Vic's GE8 Down Under

Greetings everyone!

I'm from Australia, and am keen to join the jazz community!
(technically the girlfriends car, but i see some light modifications coming in the near future..I myself drive an MR2 SW20 97 NA)

SO - It's a 2008 VTi-S (our top spec), pretty good condition, just needs some tidying up, picking it up in the next few days!

Plans (asap):
OEM Rear Spoiler
OEM Window Visors
Red H Badges
Tinted Windows
Double DIN dash panel + head unit upgrade

Plans (long term):
Wheels
Lower
Chargespeed front lip or facelift front and rear (depending on part availability and price!)
Upgrade front seats

Looking forward to trawling through everyones build threads, and actually driving this thing!

Sorry.. Only one pic for now! We were so excited we forgot to take some of the whole car haha.



Cheers,
Vic.

So first thing we purchased, before the car haha..





New from Honda, we weren't happy with the look of the stock radio, time to give the interior a more modern feel

Girlfriend has also ordered a double din head unit from Pioneer.

Weekend approaching means install time and making the interior immaculate!

Pics of said SW20 please, thanks. We didn't get them after 95 in the US. Still one of my favorite cars.

Haha sure thing Badwrench, pic is slightly outdated but it sits similar..just have amber indicators and repeaters now essentially.



97 NA (aus delivered vehicles were all non-turbo, and i got it when i was on my restricted license)

Further plans for that: aeroware front lip waiting to go on (shineauto replica) as well as 16" BBS RS slant lips waiting to be refurbed when i find some time!

Gah! Keep the Advans! That is the wheel I picture for that car! Just get rid of the rear wing, add your air dam and call it perfect!
