Another RX crying out for some projectors... That silver is quite a nice colour.

I would have gone to the kitchen, collected a brown bag, dropped my dacks, pinched off a loaf in said bag, done up dacks, stickytaped bag, placed bag in envelope, and mailed it right to your face for being such a tool.


It's ok, sometimes when we herp, we also derp.

Nice pictures.
I love the road and countryside out to Charters from Townsville.
One of the nicest 65 minutes I've ever driven. :ph34r:
As Tony Montana would say:

I cant warrant spending so much on lights that already work... Yet.

'work' is a bit of a relative term... Candles work too, only difference is they put out more light than the standard AUDM headlights.

You won't know the difference til you put them in anyway. I thought my audm lights were fine in my old car. Then I went to projectors in my new car. Then I fitted 4300k hids.


WINRAR!

And that is how you will lose your P's.

Be careful mate. You dont want all that hard work going to waste.

Throw in the greens, green peace, unhcr, save the forking children and I've well and truly hit my limit for the number of fuckstains wanting me to sign something or give money. Seriously cubts,  :fork: right off.

Flick switch inbetween front seats.

Use steering column stalk to control speed.

Down = set
Up = resume

Pull back to cancel!

Or brake or clutch!

Switches on the pedals could be faulty.


Mine doesn't even have a clutch switch, scared the crap outta me the first time I was on cruise and went to change gears!!!

Yesturday i installed my suspension, took me 8 hours in total.
They are 1cm lower all round. Replaced stocks (160,000klms) with GC8 STi reds (Aprox 70,000klms).
Had to swap top hats for rear, they werent an exact match but they fit.
Holy shit was it a pain in the arse to swap the hats. Alen key and some vicegrips attached to a socket. One of the threads snapped where the alen key goes, luckily there was a guy across the road with a welder putting a fence togeather... got him to weld some dags onto the shaft the grabbed that with the grips then used a ratchet on the socket up top, (This was the old one). Was done in seconds.... just had 3 more to do :P

So the old suspension cannot be put back togeather, And the new ones barely came apart without breaking them. Thank god its done, total of 8 hours and my bones hurt everywhere!

Just went for the day after test drive. Holy shit they are so differant! i can feel every bit of the road and it sits so flat through corners!

Didnt take many photos because i was flat out just doing the work. I did get this tho.
