Wow, beautiful photographs!

Your car looks great, but I thought you had black window trim?

I think you need to switch back to the black window trim, as it flowed a lot better overall.

thanks for all the positive comments.

in reply to the questions and suggestions:

No new mods on the horizon for the time being - moving out of home and need the money. Theres a few ecu options in Australia now so I'll be looking to those in the future, maybe some more aggressive coilovers, we'll see.

Hanging out the rear of the car is an anti-static / earthing strap pretty common round here really.

Will see what I can do wallpaper wise for the requested pics. I used a Canon 400d with all canon lenses - the 18-55mm kit lens, 90-300 zoom and the 50mm 1.8. Cheap lenses but they can work well when you use them at the right apertures and focal lengths.

Yep we have drive by wire like you guys.

ecu options we have atm are:

Teknik tuning (under development), Autronic, Motec, EFI, Hondata reflash and possibly a kpro down the line which you guys already know about.

EFI has a branch in the states and they can run drive by wire with their ecu. If you can't find them in a google search let me know. One guy in Austalia paid under AU$3000 for the EFI ecu installed and tuned.

suspension = tein SS
exhaust = j's racing 60rs
wheels = weds sport tc-005 17"x8" +42

Thanks kit and others for the positive feedback
