Re the spacers:

Think of the extra moment being placed on the studs by having the 25mm spacer in there.

That is what kills them.

From what I have been told, your insurance may be void and the cops will yellow you for having them.

Also, insurance companies have no issues with CAI or CBE. Best to inform them rather than not and having a problem later down the track.

You can clearly hear it when you listen, but with the radio on it's not that easy to hear, so when I get annoyed with the Whoooosh-TISSSHHHHH, I can just turn up the radio :D

Lol Jamie haha, nice work.

looking nice today mate, sounds great too :D

Thanks mate, but what did you think of the car? :p

Something similar ;) haha!!!

I'll post up a DIY hard-wire install if you are interested, but I'm sure you are capable :)

Hey Jamie, NICE Ride

Looks awesome Jamie! Did you do the ti logo on the IC or did you get someone to do it? Looking at doing the handbrake nav fix. Again all you or I'd you go somewhere?

Thanks! Yeah I did the logo & the handbrake hack myself.

Logo was easy, just go to Office Works, or similar, & buy an A4 adhesive label. Then print out the STI logo on it, cut that out with a sharp knife & stick it in place. I then covered the ENTIRE front end in news paper to prevent any overspray & put about 3-4 coats of red high temp engine paint on. Wait for it to dry a bit, but not too much, then peel everything off :)

The handbrake hack was a bit trickier, but there are some links with all the instructions somewhere. I'll add them here when I get to my computer, as doing it from iPhone + Tapacrappa sucks arse!

Ok, that was harder than I thought!:mad:

Attempted to fit the Ultrex TBE today, but gave up while trying to get the heat shield off. I rang Allstars where it's booked in for a tune tomorrow and after they said I'd need to get the TMIC off to get access, I decided I'd had enough:confused:

Thankfully, the kind fellows at Allstars said they would gladly finish off my TBE for me before they do the tune. So, for now, it's just a CBE and it sounds great!:)

Can't wait to see the curves tomorrow:D
