So what type of other modification are you thinking about buying (interior & exterior).


I'm looking at getting an exhaust in the up coming months, otherwise with the car only being DE maybe cams or something?

Definitely need some series 2 tail lights though lol. And eventually respray haha

Do you have any modifications you're gonna do to your ride?

Yeah I have a couple modification planned for my car. I will be put red leather interior (for the seats back and front). For the exterior I am thinking about purchasing a wide body kit. And also Automatic lambo doors.

I think I should have this all done by mid next year.

Yeah looks good, beware drive ways and speed bumps through.....

Yeah I have to slow down quite a fair bit because my suspension is super bouncy haha.

I also have a weird squeak noise coming from the front left... not too sure what it is though lol

Forget the cams - you need a turbo!

But short of that some well made extractors would help...

I would love a turbo but being only 17, insurance would be a pain, along with cert etc haha

I've been recommended to go to Pitstop out at the airport for my exhaust.. got about $700 so that should be enough to give a decent enough system I hope.

Well even though I said I would buy bodykits for my car. Instead I decided I would purchase a Twin Turbo Kit. It will take a week before I get it and probably another week for installation.

I agree with KiwiRS4T, put the money in upgrading the engine, suspension and brakes first.
You can work on its appearance and exhaust later down the track.

      Could you modify this duct so instead it pushes the extra air through the radiator too and not down and out? For temps, I know it's not the greatest idea, but as a bit of a last resort, you could use a very intermittent misting spray onto the front of the coolers/rad. You don't want to be soaking them such that water is dripping off, but a small most on/off so that the water evaporates. That point of it constantly evaporating, rather than being soaked in water, will pull a LOT of heat out of the cooler. I'm literally thinking just the little mist sprayers for a garden from Bunnings. Being in a low humidity climate it will help even more! The other trick if you want to be ghetto is some shade cloth hung in the opening, and keep it wet. Pretty much now it's acting like an evap cooler on a house, but cooling the air you need to use to cool the radiator...   On a topic to think about too though, when air enters through the bumper, is it all nicely ducted from the edges of that opening back at a nice angle, or is it like most cars, and the edge of the opening just stops, and suddenly it's wayyy wider behind that? If it does the later, get it shrouded out at nice angles. When that opening changes too rapidly, it can actually cause a high pressure zone between the front bar and radiator, and limit air flow into that area, which means less air for cooling, as it effectively stalls the air, AND adds to drag...

      It doesn't look like there's a lot of options out there these days, and what's out there is performance oriented aftermarket stuff (with the GTR markup) I wonder if there are other cars with similar springs, after all its just a matter of length, diameter and stiffness. Alternatively, I did see coil spacers. Probably not the best option, but could be serviceable too.
