Zunsport grill is my favourite mod, I just need the scoop one to complete the set, they didn't have the scoop on their site last time I checked -Strange.

Your post reminded me I still have a spare lower grill in the garage with a few other bits and bobs which need ebaying!

So looks like I need front disks and pads grrrrrr!

If I pop these on http://www.godspeedbrakes.co.uk/~god...id_product=131 should I be ok to leave the rear disks as they are as I have just changed the pads on those?

Are These a good price and will fit my 08 hatch?

that'll be fine. I ran mine like that for around 10000 miles until my rears needed changing. You may notice a slight knock when going in reverse and applying the brakes as the pad backing is around 1mm smaller than the standard pads...don't panic though, everything still works as it should

I would worry more about maxing out the head gaskets and pistons Jamie

I think you can get around 350bhp out of one at a push, not sure what the delivery would be like on that though.

I think various people on here have achieved in the region of 380bhp on the standard turbo with a forged engine.

I used one if these: http://www.caraudiodirect.co.uk/ct23...subaru-impreza

You'll also need ISO adapter to connect the wires.

There is a genuine Subaru JDM facia you could get instead of the car audio direct one... But that's approx £80.
