    and that is the reason I'm not selling mine, sure there is new cars out there and mine is getting on a bit but I just love it way too much to sell.

    Also sold mine 2 weeks ago after 6 years of ownership, sad day. Was such a fun, deceptively quick car to drive! However the new car has exceeded my expectations so far

    Cheers for all the information you guys have passed on over the years, air intakes, suspension, tunes, cosmetics, cubby holders, etc etc etc.. Awesome information that really opened up the potential of this car!!

    I'm selling because I'm going overseas for a year and will want something a bit bigger when I get back.

    No point letting it waste away while I'm gone only to have the value drop.

    Gave the car it's first clay-barring whilst I've owned it and gave it a polish as well.
    The temperature dropped quite quickly so the waxing will have to wait till tomorrow.
    I'm exhausted.

    Installed a Forge rear strut brace on the weekend. Install was pretty straight forward and was completed in about an hour.

    Chassis feels noticeably more rigid which I could tell straight away even from reversing down my driveway. Overall grip levels seem like they have also improved...mid corner body roll is a lot less noticeable and the car feels a bit grippier...turn in has also improved and feels more responsive and direct!

    I know a lot of people dismiss strut braces as "bling" and useless pieces of metal that bolt on and do nothing but trust me, they do.

    And all this at normal suburban 40-50km/h speeds...can't wait to test it on the track!

    Nice. Any photos? Is this the one that you have to bolt to the rear suspension towers?

    -edit-

    found the guide, I don't remember there being a good option for a removable rear bar... makes me want one...

    Cant seem to find it on the Forge website.

    not so much my car but anthony's (vwindahouse) got rid of all scratches and swirl marks on roof and bonnet. I will leave the review to him but I think it came up damn well

    I installed my rear strut brace about a month ago. Honestly i didn't really notice that much of a difference compared to the Front strut brace or RSB. maybe its because my pog is pretty stiff already but hopefully nationals will prove me wrong

    Fitted my newly acquired N75J valve, and now it won't boost over 10lb (I have an APR tune). Any ideas??
