Good purchase, WTTC, stick around. Quick word of warning though, this forum is full of piss taking and flaming. None of us mean it, it's a cool place to chill and learn

Nah didn't like a few mods on that black one, + the money I saved on this I can put it towards insurance
It's got a very nice exhaust tip, I think it might be stock. As for the rest of the stuff I have no idea
By the way, the suspension feels a little stiff when going over dodgy roads etc. would that be my car or the FTO itself?

Check out this insurance thread for more details: http://www.ftoaustralia.com/modules.php ... forum&f=28-Nighthawk- wrote:Also, which is cheaper for insurance for a 19 year old in Victoria, Shannons or Just Car?
Just Car quoted $2000 + $1000 excess + $700 age excess, what would Shannons be? (don't have the FTO listed on their site)

dead quiet at idle
bit noisy with low revs but sounds awesome once you give it a bit

even though they are criminals, take it to pedders and get thier $14 suspension safety check. they give you a list of problems and let you have a look at your car while its up on the hoist.
WARNING!!!!!! don't let them do ANY work on your car, they are crap and will try to rip you off. but the safety check will let you know if there are any problems, can't go wrong for $14.

FTO's aren't a standard civic or anything like that, they are a sports car, and yes, the suspension is always firm standard (unless the car is fucked)-Nighthawk- wrote:Also, is the suspension always stiff on an FTO? When going over speedhumps etc. it doesn't feel too smooth. Would that be my car or the FTO in general?
