Thanks for the pics just had a look and it looks good and can I ask why you installed it, and yes I'm a noob

Well what I ran into it were the PCV pipes which leak out small amounts of goop (which I assume is some oil or petrol) and by law your not suppose to expell that goop into the atmosphere so it goes back into the intake to be re-burnt. But I put the catch there so it dribbles into that the just gets fresh normal air. The amount is fairly minimal so the catch would probably never fill up.

Thanks for explaining and I have learnt something today

[Jack_Keaka]

But you probably shouldnt listen to me!
One thing I have learnt is that one mechanic will say one thing and an experienced car guy will say something else, so being a noob myself I have found just to try things anyway. If it doesn't work out then hey, at least I'll have fun fixing it!

Thats true lol and it all part of the fun of modifying a car! And which BC coilovers are you going to get in the BC range? I got the BR series and they are awesome, handles like a dream

not sure. i was also looking at what Kido had to offer. I'm rather undecided unfortunately.

Im a bit like Dr Jeckyl and Mr Hyde. one says "finish this project" the other says "why waste the cash and just get a GT-B"... grrrr

Same here! I can never make up my mind, in the end I just go for it and I'm sure whatever coilovers you go for you will love them and I hear Kido are really good

And even if you got a GT-B you will still do all the same mods anyways But you would have more power but that = more attention po po

[Jack_Keaka]

Yeah all the same mods but not as hands on. Also about 10x the cost for some unknown reason. I find all gen4 stuff is stupidly over priced. $$$

More power is the one I look forward to.

Sad face and I'm guessing its installed and you have pictures

And may I ask where you got your tint from?

That sucks and if you want you can get them to send it down to me

And I hope it does not either and question was it a pain with vicroads getting the custom plates?

lol you wish!

yeah it was a huge pain in my ass to get the plates! first time they cancelled the order for no reason and refunded me my money. didn't even know until weeks later i was getting suspicious at the lack of notification. then the second time around they took for fucking ever! but i have them now.

tint was from ebay for $1.90 + free postage

[Jack_Keaka]

Lip Installed! looks heaps better than i was expecting! so happy with it. photos don't do it justice. i do wish it were long enough to go to the edges, but for $35 i won't be picky. now just need to get rid of those fugly ghetto holes where my wing was!
