update! :grin:

the car is jack up for more than a month now because of this...

from here...
Image
lots of cables everywhere... i relocated/tuck the cruise control and throttle cable

Image

to this one...
Image
removed the stock sway bar brackets, relocated the PS cable from VS to firewall, removed some uncessesary brackkets, will relocate the battery inside the car and will relocate the fuse box under the driver headlight and bought K&N vent filter and need few more tucks. I also installed Spoon Kevlar Spark Plug Cover

the 2 hours and 2 days in a week is not enough, been busy with the baby and wife :grin:


more updates...

Image
change the stock steering wheel to Montecarlo (Spoon look-a-like :grin: )

Image
fixed the stock bose polarity to have more "kick"

Image
my stock rear endlinks broke 1 week before the last autox round so i run with non-functional rear sway :(

and for bling bling, i got this!
Image

Image

who needs a cruise control in doha?
Image
Cruise control deleted! :!:

pic of Eibach front sway (29mm) and Spoon Front Tie bar
Image
PITA to install the front sway, i removed the header + exhaust + crawling under your car!

i am not into big sub woofer and ICE anymore so i removed the previous owner scapades
Image
ICE wirings - tons of them :mrgreen:

then i got this
Image
customize tuck clutch line

and for JDM fanatics...
Image
all the way from Japan then US then Qatar (Y)

i still have tons of things to do this coming month. (Y)

Selling any of the stereo stuff? I liked your stock knob more TBH!

And your steering looks like a Momo! But your previous description says its a Spoon Steering Wheel, more details please! :D

I definitely agree with you about the stock knob looks better but because it is "Spoon" :grin:

yep the steering wheel is Momo - Montecarlo as i said at the post above. i had the Spoon Steering Wheel but it's gone now along with the stereo stuffs. Sold it to my cuz back to Phil.
