FTO AUSTRALIA

here ya go.. stop filling up my other thread with junk about safety crap... lol

plans are:

Tein Coilovers
LSD
Uprated CVs
Checking legality of cages
maybe safety harness
Some sort of launch controll?

cut loose with comments in here

Tein product graph.......


fto is compatible with the lancer CE.. so you probly have the SS, Flex, and mono Flex... and gravel. G4 street coilovers are probly inbetween SS and Flex for spring rate but I think have stiffer shocks than flex.

Gizzmo Launch Interface is an aftermarket launch controller if your aftermarket ECU wont do it. erm.. think it needs the Gizzmo Shift Light with Memory for it to work though.

other chassis/suspension parts..... Jspeed side strut tower bar... Sumo Power rear cross bar....poly upper/lower engine mounts.. whiteline anti lift kit - no ones mentioned that one

You don't need any more HP .... and aside from the sh*t in the other thread, here's some ideas ..... this is more a list of my plans that I would like to get done eventually, some things sooner than others ....



After the front bar;

Custom Rear Bar,
Custom fabricated front quarter panel vents
Side skirts,
Respray
re-upholster the rest of the Interior in leatherette - All panels & replace all interior cloth,
Custom fibreglass, Perspex & leatherette boot install
Make some custom rear lights
Engine bay dress up
Get a bunch of the interior plastic bits chromed... door cups, air con vents, seat belt guides, door handles, lock levers etc etc...
replace handbrake with aftermarket (isotta etc) HB with leather gaitor..
Definitely the LCD panels in sunvisors & get that X-BOX in
I want to see that fridge finished as well ...
Underbody Neons
Fold-down rear seats .... or if you want to be more creative, make your rear seats roll forward

........Aaaannd theres no way you will do it, but you could make your car a convertible

Oh & a....
!!!!!!!!!!! Flux capacitor !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

haha... this thread was ment for PERFORMANCE suggestions that are non-hp related (i.e. suspension, etc)


But lets just say i have a few surprises lined up for the styling side of things...

plans so far are:
- Complete Leatherette retrim
- rear bar
- skirts
- lots of engine chrome
- respray
- lambo doors
- custom leather boot install
- TV screens in sunvisors, Rear of seats, and in boot
- finish fridge
- install xbox
- coilovers
- poly everything
- LSD
- AWD
- Big brakes (UAS Kit or Brembo)
- possible roof scoop
- CF Bootlid
- underbody neons
- special interior project (hehehe)
- shaved doors with remote poppers
- remote start
- widebody kit

Thats about a year or twos worth but i want it all... lol...

Fridge... most important thing mentioned.

And bugger the retrim, go & get some Sparco's or Recaros.

i want a screenshot of your bank balance or this isnt happening!!

my bank balance is empty mate...

just paid the bill for the engine...

but i want the retrim, skirts, fridge, coilovers and xbox in before the end of the year...

Also planning to be complete for AWD and widebody finished by christmas so i can get started on it in jan...

Looking around for a 6a13tt g/b atm... have also been in contact with an EVO/Galant performance specialist and im waiting for him to do some research...

all up im thinking about $20-$30k till this is done... which means im over halfway to having my perfect car

wow sam this is your hibby/dream go for it im 18 and at uni adn working and tutoring i wish i had the cash to dall that lol haha plus still with my folks theyd kill mee if i told them how much i have spent on ym car alreadyyy roflll.nahhh good work mate keep it up how much is the AWD conversion going to cost ?

thanks mate... yeh this is my hobby/dream/life... i love my car and it means a lot to me... so it deserves my $$....

AWD im expecting around the $20k mark... but hoping to be $13kish... but doubt it...

and mate im only 21... doing this before i start on a house... so i wanna finish this asap so i can start getting into real estate...

you do realize putting a 360 in your car will give it the ring of death.... and probably scratch the crap out of your DVD's, your never ever meant to tilt the 360 when running a game or you will get MASSIVE scratches...
and over heating problems... them things need to be aired...
(me geek)

$20,000 for a second diff?! i know there's more to it than that, but how come you didnt start off with a gto, gtr, gtir, legnum vr4, rvr, rex,evo to name a few?

he says he likes the look of the fto!

lol... not just the looks... i love the car...

most those other cars are too heavy etc...

and i want a modified car... something unique...

where's the proper bucket seats? You need a reclineable one if you going to keep your back seat

Get a set and then retrim it with suede/leather Perfect for track day!!

I quite like my seats though...

and after spending weeks installing massagers and heaters into em, i really dont feel like doing it again...

that said, it may be something to do down the track..

I don't think it is a 360 ... Assuming its a modded normal X-BOX cause all the games are loaded on ... although it might still be a prob unless the HDD is installed in shock resistant mounts...

Nah original Xbox...
It would be removable for track days, etc...

And i'll be modifying it to handle the bumps
