G'day! I've had my MY10 5GEN GT Premium 5EAT since mid February and have more or less lurked these parts since then, so I figured it was about time I did one of these threads.
I come from a bit of a bogan family who are all about doing skids and making sick power with their V8s… which I admit can be a hell of a lot of fun… until you hit the twisty stuff and then it's downright scary. What drew me to the Liberty side of things was the fact that they are a bit of a wolf in sheep's clothing… there's so much satisfaction from burying the foot on a good bit of road and knowing that you're going to stick onto it and look a bit like a grandpa from the outside while doing it is hard to beat.
For now the car is stock as a rock aside from a set of Bridgestone RE003 225/45R18s I got put on about a month ago, and probably will remain that way externally for the foreseeable future. I love knowing that people don't quite expect it to get up and walk away when the hammer is down.
I'd love more torque between idle and boost, and better shift response out of the occasionally-nice-to-drive-with 5EAT for when I'm in the twisty bits. Could've gone manual, but I'm either sitting in traffic or driving hundreds of ks at a time on the highway so it didn't make much sense.
Mods I'm tossing up on:
EcuTek ECU tune
3" TBE, not sure what kind because I want it to stay as quiet as possible
RacerX TMIC
DBA HD4000 XS
Intima SS
+ probably some other crap if I can be bothered down the track
Anyway, hi
