Default My Scooby is staying and im treating her



Dont need to sell her anymore so she is no longer for sale

Instead im hopefully treating her to the following this month

- Full fluid change (Brakes, Gearbox, front & rear diff)
- New Fuel filter
- New non-resonated 2.5" centre section
- Mocom Remap
- 4 new Tyres after spotting a great Costco offer on Pilots

After that plan is when i next have spare cash...

- Alloy Droplinks all round
- Rear adjustable 24mm ARB

Close to my 1 year anniversary of ownership so waited a while before modding her but feel time is right. Only other car thats been this good out of the box so i didnt mod it within a year was my Integra DC5.

Any other suggestions of little things to do? by little i mean cost effective

Believe it or not don't bother with the front drop links. having spoken to Gaz The Hat and Powerstation they recommend the OE items.

Get some Eibachs if you don't have the pink springs.

With the remap get some gauges to keep an eye on the temps/boost.

How's about some rear tints to top it off.

We'll all help to get the money pit going!

Ah cheers ill get the oem ones checked and leave be if ok

I think mine had the prodrive springs fitted as extra option?

Gauges seem good idea actually, some subtle ones that dont involve any cutting would be good

Im not a tints fan, but keep ideas coming

Its PPP so has the sports cat in the downpipe, love the note as it is but told the oem centre section is bit restrictive but also making it non-resonated gives off that extra burble.

At least i think thats right

Like to keep the PPP setup of the downpipe, de-cat pipe and backboxes.

I'd add the ALK with the rear ARB and a good 4w geom.
