rear sway bars and the anti lift kit. For just the sway bars you would need to PM him to get an accurate price

And what does an anti lift kit do? Keep the car flat when accelerating/braking? Or is it more side to side "stuff"?

Largely keeps the car nose flat under acceleration ad braking.

Hahahahaha yeah that would have been pretty silly of me...

So, 29th of july the car gets to experience the wonder treatment from Leo. CCFL angel eyes getting installed :D :D :D :D

Then on the 21st of august, car is going to Lifestyle car audio at north parramatta.
Going to be a big install.

Full car dynamatted

Double Din headunit installed (Clarion NX501A)
Focal KRX3 3-way speakers in the front doors.
Focal KRX 3 inch driver to replace the centre speaker
Focal KRX2 2-way speakers in the rear doors
Rockford Fosgate T600-4 4 channel amp for speakers
Rockford Fosgate T1500-1 monoblock amp for subwoofers
2 Rockford Fosgate T1 15 inch subwoofers in sealed box
Rockford Fosgate 10 Fahrad capacitor
Audison BitOne signal processor
Optima D35 yellow top battery

Amps and capacitor will be custom mounted on an amp rack in the boot.

Should take 3 days for the install :( but should be awesome when completed.

Should be awesome indeed.

That's pretty close to what I would love in my car, except with less bass and no centre.
I'm interested to know how the krx3 go in the lib.

Yeah I must admit the bass is a bit over the top, but heck why not haha. You can always turn it down :)

Yeah I had the krx2's in my old lib and they sounded awesome. So should be interesting to see if the additional mid driver makes a big difference
