$1400 for a tune and silicone intake?? :shock:

Gains with a silicon intake (full under manifold) are very marginal, even after a tune. Money better spent elsewhere.

Yeah fair, enough I've had a few ppl say not to worry about the silicon pipes....

I am currently enquiring about DBA 4000 slotted rotors. Should I just get the fronts or get the fronts/rear?
Other than that I'm thinking of
$575 Kobe TMIC
$500 New billsteins unless otherwise recommended?
Whiteline sways
MSR Tune
Window tint

Sound any better?

Will be waiting for new rims after the 12/13 tax season. Due to the shit roads out here.

Oh copy.

Not really interested in coil overs. Wouldn't use them to full benefit and they are way too expensive.

Not to mention that with stock wheels they look stupid going low because there's too much tuck with factory offset...

Also they last half as long as Billies before they need to be revalved.

It's been a while since I've updated so here it goes,

After installing a cat less dump pipe the car is going in to singleton exhaust to get a highflier cat installed - mates rates
Ive ordered and installed the abs battery cover from phat.
I've ordered front and rear whiteline adjustable sway bars to be installed while I'm on holiday. Curtousy of taylor (t.renshaw)
I've ordered an ultrex front strutbar.
I've ordered not yet paid for a Kobe top mount inter cooler and stop tech brakepads. (jacks-gtb)
The car is booked in for it's windows to be tinted while I'm on holidays.

Finally the car is booked in for a tunatoms install of silicon intake pipes at MSR on the 30th October this will give me a bit of time to get the above items installed

I'll be in Singapore and Thailand for the next 2.5 weeks. After that we will see, depends on how good looking the ladyboys are in Thailand.

Em already knows stew after I sold my car she said is I could spend 2.5 k on this car. What she doesn't know is how much I have and will be going over that amount. :lol:

Time for another update,

TMIC is installed thanks to jackson. Due to the size of the TMIC the strut brace wont fit which is a pain in the arse but I'm working on it.
Swaybars are in I unfortunately haven had much chance to feel the difference.
Waiting on LCA bushes to be installed by subaru but I might wait until after the tune.
Tune has been pushed up to the 25th at 1pm. If anyone wants to join me at msr?
The windows are being tinted the following day.

In other news my mrs is 17 weeks pregnant so the mods will be slowing up after the tune.
Baby is not even born yet and it's changing my life.
I can't go to targa Tasmania now was looking forward to it as I was gunna help out a mate who is competing in it.
Limited my funds for the car.
Less time on Xbox.
The list will go on.

Congrats! Actually, everything changes!
It's the best thing you'll ever do, and having a baby is up there too :P

Got a pic of intercooler vs. strutbrace?
