I like it a lot man! Keep up the good work. It'll be interesting to see where your car is in 6-12 months see'in that you did all this work within 1 week of getting the car, haha.
Please enlighten me with some more info. on the guages. What are they reading (RPM's, Water, etc.?) and do you have a website link and price for them?
Waiting like the others for the day time pics as well! Get close ones of the guages please.

I think thats the coolest dash setup ive seen yet in a 3rd gen.
Very nice!
I look forward to your next mods.
Those Defi gauges arent the new 06 line are they?...they have a blue series coming out, or should be out already.

As promised, here are some day time pics. The car is still pretty much stock as of now except for the tint and rear lip spoiler. Will have new pics by the end of next week.

what gauges.. boost? water? ? would be cool to make a custom pod for where you have the gauges to hide those wires.. if someone made a pod, i'd move mine off the pillar to that spot. looks hot !!

you say your car is pretty much stock, now....but I see an EDFC controller below the steering wheel. What's that all about?
several of us non-navi owners have done it...search for carpc or carputer...see my sig, too.

The gauges are Boost, fuel pressure, and EGT. I also have a AEM uego wideband gauge but will install that later with the S/C
As for the EDFC, I just prewired it so when I install the Tein ss next week, it would be much faster and easier.
The center speaker is still fully functional!

I am regretting for not getting the 6MT. However when I was deciding between the 6MT and 5AT, I figured that most of the 6MT upgrades would be switched out (A-spec suspension, bodykit, brakes, etc)
Now that I don't have a choice but to keep the 5AT, I am loving it......!! haha

You're gonna have to go aftermarket on a BBK.
And that auto is gonna eat up your launches when you start HP modding. I like what you're doing, but HP modding an automatic is like a fat bodybuilder. It'll be strong, but it'll always be "encumbered".

yeah........but if i really want to go all out on HP then TL would never be my choice. I would have gone with say an STi.
As for brakes, going to go with Rotora or stoptech.
