It is pretty exciting actually. Wasn't planning on installing subs just yet but these speaker boxes came into my possession and I already have the amp so its just taken off haha 
Not sure about the weight. My guess is around 10kgs extra.
 
Speakers weight 2.3KGs each
The amp is small-medium in size 2KG?
The wooden boxes are light 1.5KG each?
Wiring is short length wise so not much weight 200gm
 
I'll just dial in another pound of boost and it should cover the 10KG :)

New item was purchased today from Dylan @ Gorilla Industries :) A pair of factory optional mirrored T-Tops.
Pic stolen from Gorilla's website. (I did not purchase the T-Top shades though)
 

 
 

Presents arrived from New Zealand (North Shore Toyota) Front end parts.

 
Will ask a local mechanic how much to change these ball joints, tie rod ends & control arms. I'm not going to attempt to do this install myself.
The front end already has new castor rod bushes and new strut tops. Hopefully should remove the final few clunking noises :)
 

Saw this car on the weekend and fell in love with it instantly!
 
Really really need to get my AW11 upto scratch!

Went and spoke to the local mechanic the other day about how much it would cost to get the new control arms, ball joints and tie rod ends fitted to the front of the AW11. He was a d!ck about it and I left with the sh!ts.
 
Ended up downloading the AW11 BGB, bought a 1/2in torque wrench and a pitman arm puller (to pop out the tie rod ends)
 
All up did the entire front end all torqued up to spec in about 2.5 hrs. Very happy with the result, no clunks and feels nice and tight!
 
Today I swapped out the ignition coil with a newer less KMs one I bought from Ethan. Mine had a crack in the side of it. New one made no difference to the running of the engine, just nice to know its newer and I also have a spare now.
I also changed out the front brake pads with a set of EBC Ultimax.
 
The car really is starting to drive nice now.

I've been wanting to do similar on my 2 (bought ball joints, tie rod ends and bushes ages ago), what did you think of the kincrome torque wrench? They seem good for the price, but have seen plenty of recommendations for more expensive deflective beam types.

The torque wrench seemed to work well. I am assuming its reasonably accurate being brand new. I kinda drew the line at $100 and bought what I thought was best under that price as I won't be using it very often.
Your welcome to borrow it and the pitman puller thing if you like to do your front end?
Save you outlaying the coin for them.

Thanks mate appreciate the offer, but will likely buy one to add to the toolbox, will come in handy for more regular stuff like tightening wheel nuts as well.
Where did you get yours from?

The kingchrome wrench was $85 from Bunnings and the tool to pop tie rod ends / ball joints was $31 from Autobarn.
The Kingchrome is nice as it comes with a plastic case to store it in when not in use.

Installed a Turbosmart e-Boost Street 40PSI electronic boost controller tonight. Its lovely going back to an electronic controller :) The controller itself has a nice well built solid feel to it.
 
Set the boost at 1.15Bar (almost 17psi) and it is rock solid. Turbo spools up quicker now due to wastegate being held closed longer.
