I have fitted a 2din stereo with a new speaker front sett. the originals where blown and the radio where crap.
I also stitched a new lether stearingwheel cover. (eBay stuff)
BTW the GR is the left hand verson of the GU.

Looking good easy to deck the rear out too.
I only have one rear seat, as I pulled one out to fit my Fridge
You'll need to look up on how to fit a manual boost controller etc or NADS
You have the same as me mine is 5/04 build and have 205k on the clock.
Good buy by the look of it, Watch the intercooler if its oily chances are its leaking.
Here in Aus we replace with OE tigged welded one

Thanks guys.
I have alot of plans for this on, but everything comes down to money.
First thing to do is installing a lift kit. The higest lift witch can be aproved over her is 2" and I think that will look great.

The rims im using now have the original offset so the front tires ar touching the radius arms.
So I was about to mount this spacers last wekend. 2". but don know howe I ended up with a 108mm diameter sett... eBay you fool me again.

Unforunately I came across som other errors assvel. so I put the spacers on hold.
On the pluss side it gives me a good reason to get that lift kit.

Been a wile since last uppdate.
This car is giving me some more work that I didnt want.
Have just blockd the EGR innlett, and installed a oil catch can for the ventilation fumes.

During the work with the EGR and catch can i notised that the IC have oil stains on the edges, so it it is time to change it to an Tig velded one like @threedogs advised.
Noticed a noher thing also, the crossmember under the radiator is rusty, realy rusty. The radiaor has sunken 1cm into the crossmember.

Looks like I was a bit optimistic when I started with this uppgrade.
Note to self. Do not start with uppgrades the same time your building a hous and your first child is born.
