Nice Tails, Sexay! ;)
Btw love the alpine stuff, mines the same, its a shame the red alpine subs/speakers are the better ones cuz the blue would go beta in my car, not so much a problemfor u :P
I started with a 2.5in lukey exhaust, but didnt get cat. Should get onto that but thats all ive done in terms of power and its a great one to start with, and anyway its not how fast u get there,its all about getting there in style - thats y i went down the aesthetic path,not the performance one. But thats just me :P
Good LUck and nice car!

yeah ive had a look, thing that sucks is i have limited mechanical knowledge so makes things a little hard haha.

but the 2.5 inch catback exhaust should make my ride abit tougher.
im thinking for my next mod, maybe lowering and some nice wheels once i have the money.

I really don't like the colour of my car though, i want to spray it but then again, money is an issue and the car has done 280'00 km so then the question 'is it really worth it' comes in to play ha.
