New mods / Upgrades 2008?
OK then, who has any mods planned for 2008 and what are they?
Tiny - some go to compliment all that show?
Frayz - to complete the much talked about 2.5?

New shocks/springs, Anti-lift kit, and brakes all going on in the next few weeks (getting ready for Brands on 22nd Feb), then probably new engine after it blows at Brands!!!
If it doesn't blow i'm getting some bodywork sorted (rusty arches) and rear tints, and maybe some carbon goodies.
After that i've been told by my fiancee we're getting getting our own place this year, so the mods will be on hold for a while. (about 25-30 years i think)

Hmm, don't think Ross is the only one? 
After foolishly getting on a set of scales recently, Have decided it's time to improve my own power to weight ratio, can't stand the idea of a diet, so it will have to be more exercise. But before i start, had to mod and upgrade my chosen method of pain infliction (exercise).
Fitted a lovely set of XT shifters and a Georgeous Charge Spoon saddle today, just need to sun to come out and a bit of motivation, and i'm on the road to slimness!

Mine have started with:
HID upgrade and LED side lights
Rear Whiteline ARB and droplinks,
Better horn (when it works
)
Carbon fibre STi door sills
Smoked side repeaters.
Planned:
either whiteline or prodrive lowering springs
front ARB
Anti lift kit
Braided brake hoses
some sort of grooved discs front & rear
tint the rear windows JDM stylee
And probably going to be a sheep with the Spec C roof vent
Bigger turbo or 2.5 build (not sure on this yet )
Front half resprayed (possibly whole car)
Different set of alloys (18"s)
That will do for now
