Finally got my TRX
« on: Jul 13, 2005, 12:44PM »
After much hassle, i finally picked up my TRX, and she's a beauty... fairly stock, apart from a 2.25" catback exhaust and some tinting, which means i have plenty to keep my holidays occupied...

Planned short term mods:
- Pod filter installation with possible CAI
- Stereo install
- Steering wheel install

this is her after her first carwash, and only 27 minutes ago

good stuff man! see, all that "waiting" has paid off (really jealous of the price for the amount of km's)

looks pretty clean, happy mody-ing!
If somebody asks you, "can I ask you a question?" and you say, "no",  you're actually answering a question. Think about it....

cheers guys, i agree it was definately worth the wait, i'm so happy with her... stereo install is 40% complete, with the head unit at 6x9's in the parcel shelf... which isn't bad for a few hours work

i'm ordering my boss kit tomorrow, so my steering wheel should be on soon...

so happy, so excited... i'm having a couple of minor issues, but they'll be sorted out over the next couple of days when i can do some tinkering... i love this car

got my autotechnica carbon fibre steering wheel mounted, pics to come soon...

i've done a little investigating and it turns out i've got a full 2.5" exhaust already, however i didn't notice because its got some resonators in it, cos the guy had a baby...

so the next thing should be to get them removed and see how loud it is... i think maybe removing one maybe sufficient, but if two doesn't break the legal noise limit, then i mite as well...

hopefully stage 2 chip installed by next weekend...

yeah, thats wat i figured... plus i've got the g/f bitching about how loud my last exhaust was, and that was only a 2"... so removing one silencer will keep me happy, cos i can tell her it could have been twice as loud..
