To get this badass system

Pyle PL212DS DUAL SLIM DESIGNED BASS BOX SYSTEM

I also would recommend this site on eBay for spare parts, I got some second hand 2.5" 63mm exhaust from them at a great value!
Also another site I have been using to get daily deals is www.groupon.ie but this is only useful for you folks that live in Ireland for car parts.

Changed the front of the car to add some strength to the control arms, changed old bushes, changed hubs, inner and outter CVs and shafts for stronger units, removed sunroof, replaced all pulleys to lighter units, replaced some wiring, replaced map sensor, Crank sensor system altered/improved.

Just waiting on either the OS Gieken twin plate clutch or an ECC designed Quartermaster small diameter multiplate clutch and light flywheel then turning on the nitrous. Also changing the windows, changing the bootlid, changing the bonnet and changing the seat to a lighter seat, also changing boost control from the E01 to ECU controlled/gear based control. Having the engine stripped and inspected then rebalanced with the new clutch. Few other wee fiddly bits.

Once thats all done it back out to play hopefully with over 600hp

Nothing massive for me.

Manifold, downpipe and piggyback ecu to get the TD04 I have running would be nice.

Other than that just gonna be driving it and servicing it.

My 5E

My Glanza is currently at Tuning Developments getting :

-Fully forged 5E
-Custom TD race spec head with cams/cruise valvesprings
-TD05 and Zisco external wastegate mani
-560cc injectors and fuel rail
-2.5" Exhaust system
-Oil cooler
-Full size alloy rad
-Yellow stuff pads with cusco BMC
-Torque damper
-TRD diff and EP82 box
-Emanage Ultimate

Its taken me ages to acquire all these bits and save for labour charges, so exited to get her back on the road and mapped :-D

you guys have massive plans for your rides. i'll just be doing the basics if i can, like a more efficient exhaust mani, fmic & relocated air filter, which i've already done.. :)

screen location

hey turboJohn, nice head unit.. i'd take it BUT.. and this is my opinion only, i hate the way the starbo double-dins for the stereo are always so low down on the center console. it would be a little hard to use for stuff like GPS but that's just me. i'm hoping to get a dedicated video screen then mount that slightly above the glove box area. will be using it mostly for GPS and a few in-car videos..

^^ x2 have to agree, my double din can be a pain in the ass because the gearstick gets in the way of most of the buttons if your in 3rd or 5th lol.
