      My new toy!

      Hey guys been a little while since i posted.

      As some of you know, i had an oil line return failure on my car and it damaged my freshly rebuilt engine

      Now i've had the Aveo for almost 8 years and it's time i let it go, despite all the money i've put into it, the different projects i did gave me quite alot of mechanical and technical knowledge so im glad for that one.

      I will be parting out some stuff come next spring and the rest of the car will be sold for scrap metal.

      To keep me busy tho, i gotten myself a new toy for next summer! I can't wait!!

      A 2005 Suzuki SV650 sport bike. I already have a bunch of plans for it!
      - Smoked tail light
      - HID's
      - Full flairing body kit
      - LED flashers
      - New mirrors
      - Carbon fiber exhaust
      - Possibly repaint it or send it to a guy to wrap it in crazy vinyl

      The list goes on, so much stuff you can do to a bike.

      Anyways here's 2 little pics of what it looks like now:






      > 2010 Mazdaspeed 3
      - Fully built, GT35R, 500+ whp

      > 2004 Hatchback 2.0L Turbocharged [RETIRED]
      - T3/T4 T04E .60 A/R Compressor
      - HKS SSQV, OBX Wastegate
      - FMIC with 2.5" piping
      - Tuned with Megasquirt II v3.57

      Sad to see the aveo go, but it was clearly pretty tired.. On the other hand, the bike looks great! I'll take your lowering springs.

      Very nice. Thats the bike I was looking at getting when I was shopping for them. I like the naked look, don't cover it up with fairings.

      Nice SV!

      Keep it naked, that's the best look for street.
      I've got an R6, 636 and FZ1.

      Thought I'd say hi to a fellow biker ..

      Cheers!

      Haha thanks man, Next year it's going to be even better, theres a ton of aftermarket parts for this bike its awesome!

      Even found a programmable fuel controler and a spark ignition system completely plug and play ready to go.

      I'm grabbing the fuel controller with the "M4" full stainless exhaust system. With a K&N performance filter this should give me roughly 10 hp increase, on a bike that's alot!

      It would be extremely easy to turbo this thing with the plug and play ignition control module too lol
