Default What mods are you planning ?

Lets hear what you are planning to do to your scoob.

Im looking at a few things at the moment.

performance
Reverse throttle body / intake manifold to shorten the fmic pipework

cryo spray bar to force co2 through the intercooler to cool the charge also toying with the idea of a dry N20 kit with purge vents.

Styling

full Jdm look for the up and coming show season

jdm front spats / number plate / decals / tilt brackets

working on a bit of a sound system got the sub enclosure sorted 2 amps / 2 10" subs bit of neon lighting and neatly tucked away in the boot.

General

Full engine rebuild as per my oil leak topic

replacement of oem parts with aftermarket, braided hoses and lines where possible relining of clutch new brake pads all round.

winters a wonderful time

Styling

Wheel Refurb and maybe 18" Speedline Turinis
Dent removal and maybe a bit o paint here and there to freshen up the old girl
Engine Bay bling.. i`m a sucker for it.. and carbon.

Performance
Nothing.. tho i fear after tonight with mr. sheen and bungle (j16 jrf) i`ll be wanting some goodness.

seriously tho :
Blitz or Greddy Boost controller
Bell mouth Decat
Vf22 turbo
and whatever else i need.. an STi TMIC would be nice too

Styling = complete

engine = H&S Sports cat with Andy F remap and samco intercooler hoses.


erm no suprise to some on here..............more carbon dress up for the engine bay probably.
definately be leaving the engine as it stands after remap around 300 bhp is more than enough for the road i feel.

Changes weekly like most i'm sure. Sometimes i want Bride seats, then i fancy a set of 18s, but love my RE070 tyres too much, then i think about the suspension. However first on the list is a remap this Wednesday, don't know if i'll ever get round to the rest.

the good thing with the sports is they are that understressed as standard they can take a bit of mucking about and, the box in mine once unplugged and the battery disconnected,once you reconnect it all its self learning to a point anyhow..

plug in go
