Hi Everybody!

Hey all,

Just thought I would pop in here to say G'day!

About 12 months ago I acquired myself a 2001 Ford Laser SR2 (Black). I've always been a Toyota guy after owning a AE82 Twincam trackcar/daily with a 20v. Unfortunately she got written off a couple of years ago by a careless driver in a round about.

Anyway, my SR2 currently is stock as a rock and just being used as a daily but I've decided to that I need a bit more street cred so I have a couple of basic planes up my sleeve like coilovers wheels and CAI and exhaust.

I'll try a post a pic up of the SR2 soon, but I'm sure you all know what they look like

Cheers maz!

Here's a pic of how she sits at the moment, the front lip needs some attention but everything else is pretty good (for its age)

And this was my Twincam when I had it... I'm seriously think of putting some quad itb's on the SR2!

Welcome! I'd love to see how you go about setting up quad itb's if you do end up going that way! Wouldn't mind doing it myself.

Thanks again guys! I'm currently deciding on wheels and coils which I can hopefully have sorted around the Christmas break! As we all know it all comes down to $$$ :P
