Wow...they still make the wagons...those were here for only one year here in the states...04 model...and they only came in automatic too...good luck with your car man...Road Race Motorsports makes turbo kits for the 4G69 Manual... http://www.roadracemotorsports.com/

Less than 1 week of ownership, and ive already transferred the stereo out of my old car into the wagon :P

This subbox used to consume the whole boot in the echo! Looks Tiny now!

I used the factory brackets, instead of the mounty things... If i put the trim around it, id have to mount the head unit a good 5mm forward so i didnt bother. Its only really me who see its, and i drive mostly at night anyway 

The badge under the side indicator says "MIVEC"
Today, I....
- got it tinted today .
- took the 2x12 subs out
- put in a single 10" sub

that wagon is sweet. Maybe some sweet rims to finish off the look? O and put an EVO spoiler on top of it
jp. Rims and Progress Race Springs would be sweet. Lower tie bar and sway bar + perches would be sweet to.

Nice looking wagon sP33Dy! 
Daammm...wish mine were 5spd too....lol
You should get the front strut bar and also the RRM Progress rear Swaybar & perches with the tiebar (or get some local RPW equivalents for those)...the wagon will handle a lot better at speed and in the corners with those mods...next the pulley and maybe the SRI or CAI.
Just curious...can you take a closer pic of that badge?

needs some rims big time,and do you load that wagon up or what ,if so what gas millage are you getting ?
As mentioned previously, ive only had it 3 weeks tmmw ........ rims and more stuff will come in 'time' . For the moment, im perfectly happy ! It's a big step up from my last car -- a 1.3L Toyota Echo with Teins / 15"s / Rice Muff / etc etc.

At present All im carting around day to day is a 10" sub
Milage... not sure........ but i drove 460kms on a tank with 75% freeway, the rest 'spirited driving' , and it took 41L to fill it again (the tank is 50L according to manual). Dunno what that is in US terms of 'milage' .
