New age seats are bloody heavy and not as nice as classic seats...if you can find a v6 UK wagon it has the same from seats as the facelift stis...just different fabric.

Yeah my seats I currently have in my wagon have like hinges on them that open and a catch for the seats to lift properly and have a gloss black metal underneath where as the p1 seats underneath are just yellow foam and have rolling round metal inserts that just stick in a hole.

That sounds right, I can't remember if the seats in the P1 are the same as the v6 cars or not...I think they might be even though its a V5. Big improvement over the non-facelift seats either way. I think there are photos of the V5 and V6 classic seats in the first few pages of my thread...

I removed the Intercooler this evening and dropped the exhaust down and fitted new 3inch turbo back, with 4" back box..... new eardrums and a carbon monoxide sensor later im happy.

I got too changing the other handles and wing mirror today and though I would give the metal a bit of a clean and all mechanism a relevant squirt, grease or oil, having a white car really keeps you on your toes

Don't want to proverbially **** on your chips, but, as mentioned on your steering wheel thread MY97's are odd *****.
My mate that had an MY97 UK Turbo tried fitting JDM door cards, but the windows didn't work off the switches. Don't know if they were duff, or there are wiring differences, as IIRC he just fcuked the idea off.
You might have to play with the wiring, hopefully not though.

This reminds me of my old STI Wagon... The second Subaru I owned and wished I never sold it really, amazing cars and I always liked the classic wagons, look really smart, especially in white!
I suspect yours will look similar to this soon!
