Finally got around to getting some pictures up!

Think I might start the modding with upgraded rotors and pads, and also looking in to the rear sway bar.

Also, took my mate out for a spin who owns the SS ute, he's not to sure he made the right decision as well haha.

Nice car bud also smart move on the first mod brakes.

He's wasted all his money on his Series 5 RX7 which has been sitting in his garage for 4+ years now haha

Yeah I figured this way would be the smart way as I'm sure there will be some spirited driving with the new power!

Could anyone recommend a place in sydney to buy DBA4000's? Also, is it only necessary to change the fronts? and lastly, what price should I expect to pay?

Sold my old car over the weekend, have DBA 4000 T3 (front and rears) with QFM HPX pads and H4 & H11 HID's on the way.

Have enough cash to start the performance mods, but I will wait a few more weeks for some backup funds and then hopefully I'll be playing in the 300 club!

Just another update with some pics.

Got the LED parkers and Phillips H7s in the mail today. Have installed the parkers and will do the high beams on the weekend (need to remove airbox and battery)

Also removed the BOV on the weekend which took about 5minutes. Used the Rubber chair ends and repair plugs. If anyone wants to do this in Syd and needs the parts, I have enough for 3 more cars. I ended up using the factory clamps. Just FYI if using the factory clamps, put them on before you put the rubber chair ends on.

Also will be installed the Rotors and Pads this weekend, as well as painting the callipers (fingers crossed)

The HID's came up pretty blue in the pics, but I can tell you they are are not that blue.
