- gutted cat

- cheapie FMIC

- blitz suspower pod

- exedy clutch

- Microtech LT16 with hand controller

I would go a better turbo, but then u need afm, injectors and fuel pump so thats about ~3-5k

so instead I would go a decent non restrictive cat so you dont get f**d if you get pulled over and some rims.

hey guys, yea I want performance, but in a holistic sense (so handling too) JDM drift pig lol.

I am not after subs, more weight, have a decent head deck and speakers.

sorry forgot to mention too that I have 17" Enkei Racing S wheels (cant afford TE37s or Meisters lol)

also have walbro fuel pump and the microtech has a MAP sensor so no AFM woes for me lol

lol 2k is a long way off that 35

eney how i would say get rid of that shitty kkr.

but on the other hand maby do the cage and susspension arms/sway bars make it handle better.

seat would be good as well

Larger injectors, new turbo and tune!

car will get a high mount in about a year...don't want another low mount. so since I can't afford the manifold etc so no new turbo atm

and I only have 2k to spend, the car was tuned last week...so mainly handling and seats, diff etc

Ok off to the handling area then :D

Far better responses in there :)

haha yeah sorry bout that, thanks :D

yea was thinking sway bars and camber arms, is it possible to get a 1.5 or 2 way for 500 to 1000 bucks?

What tires are you using atm?

2k..

f/r adjustable swaybars - 500

second hand lsd - say 800

aggressive street wheel alignment + corner weighting - $350

Strip the car (start with boot and rear) depending on personal preference/usage - free

Bit of money left over for install help if you cant diy/some replacement bushes.

Depending on how low it is, you might not need adjustable sussy arms etc. The factory stuff gives a small range of adjustment and is generally enough to do an aggressive street setup if the car's not too low (check the bushes condition though).

    • There aren't boost creep issues, it's not engineered around the restriction of the cats but if you haven't tuned the engine a full decat + exhaust can flow enough air to run off the end of the OEM load scales and you will get a pretty substantial reduction in ignition timing as a result. I recommend using DFCO, avoiding ignition cut limiters, and avoiding popcorn tunes along with running a cat unless you enjoy a perpetually soot-covered and potentially burnt bumper.
    • Small update, it's been slow moving over the Christmas period with money having to go everywhere thats not my car 😅. I got myself a little present to myself from "santa" in the form of some tidy radiator mounts from fitmint automotive to get rid of the stock ones that look like they have been in an accident before and then straightened by a caveman. I know I should've replaced the rubber bush at the same time but I had no idea how bad they were until I was replacing the mounts. Decided to order their dash mat while I was at it as I feel like I am lucky enough to have a pretty decent condition dash and I don't want to risk it being ruined while it's parked in the aussie sun while I'm at work. I have found another electrical fault to add to the evergrowing list to eventually chase down. Every time I replace my taillight globe it blows within a day of use, I'm starting to think my life would be easier if I took a few minutes to learn how to use  a multimeter 😂.   Had some luck with finding a series 2 drivers headlight on marketplace to replace my mismatched series 1 headlight, a subtle difference but it's nice to have a matching set of lights now.   I returned to the air con problem due to being sick of this summer heat, found a good condition condenser to replace my leaking one! I got it in the car and was happy when I got the thumbs up that the system was now holding gas. Sadly the compressor is not kicking in for some reason, we even tried branching the relay in the fuse box. I have tried to do some research on the issue with no clear understanding of what the fix is, so for now it will be placed on the backburner until I can be bothered to look into the wiring to the compressor. The last small mods I have done was cutting the horizontal vents out of the front bar, not really in a functional airflow sense but I just think it looks better as I am not a fan of the series 2 bar. I also switched the shift knob out for a hosoboyo aluminium grex style one, it has a really nice more direct driving feel than the outdated rubbery oem one. Thirdly, I chucked on one of the ebay bonnet strut kits. The fitment is decent and they seem to work fairly well. They have only given out once while the car was parked facing downhill, I think if I was working under the bonnet I would still put the oem hood stay up to be precautionary as to avoid getting a speedy concussion.
    • Got pneumonia, haven’t played with her in a while, but I’m back now. Previous owners cut bonnet pins into the bonnet. My choice try find a replacement or spend $15 get some pins myself to cover up. Now only one small hole to cover. looks shit now, but when the bonnet is red again. Be good 🤞
    • No R32 GTSt had 15" wheels. 205/55-16 was standard GTSt fare. 4.36:1 is standard R32 turbo auto diff. I think the manual was too, not 4.11. 4.11 and 4.08 were R33 namual and auto respectively.
