we have a charity cruise and BBQ comoing up in Mid July - see Vic section for details. I'm sure one of us would be willing to give you a ride - you just have to figure out how to get to Melbourne first LoL...

spose I should introduce myself. Name is Craig and I bought my fto on Monday (so have had it a whole whopping 3 days now

I live in Rockhampton, but bought the car in Brisbane, flew down monday morn, bought the car, drove it home monday arvo.

It is a 95 GPX, manual, white. Has aftermarket exhaust, steering wheel, strut brace and pod filter. Makes a sweet woooshing noise on gear changes

Pics can be found here: http://clawdom.ath.cx/images/fto sitting behind my old car..

At the moment, I love it. It is just good fun getting out and seeing what it is capable of doing. What I really need to do is replace the standard tape player in it. man, a 7 hour drive listening to the radio (and not a good station, it only picks up AM and the 70-90 range FM) is not pleasant.

Welcome to the forum/club Craig, you should able to find all the info you need for a new audio system in the I.C.E section.

Ohhh nice, clean FTO you got there, but i think you need to take more pics with the FTO by itself.

I already have all the sound gear I need, I just need to get a time to get it put in (its all alpine stuff - mp3 head unit + type-r speakers, no sub yet).

More pics will go up when I get the camera back

HKS Dragger sounds quiet to me, at least compare to all the other one on the market.
