OZ 318ti Intro (Take 2)

[vontetris]

Hey guys!

My first introduction thread was taken up with issues regarding logging into the forum. I can't find that thread so I'd like to take this opportunity to reintroduce myself and actually post some progress pics of my car. Bought it bog stock 6 months ago with 230,000km (143,000 miles).

So far...
- H&R cup kit installed

- 16X7.5" Style 5's with Pilot Sport 3's 205/50R16 (a little fat but helps me keep my odo accurate and ground clearance as it is a daily) FYI great tire

- Thermostat failed and replaced

- Bought new hoses and water pump (Not OEM, completely metal, read somewhere it's better than the plastic OEM one? Can anyone verify?)

-Spark plugs replaced (unfortunately found oil all over the plug in cylinder one, so time for new gaskets)

-Pioneer avh-x7500bt (Has a flip out DVD and the closest oem bluetooth unit i could find)

- Momo shift knob (OEM one came flying off on the freeway, cheapest wood knob i could find on ebay)

- And hopefully an M52 swap in the future (S52 if I fall ass first into a pile of money)

And the pics......
