Thanks guys, im so happy with it!

I think the first mod will be tinted windows. Because its cheap and makes a huge difference.

Then the exhaust to get the rex growl! It sounds like a turbo diesel at the moment, its kinda cute though.

Nice to know I cant get defected! No fear of the Po Po for once! :P

Go and join rexnet before you do many mods, with anything past the classic range the ecu's don't learn big mods (like exhuasts and the like) so if you do a full exhaust budget a ecutek tune....Rexnet is ur friend

Cheers,

That is really good to hear! I was after something reliable with performance and im hoping that is exactly what I get. From what I have heard they are pretty hardy things and the performance and handling is speaking for itself!

I havnt ventured onto Rexnet yet. I have looked at S&J Automotive and they seem to be the Go to place for Rex's. They have some performance packages that look alright, as do Exhaust Technology.

First mod to do to it you can do at home...Get rid of the intake resonator and replace it with a cold air feed straight into the airbox from the guard! Makes massive difference! Just take the inner guard lining off from the RH side of the car and you'll see what i mean!
