    Does this belong? Ryan's new whip, Project TOPLESS

    yeah yeah so ive been going on lately about posting a new thread, but i didnt want to make a big deal out of it! it was evident that something new and different was coming with the sudden sale of my beloved FN2 (which has now gone to a lovely home in Port Macquarie). i parted ways with her on 18/07/13, and nek minnut, a few stacks of greens were laid in front of me WUT TO DOOOO?!?! haha nah it was all going to plan!

    previously i placed a deposit on a banana lookin thing that was patiently waiting for my return, and with my wad of cash, i was rushed to Bonnyrigg Heights, driven by my mega awesome buddy Nathan (wongy) to pick up this machine!! and yeah while i thought it was unknown to others what i was getting, bloody bastard Nathan decided to SHARE a secret, not keep it lol...no worries still love ya man.

    okay lets not be gay. pictures you ask....well okayyyyy
    but only a quick snap okay?! cant show it all yet haha





    so under my new ownership, i decided to restore it to the best of conditions.
    as far as my mechanic and i know, i need to recondition my driveshafts and the car vibrates under heavy acceleration, so that's gonna be done first. cosmetically, i know its been tracked before, so there's quite a lot of stone chips at the front. now im contemplating whether or not i should do a full respray so it can look brand spanking new again. what are your thoughts? i got quoted $1500 for front respray, or $2500 for full respray (both panel surface only).

    meanwhile, i sought out to do the smaller things, like polishing it up!

    from old, ugly, pale


    to shimmering, shiny, sexy!


    thats all for now folks, tune in next time!!
    oh and please, give her a warm welcome

                              Thanks for the warm welcome guys!!

                              So my very first update has been swapping out all the dull T10 globes for LED replacements

                              I swapped out the number plate lights, front indicator lights and interior cabin lights. Here are some pics!





                              Not everyone likes them though, but I personally like them heaps, bring out a modern touch I think. Sounds gay, I'll stop lol.

                              Next up! Speakers!! The oem ones were distorting and rattling, so I bought a nice pair of JL Audio CX650 coaxial speakers to replace. Check out the difference!!



                              The magnet is quite big compared to stock, so it didn't fit the stock adaptors. I effectively butchered a thicker spacer in half and used that instead.



                              All fits nice and snug, but it sucks how I forget to take further progress pics lol. My bad!!

                              Anyway, this has been my day!! Thanks for reading!
