That looks much smarter Luke. The standard Series 1 Berlina is way too plain at the back - looks just like a VZ Exec without the chrome and garnish.

Got a question out there for all the Exhaust boffins..

Want to get a exhaust on this, and im wondering what the best size is? 2.5' or 2.25'? Im not after a massive, if any performance gain, just a nice note. Dont want it to be loud when just driving normally, just a nice note under acceleration.

A mate with a Alloy tec Sv6 has a 2.25' xforce and it sounds good. But another has a 2.5' redback and sounds good to? So im unsure which is best.

So which size would be better? Also any brands? I have about $350 to spend.

Cheers

Also.. Have decided to spend all the spare money i have from now on, on Audio and a exhaust.

So the plan is.. Catback exhaust.

7' DVD/TV/IPOD/CD Player HU. With LCD screen headrests connected to the HU, Quality Front/Rear 6' Splits, And some new 3way 6x9's.

3rd Person to say that.

I like all the different sig chops. Black looks better though imo..

eh i hate sigs.

the picture with your rims painted black with single white walls look nice, i'd do that - that'd probably be the cheapest for you too (expect for just white or red walls)
