Sure that sounds good. The only other FTO I've seen around Blackburn is a red one, and that was in the Safeway carpark for the few times that I did, otherwise I haven't seen any others around. How many more of us are there?

For the meantime you can check out my ride at:

I have since swapped my front bar with Danny and fitted a D-Cuatro front lip spoiler... currently looking at making a custom template to make side aluminium/cf winglets on it too.

yeh i'm on MSN but i don't finish work until 12am tonight (no MSN allowed @ work!)... anyways, my MSN address is:

michael_tan168.spam-this-biatch@hotmail.com

nb: just remove .spam-this-biatch (incl the dot at the start) from the address.

btw what stereo setup do you have on your ride? i still can't decide on mine atm... :oops:

Nah, I was talking about the safeway on the corner of Canterbury Rd and Main St, next to the Maccas.
I live on the other side of Main street to you, coz it sounds like your on the otherside of Blackburn Road.
I would love to check out your ride when you got the time

ive got 2 alpine amps a 4 x 4 and 2way and a 10inch alpine sub. The speakers are not changed yet (there aftermarket though) and will suffice for the time being. Ive just got a pionner cd single cd. I didnt want a really expensive unit, cos the music comes throught the amps, just need the unit to change the settings on amps. ive also got a gps sitting at home, but going to sell, its not mine, and selling for a friend. also got immobiliser and alarm etc, as the car has already been broken into once! love your dash set up to, i cant justify 500 for them though! i just change the globes to blue, put ina momo gear knob, neons in foot wells and want to get pedals, boot sleeve for handbrake and aluminium tip, and a gfew other gadgets, i added u, eurobailey@hotmail.com

gazz, i'm waaaay off from blackburn rd dude... more like along Doncaster Rd lol... but it's still literally right next to each other anyway..

euro, how do u mount your subs? sealed? ported? free air? i have an upper strut brace fitted to the back of my car (inthe boot) so my sub upgrades are kinda tricky... who did your sub install? i'm thinking of a single 12 Type-S or TSW1200DVC on a mono amp or 4-ch amp, but there's just no room...!!

i'm knocking off pretty soon, so i'll be on MSN from 12:30am onwards if y'all wanna drop in for a chat...

Hey guys,

I hope in these comings months I'll join you as proud FTO owners! I'm currently looking at three cars on the market.

I'm also an Eastern Suburns boy; I live in Templestowe, and work at Sportsco in Shoppingtown. So next time you're there, come in and see if there's a Greek looking guy with a 'Jono' nametag (I'm actually South African, but hey...)!

Heh, I'd love to check out your car during lunch!

All the best fellas.

Heh, well I'm only working next on Saturday, so if you're going to be at Shoppo then, stop by for sure!

I'm sure we can come to a mutually beneficial agreement 8)
