silver 03 ****r

[doriae86]

hey guys

thought i would post a pic up of my rolla - might get around to taking some more one day

the car is an 03 model i purchased march last yr for $15k

currently @ 60,000km, mechanically and cosmetically its pretty much stock, probably the way it will stay aswell.

i have done some minor mods to improve the car's major flaws as follows;

suspension;

koni 'sports' yellow struts, king spring super low's, whiteline rear sway bar, front and rear camber bolts + cusco front strut brace.

interior;

pioneer double din ipod deck, pioneer amp & sub

exterior;

tinted windows & roof racks to carry kayak and mountain bike :)

future mods;

powder coat factory wheels black

nah in perth mate - i will be getting them sand blasted just for the sake of durability

super lows are fine - im not sure why every1 seems so scared of them, the car really isnt that low

camber bolts adjust the angle of the wheel which allows a greater surface area of the tyre to remain in contact with the tarmac during hard cornering!

speakers - hrm. Only got the stockers atm running off the pioneer deck. Actually made them half decent but will change them sometime in the future :)

also - getting my semi slicks put on my 15 inch rims tomorrow.

heres the rims & the tyres.

Looking foward to doing some track dayz :)

[doriae86]

fitted 1kg fire extinguisher today (requirement for most track days)

simple matter of drilling holes in your car and screwing the mount into place ;)

also, while i was in the car decided to take a pic of the pioneer cd player i installed a while ago.

Has ipod control so cut a hole in the back of the centre console and ran a USB cable through. Nice secluded ipod mount. Also ran the remote gain control for the amp through to this point aswell.

Damn that sucks bro.

[jaderd]

any idea why it sheered off....you didnt tighten the clamps too tight did ya ? was it new or second hand?

good luck with new hose

[doriae86]

no idea why it sheered

have installed plenty of fmic kits on my other cars and sold performance car parts for the best part of 4 years so i would say im qualified to do up a clamp :)

the kit was brand new, arrived from the usa on friday
