.: Projects

Do to the amount of work required to transfer my current DIY's I am going to provide a quick link to them currently being house on Audizine. This will give you a quick place to find your favourite DIY's until I get them over here as well. Enjoy.

There is a lot done to my car already that I had completed as I picked up the car (intercooler, exhaust, coil over's, APR tuned... to name a few). I will try and log those changes and show some pictures as an interest point. Unfortunately those mod's do not have DIY's but I will provide feed back and what ever pictures I was able to snap during the installations.
