Hi everyone!!! :smt006
Been on here a while after puchasing my first Type-R last october and I have to say its absolutely AWESOME! So much better than any of my other cars, (clio, corsa, polo, ibiza, bora) its just EPIC!!! Well, I think it is anyway :lol:
Anyways I thought I'd start a little progress thread as I have a few plans in the pipelines despite promising myself and parents that this one would be kept 100% standard for all of my ownership!!...
Oh how we've all heard that one before!!! :twisted: :twisted: :twisted:
On to the car!!! -
2008 Milano Red FN2 with just 25,000 miles on the clock when I bought it (now 28k)
Heres some pics of the car after i brought it home and gave it a good clean
First thing was to sort out a new head unit because I couldn't stand not been able to use my ipod in the car
Who knew it could be such a costly job just to get a stereo fitted!! But ahwell I'm well pleased with it!!!
Next was a change of colour on the wheels as unfortunately I have noticed a few standard Milano reds around here
I decided to go for a very dark smoked chrome as I've had black on my previous cars and wanted something that stands out just that little bit more
Really pleased with how they turned out! Had them on only a day and seen a few heads turn already (have centre caps back on now too lol)
Also I ordered some ABP 30mm Eibachs at the weekend so I can dispose of that arch gap so they're getting fitted on saturday
Excuse my mates head had them delivered to his as hes fitting them and also to avoid disapproving parents haha
Future plans are -
ds2500's
powerslot big disc kit
braided lines
FRSU and 15mm spacers all round
Thats about it until autumn as I'm going to the nurburgring in august so will need to save up for that
After that im thinking -
catback exhaust
hks rsk
flashpro + map
All comments, ideas, tips and tricks welcome
Thanks for looking,
Dan
