Well this is the car I bought when I traded my KE30 in. I must say it is alot of fun compared to a K engine. Well I guess anything is fun compared to a K engine lOl

Its the 2.5Ltr model with all the bells and whistles. Tho I wish it was the turbo'd model sometimes. Well thats always a maybe in the future :D

 

Not many plans for her as of yet. I was thinking of getting larger rims. Maybe black with a little bit of polished dish. The brakes on this car like to dust up the wheels pretty quickly.

I am hoping to be able to buy factory mats as there are anchor points for them. I also am wanting the factory rubber strip that lays on the back bumper so when you load stuff you don't damage the paint.

I will need to most likely get the bumpers repainted too. Both front and back have a couple of dings and chips. Maybe even get something better for the front?

I'm thinking against lowering it as it will lose all practicality. I was scrubbing on the camping trip just gone so any lower would mean I can't load it up right.

Also the current head unit is a double din unit. I would really like something that has a touch screen, is a DVD and plays MP3's with USB capabilities.

 

Well here are some pics...

I think I need to break up the colour a bit tho. The interior is too bland.

Update

 

Well I've been gone for a while and as I have sold/given away all my cars/parts, I though I'd update the only ride I have.

 

So thankfully after two non faulted insurance claims I have the rear bar, front bar, drivers rim & drivers guard repaired. And a new inner guard, drivers headlight and headlight protector. I can thank the drunk P plater that tried ramming my car off the road for that. Was quite frightening to see his car do a 360 in front of my very eyes tho.

 

But anyway here is my car now. I got detailing and gave it a couple coats of polish :)

 

Oh and it finally has a name. Her name is Uber!!
