Pattax's BA Hatch.
G'day,
We bought this car about almost 10 months ago for $4000. It was bog stock everything. I aim to start playing with it a little bit sooner, I have a few ideas lined up which i've stolen from here and club323f.com. I haven't done a whole lot to the car yet, but I aim to update with a few things I have in mind. This is what the car looks like now, minus the sound system, minus the stock wheels and adding the MS01R's ( will have updated pictures soon ) - With the rims, the only photo I have atm Current stuff: 3A Racing podfilter Altezzas / beaver panel MS01R's CAI Remote central locking with alarm Immobilzer Future stuff : LED Brake circlets Eye lids ( Very soon ) Lowering 30mm-40mm Colour the headlights Wire indicators to orange LEDS's inside the head lights Bright LEDS inside the headlight ( parkers ) 4-2-1 extractors Cat back exhaust Cams , Leads, Plugs. HIDs New tyres ( bit of road rash on the ones i got with the rims ) Stainless intercooler piping DIY CAI. Powdercoating misc covers, parts. Or spray.

Eyelids done. Waiting on china to send through LEDS. I really want to get some money in hand for some engine upgrades. I'm getting some good ideas.

So did a couple things today.
Got around to installing my LEDS finally, wasnt as hard as anticipated, but took ages. Baking headlights: About 100deg at ten mintutes did the trick, then just pried open with knifes. Lined with amber LEDS and white LEDS ( Indicators / parkers ) with some double sided tape. Drilled holes in the lamps, and fed the wires through to the back. Cook for 10 minutes on 100 deg again, and voila; Also secured the podfilter, and took off the wing. .... and put it on a silvia |
