Highly recommend the Haltech to other S15 owners.... Car feels so good to drive now J
Havn’t lost petrol consumption (except for when enjoying the added power)

WELD ABS heat shield now installed too :)




Also found out my Air Diversion Plate is a JDM Factory option :)

Thank you. Yeah contemplating spending the money for an aero bar, but $1500 for a front bar alone is just ridiculous...
I completely agree..... Don't forget after the $1500 for the bar you then have to get it colour matched to the car.... another $400

Correct... + since my car is my daily driver + i plan on hitting the skid pan & eventually drift it, i wouldn't want to see a nice expen$ive aero bar get ruined by scrapes and stone chips....

The aero bar, i feel has lost its rarity status in OZ...They are starting to get common as more more aero S15's are being imported. Also the addition\sales of fiberglass copies adds to the commonality.

Got a new WELD ABS heat shield on the way WELD coilpack cover and thinking about injectors but still deciding on a turbo....

No worries on option list... was good to see all accessories thought it might be helpful to others...

Will try and get a better pic of the diversion plate... was after the blue cusco ones but when a factory one came up i had to have it :)

nice. I think swaybars are the biggest handling improvement. I know when I did mine it felt sooo much better. That heat shield looks great. Form the pics, it seems to be really well made. What is the turbo?

Thanks Chris, swaybars 110% difference noticed :)

Heat shield is well worth the money for quality and finish + usefullness...... Turbo is Precision....
