The What Winter Mods Thread

[daktari]

Having just read Adams thread about his FMIC. I was a wondering who else is modding for England over the winter?? ;)

Speaking for myself, I`m hoping to get some Tein coilover jobbies (Money depending) and had a chat with a mate about fabricating a fuel tank to go where my spare wheel well is. Should relieve the boredom a bit. :)

So we have :-

Adam = FMIC

dak = Suspenders and fuel tank

Anyone else???

[chris202]

modding for England? nah .

[daktari]

modding for England? nah .

:P Or Scotchland as our American cousins call it on occasion. Or any-!Removed!-where really.

[chris202]

:P only mod i plan is swapping for something a bit more 4wd ;)

[Sketchy]

Well it all depends on how much money I can lay my hands on, so if you know of any banks that are lacking in security let me know ;)

Back to the point in hand though I'm seriously considering a Hydra Nemisis, and poss turbo technics hybrid.

Got some learning to do first though as I'd like to have a go at mapping the nemisis myself

Planning on tracking this one a bit more so once the current brakes have run their course (which won't be much longer) I'll be upgrading the disks and pads, also looking at whiteline ARB and I'll have to see how the trd springs do track wise before considering anything further in the suspension deptment...

Other than that probably a oil cooler and poss FMIC.

Good dam that little lots gonna cost some money

Oh yea and poss a bit of self modification by way of some track driving lessons

[Jones~32]

I'm after new discs and pads all round, Not decided whether to go for 3G Discs/EBC Redstuff or TRD yet ;)

Then its Aussie downpipe, Aussie Front pipe w/sports cat, and Blitz Nur Spec from front pipe back :D

Then its boost controller and get it upto 1.1 bar, get it dyno'd and see where im upto! :D

Hoping to have this done by January :!Removed!: Oh and wouldn't mind an FMIC myself! ;)

Indeed he does, and at the price of that kit I think a lot of gt4 owners will find it very hard to resist...

You`re lucky up there in the uncharted territories. Last time we had any decent snow was 1992 i think.

[adamgt]

once the FMIC is done im looking at oil cooler kits

[Dan_Q]

funnily enough, some new rear brakes (or new to the car anyway) which i'm working on at the moment (up on axle stands as we speak)

sure i'll be in the garage over the winter months, staying away from her indoors and getting my hands dirty

think i'll have a play with my head ;)

[celsteve]

No mods for me this season :( Need service and cambelt and I've recently spent loadsa money on my aquarium. Put it this way, I could have got the car serviced, cambelt done and new wheels for what I've spent on a few goldfish ;) :D

[jaxx]

not a celica but a few engine bits and hopefully a respray with my kit parts :)

if santa is generous im hoping new suspension aswell..... and a brake conversion

[yellowchinaman]

I think I'll wash my car this year

[mik_m666]

well, just fitted my boost gauge after spending hrs profiling a universal a-pillar pod so it sits just right, so next for me i think will be an electronic boost controller... and maybe some spoiler blocks

[Jones~32]

Mik, for spoiler blocks try eBay - £80 + P&P

[mik_m666]

yeah i think they're the ones i'm gonna get, probably get me a boost controller from there as well.... eBay rocks!!!!

[Jones~32]

haha, it does indeed :D

I've got some of the eBay blocks, quality is good, could do with spraying though (although ive not had mine done yet )

Out of interest, which EBC you looking at?

[mik_m666]

probably a profec b or something similar, has all the bells and whistles i'll need.... for now :D
