Hello Club! So I'm Sam from Auckland, New Zealand! Have had my 2006 MPS 6 for about 4months now and loving it but starting to get the itch for some little mods here and there and where better to find all the information than here. Wondering if anyone else knows any other Kiwi's on here as I don't think anyone likes to mod their MPS' down here, and it's so hard to even find someone else with one in Auckland i'll probably never know. Went from this...  To this:  ...so it's quite an upgrade and i'm looking forward to the impending satisfaction ahead!

Thanks for all the welcomes guys!
Will slowly update my progress on my baby; I'm planning to get a cold air box + intake and maybe a performance tune/chip later on. Then want to lower it also - not sure whether lowering springs or adjustables are the go yet but the problem with adjustables is that here in NZ to make it legal you then have to certify it which costs an extra $500NZD, ontop of the extra $1K+ I would spend to get the parts! Although the ride height ability and handling may make it worth it. Also want to do a few bits and bobs to the exterior but not sure what exactly to do yet.
On another note, how do i create a signature?

On another note, how do i create a signature? Welcome mate If you just want a signature like mine you go into the user control panel at the top, click on profile then edit signature Can't believe you have to get the suspension certified! Tone

You have to be a paid member to get a signature.
