lol Looks like I got a good deal then!

Mods.. I'm not too sure.

I'd like to stick some HPRacing 5 spoke (that are split up the centre) on it... but i'm really not too sure yet.
The factory headunit will be replaced with my Alpine CDA9855R and ipod control, and i'll probably be adding a sub at the same time I do that (or have that done, depending on how lazy I feel on the day haha)
Are stocko speakers ok to hook up to the headunit?
My mates sisters lancer has full stock speakers, and just an amped sub, runnign off a Pioneer headunit and it goes hard :badgrin:


Go the Magnas/Veradas :D

I did actually look at a VS Statesman... thank god I didn't go ahead with that!
Yucky yuck yuck yuck.
not to mention the stereotype associated with a Holden lol


So other mods... waht do people recommend?

Cat back exhausts? (i'm not really a fan of loud exhausts on automatics)

I'm very open to suggestions

Cheers.

Hi Mate,

Good purchase, you wont regret it.

The stock speakers are more than enough for me, give em a go and see.

Ive done a few mods to my KE that are listed in my signature, bit I recommend the following in order:

1. Pacemakers & RedBack Cat Back (& Fuel Rail Kit if you dont like loud exhausts)
2. Earthing Kit
3. K&N Panel & CAI
