Hey guys thought it was about time I made a build thread,
Originally I got it for cheap due to it having a few issues (mainly service items) with those fixed up by the time got my ls. It stayed stock during that time, only addition was JDM projector lights due to the light output of the stock lights being so bad.
I also got to take it up into the bush quite a few times before the suspension upgrade which was mad fun. For a stock car it handled the tracks and rutty sections perfectly, better than dads Hilux to an extent J
By the time I got my ps and joined up to subyclub and got a job, I finally had money to upgrade some aspects of the car. The first purchase was an RX front bar with foglights (still not done), and a heap of other little things (ill update the list below when I remember)
After a year on my ps I was sick of the auto slush box and decided to do a manual conversion, I purchased a wreck for $500 bucks and striped all the manual bits out of it and parted the rest of it out. It basically only cost me a few hundred bucks and I scored some whiteline sway bars out of it cant complain.

Good work Rob, All the little things you learn now come in handy later on
Doing a Manual conversion would scare of a lot of people, you've done well!

I should just convert to single, right?As soon as she hands it to you, slowly take of your pants, then, while staring her straight in the eyes rub it against the tip of you penis, while continuing your painfully intense gaze whisper to her;

Nice man, you finally made a build topic!
Car has come a fair way man, and well done on the conversion. Like everyone has said, that is something a lot of people are afraid to do.
Wanting to buy/looking for: single genuine STi rim, genuine STi front lip, Corazon or Zero/Sports grille and another OEM grille
Can you hook a brother up? Please contact me now. I have cash ready.

Cool Rob.
Any idea how much the kartboy pitch mounts cost?

Quoted $135 from Ben at ichiban, that's about on par with car mods aus but postage would make car mods more expensive

Nice going mate.
I like to think of it as borrowing someone's car and driving it better than them.
