HY!
Yesterday, i build the Intake
here pictures
i used 3 Visaton bass box ports with 64mm diameter and 24cm².
it was easy to make the holes with a 63mm holesaw
The sound is very nice, and not to loud
i can feel a better respond and 4500u/min upwards more power, the engine runs freer and faster up to the limiter

Hy!
On Thursday, i changed the 225/40 R18 on the front wheels to 245/40 R18 its the correct diameter to the original 225/55 R16.
here the pictures:
left side 245, right side 225
mounted
and on the SC
looks much better!
i orderd for the new middle section from the exhaust system to remove the 3rd converter a 3" resonator with 10" long. Not more is needed
The car hifi is also on work
i changed the original amp to 2 seperat small amps and a active crossover and installed all on the original mounting rack.
original amp
i hope i find time on the weekend to finish the system

I'm surprised you didn't want to go with a touchscreen since you were doing that work in the dash anyway. I'd pop a decent fold down, integrated DVD screen in there. Either way, though, it looks like you're doing all the work the right way. It's nice and clean.

My first idea was a double DIN radio, but i think, the display is in the night to bright and it blinds (right word?). my first choice was the kenwood radio, but i pay in austria ~ 1200 Dollar for this radio! this is to much. i had a ´01 RX300 and the navi screen was in the night to bright. this was not fine to drive.
The SC is only for nice weather and weekend, i need only a good radio in my car No DVD, no navi, maybe bluetooth was a good part from the newer radios, but, i don´t phone if i drive.
Monday or tuesday comes the USB Box instead the cd-changer and i can install complet the radio in the dash.
