i would invest in a new headunit
(possilby used, can got alot better value for money)

the 2008 hayabusa engine is a 1340cc with a claimed 194bhp,

if your going down these streets,
sack the renault engine off, and but a hyabusa engine in the back
now THAT would be cool,
as for the renault engine,

if theyre too tight,
hammer a slightly smaller socket over the top,
and treat it like a normal bolt,
my mate lost the key and this is how we got them off,
its scary how well it works
you probs would find this without me hinting,

if it moves too much, it'll snap your exhaust,

other than that its a lovely car.
back could use lowering too
technically yes,
but insurance company's have been know to ask neightbours who they see drive the car,
along with other sneaky ways to find out who drives the car,
theyre not stupid, and they do anything to get out of paying,

my mate put a 35% tint on a factory tinted window (aprox 10%)
and when he got pulled over, it was letting 30% light throught.
you can get 3 points per window for...
