Recently bought from Adelaide from one of the members here. My second car ever (3rd if you count an automatic car that I only kept for 2 months). Mostly a week-end car but I am still thinking of doing some occasional hill climbs, track days.
 
Mods:
-CT20b turbo
-Full 3’ Mandrel bent exhaust, with Flowmasters muffler
-High flow 100cfm catalytic converter
-Apexi air filter
-Apexi boost gauge
-HKS turbo timer
-HKS Fuel Cut Defender
-Manual Boost controller (~14-15psi)
-16" advan racing staggered wheels (7" and 8" +32)
-Koni Sport adjustable shocks / lowered springs (not sure if it's really lowering springs as front is 325mm but rear is 355mm)
-Bomex front & rear bumpers
-Veilside side skirts
-Kouki tail light conversion kit
-Revision 3 rear spoiler
-Stage 2 heavy duty clutch
-Wideband o2 sensor
-kirkausorus engine mount inserts
-Whiteline front and rear sway bars
-Poly bushings all around
 
Fully rebuilt E153 gearbox with gen 3 double syncro’s , Cusco 2-way LSD.
 
Things to fix:
-Powersteering working for 60seconds before turning off (tried a different P/S relay and ECU, but that didn't fix it)
-Stalls on cold start (cold start timer switch/ ecu temp sensor??)

Welcome mate, didn't even see this thread until today..
that colour code is actually turquoise pearl, not aquamarine pearl.. very nice colour and not many of them around either.
cheers

You are actually correct, the original paint color was aquamarine but it seem to have been resprayed at some point with turquoise pearl.
I will probably post an update here soon, I have done a few changes to the car since my original post :)

Awesome. Yes please post some more pics would love to see them. Cheers

Bought some custom leather covers. Before:

 
After:

 
Far from being a perfect fit, but still a million time better than the stock seats...
 
A few more random pics:

 

 

 
 
Also bought some 17" rims but haven't had a chance to install them yet.

New ball joints all around.
 
Also, a bunch of things bought and about to be installed soon:
-whiteline front and rear sway bars w/ reinforcement plates
-poly bushings
-rear strut brace
-koni adjustable shocks x4 (old ones are shot)
 
Things left to do:
-fix the leather seat covers so that they don't sag as much
-increase boost (may have to wait as I noticed that the afr is sometimes going in the 16.0 while cruising, maybe a malfunctioning o2 sensor or dirty injector?)
-get a good front strut brace
-replace coolant hoses all around
-buy 16" or 17" rims (I was planning on getting a wheel spacer/ adapter to offset the rear 17" rims I bought, but then realized that it's illegal here in Australia and could void the insurance in case of a crash...) + tyres.
Might be hard to find good/ not too expensive 16" tyres so I might go for the 17". Not sure...
-possibly get a new exhaust. Current one is a bit quiet for my taste while cruising (even though it was loud enough to make me fail an inspection ;/ ).
 
 
Few more pics (quite dusty from a trip to the Jenolan caves):

 

 
Yes, installing the racing stripes above the engine lid was a lot of fun (/sarcasm). Mostly done that to remove a transformer logo on the hood that I didn't like (no, it was not a decal and would have required sanding/ repainting the hood).

Replaced rear-end suspension (bushings, ball joints, shocks, sway bars), need to do the front end now and the car is good to go (I was sold the car advertized with 'koni inserts' but it had GAB shocks at the rear and stock suspension at the front ;/). Handles a lot better already.Almost there :)Also plastidip'ed the wheels:

 

Im lovin the black wheels they turned out nicely

Yeah, I'm happy with how they turned out (mostly). It was a bit more work than first anticipated so hopefully they will last for a long time :)

New 16" staggered wheels installed. Not only do I like the way they look better, the handling has improved a lot (also, parking is much easier since the powersteering is not working, the lighter wheels made a big difference).
