Project Sexus
This is kind of a continuation from my other thread.
But I wanted a project thread around for when I do some kind of cool stuff.
For now the car is almost stock save for:
SRT 3" CAI w/ECU Mod
2.5" Catback Magnaflow Exhaust
Torsen LSD
Then the sexy part:
30% Tint
10" Infinity Basslink Subwoofer (for that decent, but not too loud bump)
O'Rilleys shift knob, cuz the stock one was horrid.
Clarion CX609 Deck, double din (for that almost factory look)
6000k HID bulbs
Planned mods:
Koni Adjustables with Tein S.Tech springs
Headers winter/spring
And come spring a set of rims, and possible CF hood
I'll throw up a pic of the tint and head unit when I decide to take them.
Woo.

Re: Project Sexus
Sweetness!!
That sub looks exactly like the one I had in my Talon, and was stolen out of my garage a year ago. Are any of the black screws missing in it anywhere? I loved it, sounded great, would love to get another one. If you're thinking of selling it let me know 
But sweet car man. Love to see it sometime!! |

Re: Project Sexus
Have to join the 'ditto' club on the Basslink. A nice sub for the money. I might have to get one for the beater.

The surface Im mounting it too is that cardboard shit that covers your spare tire. It's flimsy and the way I drive I would be one sub short in about 2 days.

Re: Project Sexus
Basslink club here, my amp went out but I still have the rest of the unit.
Plans sound good minus the CF hood, but i'm sure it will look good with teh dark color

Re: Project Sexus
New update,
Clarion CX609 installed:
Before:
The Metra Axxess that allows me to use the factory AMP (NON HACKED TOGETHER assholes):
After:
And today, I went ahead and detailed it for the cruise using that Turtle Wax Ice... Its not bad, but could be better I guess:
Also, unknown aftermarket sway bar:
God I cant wait for spring time, I want my drop and LSD...

Re: Project Sexus
It's a factory unit off a 2005, I'm pretty sure they are Torsen style.

Re: Project Sexus
Sweet! I used a torsen style diff in my 240 and I'm pretty happy with it. Though if I were to do it again, I think I'd go with a 1.5 way clutch type. It kinda sucks when you get one wheel on a little sand or one rear wheel comes off the ground a little and it turns into basically an open diff.
