I think the stock stereo sounds fantastic, so I'm more than happy with it. I think I got it from amazon.com for like $45 too. Not sure if they can still be had for that.

Cheers, been a while since I have done anything to it, so good to be making some improvements. Went for a hills drive with Hamish and some WRX's. Highlighted the fact I needed to get my car sitting flatter through the twisties.

Definitely first recommendation. I didn't get left for dead by the others, but was working a lot harder for it.

Mostly very twisty stuff, but when there was a decent straight or uphill, they pulled away rather noticeably.

I'm hoping so. Last bit for suspension now is the lower arm bushes from PHAT.

Well, got all the Cusco gear installed on Saturday and I'm really happy with how flat the car sits now. Turn-in feels sharper and feels a whole lot better mid-corner. Next step, LCA bushes.
