You can use the one from the 150, i imagine you could also use the SS one if you wished.

Gorgeous car, very tastefully done.

some chrome door handles would look nice with those wheels.

Re: My bravo t-jet 120hp (new wheels, springs....)

thanks Tad-bravo! (i am thinking about putting aluminum looking mirrors, that will be enough i think, just tastefully!)

Well, yesterday my bilstein b8 come........
i am feeling i got new car......... its totally more stable, i can go much faster, and feeling more secure on bad roads (on good too)..... its really agile, and you can steer like crazy without loosing the track....... So if anyone is thinking about lowering car with just springs, think about replacing shocks too ..... because the difference is BIG.....

Re: My bravo t-jet 120hp (new wheels, springs....)

comfort is worse than before.... but not when you are riding faster on bad roads......Also, somebody here told me that the car with good shock will not bounce, but thats not the case...... Those bouncings are now just faster, but still here.......

Re: My bravo t-jet 120hp (new wheels, springs....)

I am seriously thinking about 1 thing.....

Achieve at least 200hp....... lets say i have 4000eur to spent
First problem is that i bought 120tjet version which was only available when i was buying the car.... and please dont tell me to sell it and buy new 150version... Because i invested almoust 3000 and dont want to begin from start... i love my srpings/shocks/wheels.... but i dont like the speed..... So what should i do? new turbo? what else?..... and where should i buy "all" those possible parts.....

And one other thing is bothering me.... i want to change seats and buy some aftermaket.... but i heard that want be possible because of airbags?

I think all you can do is swap the turbo over (Its essentially the same engine anyway the 150, just with a bigger turbo)

You could always swapyour turbo for an SS turbo from the punto..... add the GSR induction, and a power enhancing cat-back. Whether you can get all that for less than 4k, thats the question. I would suggest not.

The CD/MP3 player is fitted to the active or where the usb socket isn`t included.. just get yourself a memory stick and bang a load of tunes on it .

You can, but I think you gonna have to get someone at the dealer disable the airbag warning lights for the seats after you've changed them.

for the MP3, if it plays mp3 CD's you'll find that's the best way to listen to your music, if not, you'll need the AUX cable (if available) or get an FM transmitter/modulator to be able to send your mp3player's audio to the stereo.
