It is still blowing a gale down here, so might not be today.

Having time on your hands can be deadly for the wallet, there is one thing that I don't like about the car is the rubbish head unit, it may have an inbuilt 6 disc CD changer but quite frankly it's pants.

Nearly all my music is stored in digital format on my mobile so I had to get a head unit capable of streaming that plus also to be DAB capable as well.

So this afternoon while browsing eBay has cost me as I have ordered a new Pioneer AVH-X3600DAB head unit, plus an adaptor loom to allow the steering wheel controls to work plus a new radio fascia panel as the double din will not quite fit into the existing fascia.

So bowing to pressure I took the car out for a quick jet wash, as the paintwork does need a good detailing there was no point in spending hours giving it a hand wash.

Once you see the pics it should be obvious where I got the car from, at the moment it is totally standard and if I am honest a little plain looking but that is set to change in the near future.

Before anyone says it yes the rear town eye cover is missing, I have got one on order, the bodywork is in very good condition with a couple of very little scars on it to be taken care of.












Please be gentle with me.

I also picked up a couple of admirers, it's OK Rob they are still loyal to you.

I like it ty, your right at present it looks plain but with your bits you've got planned it will look awsome the alloys will change it so much. First dibs on grill when you change it. And any other parts you take off lol not alloys I like mine can't wait to see it when you do your bits to it

Those alloys really suit the car Ty, no need to change them at all

So txt me a price and ill be down tomorrow to collect the GT2's off you. I'll take a chance on them

Ty,

Thanks Daz, it does tend at the moment to just blend into the crowd but with just the exhaust change will sort that out no doubt.

The wheels will make the biggest difference as you have said, and my private plate will be going on as soon as I get the V5 back from the DVLA as well.

Cannon Fodder

iTrader: (100)

Thanks Rob, yes she did say that you hadn't been around in a while and wanted to know if you were playing the field?

I am not sure about bringing her along on Wednesday as taking the car is awkward but I will try.

Cannon Fodder

Thanks Geraint, but your Jedi mind tricks will not work on me.

Make the payment to my secure Nigerian bank account to make a deposit on them, around $1,000,000 should do for the moment.

I might pop on by on my way up to Leominster if you are about in the next couple of weeks, I will let you know when.

The Sheep Worrier

Yeah no worries ty, kettles always on.

Out of curiosity, and I know you'd probably put 99 in whenever possible,can you run nnormal 95octane fuel without the detrimental effects on the engine you would get with an unmapped jdm car? Just wondering :-)

thenewgalaxy

I think that looks really smart in Blue, Ty.

Looking forward to seeing the mods - especially the GT2s - make their way onto the car!

Cannon Fodder

iTrader: (100)

Thanks Rob, as for the fuel definitely not the 2.5's have enough problems with ring land failures, putting a lower octane fuel in there will only give more det and make a potential failure happen even quicker.

Cannon Fodder

Thanks Rich, I think the wheels will totally change the look of the car for the better although I need to get hold of some locking wheel nuts as well before the wheels go on.

The Sheep Worrier

iTrader: (2)

That makes complete sense :-)

big daz2

Ty are you tinting the windows or not?

Cannon Fodder

iTrader: (100)

For me that is a compliment.

Not yet, possibly later on once everything else is on and then I can see how it looks at that point.

For some reason I thought it was white but it looks very nice all the same

I guess under the bonnet it's loaded with all from CDF Racing catalog

ozzreid1964

looking good ty new wheels will def make a difference plus all the other goodies you've got lined up look forward to seeing it in the flesh

STI Glenn

Like said looks nice Ty ,be much better with wheels on ,sticker off

Peter Pan

iTrader: (6)

Is there any CDF goodies already on it Ty??

Cannon Fodder

iTrader: (100)

No definitely not white Kev, I would have liked a white car but the blue does look good and not a common colour for the Hatchback STi as well.

Unfortunately it's not loaded with CDF Racing goodies under the bonnet except for a radiator cooling panel, it would have been nice but when the engine rebuild is under way there will be plenty of opportunity to remedy that

Cannon Fodder

iTrader: (100)

Thanks guys, she'll be undergoing changes soon enough and I'm currently trying to decide on a colour scheme to go with.
