Hi all, this is my First Ride... That i'm taking home tonight 
Few things to be done though, these are the problems:
Passenger's window is not working properly
Central Locking is not working, but works with remote
Rust on the sunroof

Very nice indeed! good to see there isnt a huge cannon comming out the back. Dunno about the black wheels though, if they were white also i reckon it would look shit hot!
my sunroof also has rust

Thanks for all the nice comments!, lets get together for a cruize so u can see it in real life! its pretty kool
mate, this car cost be 6 1/2K, at first i thought i'd be looking at a lemon cause of that price. But it turned out to be a real bargin! There are stuff i'm planned on doing!
those wheels must go! i'm in for a set of 15" or 16" White rims :D:D:D:D:D
I fixed the central locking, was a shitty connection! now i gotta fix the power windwos on passenger side, and lastly i need to get myself a new Sunroof soon, as this one is getting rooted by rust.
I thought about mods, but dont know what to do, its got these:
3SGE from a SW20
Extractors
Exhaust
Pod Air Filtre
So maybe i'll make a Cold Air inlet or something, def making a heat shield this weekend
Anyone know where i can get some air conditioning hoses? not for the car, but for aircon units at home. Good way to make some Cold Air inlet i think.
Karl, those side skits are custom made i believe, not standard SSV ones... i guess they look alright, till you look at them up close and you will say, omg, the job isnt done nicely lol

CK. I have no idea where that wing is from as it was already on the car when I bought it.
count me out on the cruise as my car still isnt quite finished yet and probably wont be for quite some time. too busy..doh. the side skirts and rear skirts are exactly the same dude. we will compare one day. . Ihave to agree with u changing the rims though , just beware if you get smaller rims ur car will probably get lower and be vulnerable to scraping you may have to lift it to get some clearance.

just a note about your power windows, i had them in my old 162 and i noticed that every now and then the passenger one wouldn't go down when trying to do it from the drivers side and you could hear it trying to. ended up just being that the swith on the passenger side was stuck. felt pretty stupid when i found out what it was.

lol not a smart move to park in someone's spot
usually if they got there own parking spot, they are fairly high ranked and get really annoyed very quickly
