Whats your project?

[Anonymous]

Basically this is a post where we can put up the current 'projects' or things we are doing to our cars. Possible get help, get ideas, etc.

Currently i'm working on my ICE. Building my boot to house 2 Rockford 12" and an amp of some sort. Will be using a heap of different materials. MDF, glass, perspex and some fibre-glassing aswell. Thats my main project for the moment.

The most important thing i ned to do atm is wash and clean my car! Once i wash it, i know my power-to-weight ratio will improve


So what are you guys working on atm, if anything at all, or what have you got planned for the future?

Clear my debt first! (ON THE HOME STRETCH NOW!!)

Brake upgrades - Looking at going for an EBC pad and Rotor combination.
Exhaust and Manifold upgrade - a 4 into 1 header - Possibly a Remus exhaust...but make the thing quiet, but still with some kick.
Wheels - Get some nice 17's for my car. Maybe some Lenso or GMax.
Grille - Front mesh grille for bonnet and between the fog lights.
May lower it at the same time i get the wheels done
Side mirrors - with indicators

Interior -
New leather gear boot and handbrake gaiter in a dark or royal blue color.
Do the dash surround in the same color paint
New front seats and may retrim the rear seats.
Red footwell lighting - yes, neons on the INSIDE. Just to light up the footwells. Red light district! :wink:

ICE -
Amp - Type to be decided
Speakers - new splits front and back

Optimistic? YOU BETCHA!

For me..

This weekend change my mX force muffler which has a whole on it from a faulty bracket.
Next weekend installing my ICE (finally). Pioneer H/U trying to hook it up to remote control on sterring wheels too (might be tricky).
Scheinder amp 800 RMS x2 digital amp, Blapunkt 400 RMS x 4 amp, and my JVC 6 inch splits at the front.

The week after put my new BOV in the car, and install my under car neons too.

Well pick up the SRI turbo next thursday , take it home , install BOV and opel badges , de-restrict air box and put a k&n filter in and hopefully the day after get a new exhaust.

Dont plan on putting a big system in this car as im sick of all the rattles that the Astra F has from the 2x12ich kicker subs in the boot.

Future mods include lookin at some ecu upgrade and lowered suspension.

Buy my amp, its in the FS section!

I've got my ICE gear organised, just waiting on it to arrive from Germany then it can be installed. The car will be a demo car for Sydney/NSW for two brands of audio...which means I have to change all my interior lighting to blue and some EL guages. Might have to retrim the Barina's doors in vinyl depends on the installer and what he thinks.

Of course, those eyelids need to be put on from Sed Efrika.

After that, buy some rubber for the 16" SRi wheels I have in the garage, or sell them and go to 17s.


Then it's onto a Reiger kit but that can wait til next year.

most of the mods will be fixing fuxored things, servicing and maintaining the bloody thing. probably get around to fixing my exhaust rattle and getting new tires sooner or later.
