    Good work finding a manual VS!
    I wouldn't bother with sony stereo gear, it is quite rubbish. Go for pioneer or alpine for a nice basic system, or jaycar gear for something a bit cheaper.
    Some clear indicators would clean up the exterior as well.

    What do you plan to do with it? Looks, power, stereo, interior etc. Post up what you are into in terms of mods, and people here will be able to give you hints at how to get there

    Thanks guys, its done 181,000 on the clock so thats pretty good.

    In terms of mods im just about to get my P's so im pretty restricted with what i can do with it. I might chuck a cold air intake/pod filter in their. Im not that car savvy but i want it looking nice and mean, im considering buying 18" VY SS wheels for it, and those clear indicators sound pretty good too.
    Im going to redo the headlining and give it a thorough clean ASAP.

    Oh and yeah like i said its got the 2.5 from the catback, any suggestions on what i can do to make it sound even better?

    Cheers
