Hey All

24 July 2011 - 07:12 PM

Hey everyone,

Introducing myself like a good newb lol. Name I go by is Skippy, currently on red P's (though green in less then 4weeks). I live south of the river near adventure world. I'm more or less 'new' to the car scene around perth, I've been on a couple of cruises with mates but that's about it due to my car is well... you'll see!


My car, which I have a passion for, and my whole intention for it from day one was a quick FWD car. The car: 2004 Mitsubishi CH Lancer, Manual, 2L (4G94 SOHC), Black, Hail-Damage (lolz)

Day one! Right off the tray of the RAC from the auctions!

Hail Damage extent, though it's going to get fixed by myself, once the engine is complete (more below)

The base for the perfomance.

The new wheels for it! Plus current height before I get coilovers!

Crappy image of my foglights, pulled off a VRX and put on a ES front bar (lolz), so it has ghetto mounts!

Current Mods:
Black surround altezzas
White non-HID globes and parkers
Foglights
New gearknob
Changed globes to bright white LED's behind aircon and speedo
Kicker Splits x2
Kicker 6"s x2
Kicker 4channel amp
Kicker 12" sub(vented)
Kenwood bluetooth Headunit w/ Ipod Integration
(All mods were DIY)
New bonnet (white) ready for hail damage respray

Plans:
Install FTO bucket seats (paid and being shipped)
Buy Evo3 front brakes with drilled rotors and hubs to fit on my 4x100 wheels
GT-R R33 turbos (deposited)
Custom top-mount turbo manifold
Custom Turbo back straight pipe with lukey muffler and hi-flow cat
New ECU and tune
FMIC (black)
GSR rear disk conversion for mod plate
coilovers (money put aside)
Re-trim rest of interior with black fabric/suede
Fix Hail-damage with bog/new pannels
custom boot install w/ inverted subs x2 10" rockford if I can afford
CG rear end conversion.

Thats the plans... now more pictures taken from my thread elsewhere!

(If you don't know its the little piece of metal that extends the bracket on the fog lights.
