Ok thanks for the advice Paul. Which exact model of vreds are you using?

Tyre brands vary in their stated width compared to their actual width, just a case of finding what you like.

Cheers Paul, any chance of a front and side on pic of a wheel so I can see how much more they sit out/bulge, I think the 265's may be a little too wide as I run a 35 offset so may rub a little much on the inner arch as the 245's are close enough!

Have a look at the silver one about halfway down on http://subaruhatch.forumotion.com/t3...8-wheels-hatch and for a side on shot try http://subaruhatch.forumotion.com/t3...powder-coaters

Hi

Bit of a long shot but does anybody know anything about my Subaru Impreza Wrx Hatchback

The reg number is BN08 ZHK and its blue in colour

I posted last week in the general section and was told to try this post.

I bought the car about 6 months ago after crashing my hawkeye and I am just trying to find out a bit about its history and seem to be struggling.

Any help would be much appreciated

Thanks Aaron

As i said the cars getting there now, i will leave the other mods as a supprise but the exterior should be finished within a few months and i can then move to performance upgrades
Looking good where's the best / cheapest place for these rally armour mudflaps? What did they cost you if you don't mind me asking?

just buy some of these.. £65, if you want the Kaylan ones at £130 get those.

http://www.performancecreations.co.u...range-50-c.asp


I've done a fitting guide too.. search for it


my friend TedEd bought some RallyTech ones.. cost him £130 shipped.. then two weeks later he got a £25 bill from customs to pay!!

I said he'd of been better to by the kaylan flaps at £130... job done!

Your local dealer should be able to help you. Got all the history for our hatch STI off a dealers database. Just need Reg and possibly VIN number.

Yep, trick indeed.

Seen a couple of the rad / oil coller installs ( Chevron of Staffordshires ?? ) - very nice indeed.
Mind the hose routing ... fire otherwise!

How's the GT35 .. need launch control to get moving or does it go OK as is?

Guess you're running around 600 bhp/lb ft?

Yeh it made that on 2bar but now have a map with 2.2 bar and it is seriously quick so I'm guessing a fair bit more but until its goes on rollers that's speculation lol also gonna have a go with some meth so perhaps will see over 700. The 35 is no probs to get going without the launch control just get the revs up and off ya go lol tried it with the anti lag on the other day and nearly blacked out lol.

Thanks mate i actually bought them from the rally armor website they worked out at around £150 in the end with postage so not cheap. But they are great, really pleased with them. I was also hit with import tax when i received them tho which i was not told about before hand which was £36 so they ended up being £186

As much as you're willing to pay, but you'll need to factor in a forged re-build at some point!

Ouch! Thats steep but definitely the best ones I've seen. Ive got the cheapish evobits ones, dont want the ones Salsa-king has got. Might ask a mate from New York to bring a set over when he next comes over. I also quite fancy the GTSpec flat bottom steering wheel

Hey buddy, please make sure you get your information correct before posting!

Our mudflaps are not 130 pounds shipped. They are $160 US shipped. If your friends order total was 130 pounds then I'm pretty sure he bought additional items also.

$160 is 103 pounds. Even if you get charged customs fees of 25 pounds like your friend did that still makes our flaps 128 pounds, the kaylan ones you mention are 130 so our flaps still work out to be cheaper.

Not only are ours cheaper, they are a superior product - fact.
- 4mm minimum thickness motorsport compliant (you can't use 3mm any more)
- Twin mounting holes that allow you to lower or raise the flap 30mm.
- CNC cut flaps for a perfectly smooth edge, not rough like the pressed flaps.
- 1.5mm waterjet cut aluminum brackets, powdercoated as standard (instead of the cheaper, thinner stainless steel ones that come with razor sharp edges!)
- Full stainless steel mounting hardware
- Express shipping included in the cost meaning you will probably get our flaps faster than you would ordering them from the UK.
