Yes mine is 6mm iirc.

Bosch aero's on mine

Anyone have the standard sti boot badge they don't want, assume it's the same for the hatch and saloon. Just mines been completely debadged and think it needs a little something.

Cheers

Couple of updates. Head unit fitted a few weeks ago. Also fitted a WC Lathewerks si-drive **** cover probably around a year ago but this week ordered a dome badge to stick inside the top. Measured it and sent the measurements away to have the badge made for £8. Pretty happy with it

Is whiteline the only company who produce rear uprated drop links in the UK for the sti hatch? There's loads in the states but what with shipping and import they're pricey.

Just wondered if there was any more choice really

CDF racing will prob be doing some very soon, pop the a call.

ok will do.

I'm running on borrowed time - I took my rear bar off last night...

the story is I bought a rear whiteline roll bar a few months ago and the right hand stiffest setting hole wasn't drilled out properly. I put it on medium and called whiteline who sent me a front bar as a good will gesture. Last night I thought I'd have a go at drilling the hole out bigger so I could up it to the stiffest setting but in manipulating the drop link I somehow burst the ball joint boot and all the packing grease has oozed out. So I have to get some soon!

Can't believe how bendy the shafts are on the oe links too. Must be getting next to no performance out of the uprated bar

been busy today while the car's been on the drive!

adding more BHP



I'll do a 'How-To' guide when I get 5mins to do the write up lol


And also I've added the go fast red stripe to the front grille..

took ages to get the lining up done to tape it then use red nail varnish to paint it.

Red stripe fitted to my grille to & White SickSpeed Horns.






Ghost Shadows mounted in the doors.


As much as I liked the 08-10 front end I cant help but think the facelift looks mucho better..

Next job, Bottom line kit to fit

And people say the hatch is ugly...That looks absolutely stunning!

I finally got round to cleaning and polishing my car this weekend and thought I'd put up a few pics. I got a bit upset by the state of my paint work as I was polishing it, the front is peppered with stone chips and the paint on parts for the rear bumper looks like orange peel...is this common on the Hatch?
The car is mechanically standard apart from having the PPP fitted and a Pro-R filter. Cosmetically, it's got RallyArmor mud flaps, an STI front lip, Zunsport lower grill and a CS400 upper grill and some 18's (not sure what they are though). Its also fitted with a clear lens and the LED reflectors. Last cosmetic change will be the Bluebat overlays on the rear lights.
Next month I'm going to get the Prodrive lowering springs and a thicker RARB and if CDF start making stuff, I'll get some new droplinks and bushes as mine are starting to rattle.




Cheers,
Steve

Get that blinkin' dealer sticker off te rear window :P

I forgot it was there, but it's on my list.....now

Steve your wheels are forged BBS alloys off a euro spec hatch. Nice wheels worth keeping onto - stronger and lighter than most aftermarket items. A

Cheers A, that's cleared that one up. I bought them off a forum member last year and I've only just got round to fitting them. I'm not totally convinced on the colour though...

Noticed I was losing oil this weekend from the Scoob, On my drive.. in my garage, oil under the car when I've parked up etc. (after driving/engine running)


Rang John Wood at Beechwood yesterday and he said bring it down (check oil level to see how much I had before I drove over to Derby - I had plenty on the dipstick)

He got me booked me in for this afternoon.

Popped over.. drove very steady... Their mechanic (same guy who fitted my Prodrive/Eibachs the other week) got it on the ramp.. whipped the under tray off (covered in all) oil all over the oil filter.. started car.. oil coming out a small hole in oil filter at the back of it!

20mins later, all sorted, New filter fitted.. all new oil added and Chris at Beechwood looked after me on price too


can't say thank you enough. Car runs lovely again

glad you got it sorted, that could have ended in disaster! - what make and colour was the filter?

blue and subaru

Blue are the ones on recall if you still have it

...........and only certain batch numbers.

Picking my hatch up tomorrow,. cant wait now

any pre photos yet?

I've got some left over from mine,
It is lasting well and has survived many jet washes,
More than welcome to try it(free of charge)

Congrats, good choice and the right colour how long before the ARBs and drop links?

you're a few days too late Craig.. see pix at top of page

Pml

No change there then
Just trying the new iPhone app and yours was the first I saw lol

It's bit strange this new app, just tried it now you've mentioned it

It's not too bad(after a few hours of playing with it) just gotta work out how to put a few pics up now
