New Member to MSO! Hailing from Canada.

Joined this January because this forum seems more stable than MSF. I've had the car almost two years now and am loving every drive I take. Of course there's lots I'd like to do with it, and not much time or money to do it. Hoping this isolation thing affords me some of the luxury which is time.

So far the only thing I've done to it was an eFocus mount, which will be replaced by a Damond probably tomorrow, new wheels, OEM rain window guards, brakes and brake lines, and leather bench/passenger's seat swap. Coming up in the VERY near future is this lovely list:

• EvoX Recaros are getting swapped in the front seats.
• Koni yellows are being installed
• JBR Rear sway bar will be ordered once they're back in stock (few weeks they said, amongst all this craziness)
• AutoTech HPFP
• SRI+TIP (right now I have an EBay TIP, but I'm not super confident in it's quality)
• Maybe a head unit update? Who knows, I'm saving so much money on gas right now I could probably afford it.
• Blacking out all the RED in the interior... this will be a fun one.

Anyway. I'm looking forward to keeping the platform alive and well with all you people, so I figured I'd finally start interacting with the crowd.

Cheers, and stay safe.

 

Welcome! Another local member. That’s great

 

Hey 'Sauga! Good to know. I see a few speeds on the roads pretty regularly, wonder if you're one of them.

 

I might be lol. Car was parked all winter but in the summer im always all over the place. Only one other local on the forums as well

 

Welcome! Sadly I am not even semi local to the GTA anymore...out in Manitoba now having had a JBR sway bar for a couple years now I'd personally pick up a white line one instead. Quite frankly when I swap in my new endlinks (pretty sure I just broke another set) I'll probably be swapping the JBR one out for it

 

Honestly at this point, I'll take whatever I can get shipped to my door. I've spent weeks trying to find one in-stock online that doesn't charge it's own value in shipping + import fees. I know I need new end links and bushings all around (140,XXX km on original OEM right now) and I'd love to do all the suspension work at once, but it doesn't seem like I'll find a RSB in time. Dissapointing.

 

Check out edge Autosport, only 37$ for shipping and it's on sale
