H Everyone,

New (3rd hand) MY02 manual B4 owner in Sydney, coming from an NA straight 6, loving the kick from the 2nd turbo in 3rd gear. Tough to find places to enjoy it though.

Hi & welcome! Any pictures hiding away somewhere? hehe

Hmm, nothing online.
White 2001 my02 B4, all stock.

Maintenance, upgrades planned:
1. New tyres (have ordered from tire rack before, probably go that option again) - conti extreme contact DW look good, well priced at USD440 for 4, plus (expensive) postage which will probably more than double the price. Plus installation at spinning wheel.
2. New rear brakes and rotors, $320 from supercheap for DBA rotors and Bendix pads, will try to install these myself.
3. Eonon head unit to replace stock macintosh one $285, will try to install myself.
4. A good clean, clay and polish. Quite a few swirls in the paint, lots of surface contamination. Also get some good leather conditioner into the seats.

After these 4 works are completed, the car will be in great shape, it's done 94,500kms and has already had the 100k service with timing belt etc.

Love a tune for some better low end grunt, it's hard to use the power of this car in most driving conditions, from my few drives so far, 3rd gear above 4500 rpm is where it's at, and your moving pretty quickly already at that point.
Not spending $1000's on a tune though, just had a kid which is why we went to a sedan, before this I was driving a 125i coupe.. The 125 had much better low end torque.

Loving the scuby so far

Ordered Eonon G2240 yesterday with Subaru harness adapter, hopefully arrives early next week for a following weekend install.
