EDITED DUE TO PHOTO BUCKET POLICY CHANGE............
Never really done one of these before so i`ll try and keep it updated.
Anyways started as a pretty much stock rev2 gts just some kei office wheels and an alpine stereo(jap so not much use) i`m the 1st uk owner, mileage is at about 80000km i havent driven it much in the past 2 years as this was always going to be a project.
I added some crystal corners on, to replace full orange units.
Next came the gen 2 berk down pipe
followed shortly after by the Pheniox Power departure 2 PRO exhaust
A boost gauge, dual pillar pod and MBC, the MBC was quickly changed for a Blitz Spec R boost controller as i didn`t trust the MBC.
Toyo Sport intercooler
Toyo sport oil catch can
Wheels where stripped and re-powered coated Light graphite
Cleaned and painted calipers at the same time
A set of rev3 lights
New gear stick gator from rhon
Rev 3 boot, and rev 5 spoiler
Some lockwood dials (I need a 30mph marker cant do 20 to 40

I`ll do you a straight swap if ya want?
for the trd
Re: Platmatt`s SMG project
Departure exhaust doesn't fit with a TRD kit - its too wide - that's why I took mine off.
I'd mount your boost controller in the ashtray - heres how.

Re: Platmatt`s SMG project
NOOO....
I`ve been given a dilemma, the chap at the spray shop says seen as im keeping the car why not have it re sprayed in a different grey to modernise it!!!
But which GREY?!?!?!?
He`s not going to spray the sills or the engine compartment or frunt so a similar lighter grey would be preferable.
Any ideas??
