What did you do to your car today?

[91ssr]

I fitted a 12" sub with 900watt amp into the rear of my toyota surf today. it rocks now with a mix of clarion and kenwood speakers plus the sub. i'm sure the rear number plate is going to vibrate loose soon.

bought a fusion amp and read instructions. once fitted the stereo sound turned off once i turned it up to 20. could'nt figure it out so changed all wiring to larger gauge wire. still no go. ended up going to auto store and buying a splitter for the rca cable. with the rca lead run through the splitter it all worked fine. am a newbie with anything electrical but got this fixed and can rock now. cheers all.

This was actually yesterday but I was out all day and had no time to post here.

I bought a new set of rims for the Aurion. Yep... Just 18 inch. 18x8 PDW NOVA's with Pirelli Tyres (not sure on model have to check.) 235/40R18 i beleive, so thats a little wider than normal. They look really nice but ive had no time to take photos yet. So I'm going out now to do that! Also I had heat resistant stuff attached to my lower front strut brace to prevent knocking at full accel, does wonders! :D Still going to try and get a modified exhaust system perfected that doesnt fail. :P

Other than that, today I'm going to put some fuel in her as she needs it after the trip to Blackwood and back and then give her a wash she deserves now that she has shiny new rims and a dirty body... :P haha

Should have elaborated, g/f bought a new (well, newer) ST162 to replace the AE82 which is falling to bits.

[Suprathai]

Retightened bolts on the rear end of the car...........still can't get rid of that stupid creaking noise, thinking that maybe the bushes have gone to heaven and need a possible replacement set soon *sigh*

Got a speeding fine for 3km over >.> It's my new tyres putting my speedo off I swear.

[kobbsno10]

I put my new shark fin antenna on the car, looks pretty cool although I'm not too proud of my work as it's not exactly lined up correctly I'll have to take some pics soon and get them up here.

Nice work mate, must be good to have her on the road. Unbolted rear muffler to listen how loud she is. Not as bad as i thought it might sound, might do something there.
