Fit a new exhaust system. Get it resprayed and then keep the thing clean and polished.

Well since I didn't get through everything last year this has to be the year.
Plans are to: - Finish the interior conversion from forte to fairlane ghia. - Fit a new diff (will most likely be a 9" diff with 3.7's, just not too sure on what center to put in it) - Fit the V8 finally!!! then get a re tune - Re do my roof lining - Fit up a complete stereo system That should well and truly keep me going for the next 12 months.

I WILL get this S/C on this year, shamefully been sitting on the shelf for 3-4 years.
Late 2010 Pacies 4 into 1, high flow cats and full 2.5"exhaust fitted. Next will be Flash tuner and tune, then we should see some thing happening. Ok now I've committed.

Not buy any more T series & replace the aftermarket stereos in the T2 & T3 with the factory premium sound with updated speakers.
Pretty much the same as you Whoosh, wash & polish them and looking forward to the new sheds. |

I don't have many plans for the AU. This one stays fairly standard:
XR height suspension better rims better headunit (maybe factory premo) done

Shove a cam down it's throat and put some Azzuros on it. Id like to get them both done by the first half of the year.
After that it may be sold to buy a new Accord Euro or 4WD - not sure which way we're going to go yet.
