RA-R alloys are about 300 quid each from Japan parts, not too bad.

Rallysoob, that is one heck of a Hawk you have. Great to see an Impreza used and made back in line with its roots.

Not that you can see much of the diffuser on tbh. It just never lights up enough being under the motor on photo's. Looks epic in the flesh.
My mate got some more photos of it on Sunday at Shelsley. I'll see what they come out like.
It would be a doodle to fit if you are thinking of going for a side exit exhaust. Took a bit of cutting and thinking about though as i wanted to keep my RCM exhaust as it sounds sic. Had to do a re-route of about 6", moving the backbox towards the center of the motor.
Worth it though...
Thanks btw RallySoob

I've been at 370 for a while now and done about 5 trackdays. I would say I put it through its paces. I've been told that the hawk boxes were improved and stronger than the other newages
The 5 speed works well for me on track. Only downside is on the long straights. I know a few guys with 6speed that get a higher top speed in time due to having that 6th gear.
