Hi guys, quick question, to connect an Ipod nano to the standard head unit is it just a jack plug connector I need with 3.5mm jacks at each end, thens runs off trh Aux?

Thanks
Arron

 

Yup. Completes a circuit beneath the box and will pay as soon as you select cd\aux.

 

Cheers Simon, remember reading something about people having a nightmare and was not sure if that was only with the Satnav units, well will order one now, at £1.49 it must be the cheapest thing I have ever bought for the car!!

 

Will be joining the hatchback crew tomorrow -can't wait!

Here's a preview pic ,more to follow soon along with some black alloys/red rim and front splitter,mudflaps - the list goes on...........

 

Anyone know if the sti mudflaps sold by revolution fit both front and rear? as my poor white car is in desperate need of some snow deflectors

Poor Matt and Olly would have a panic attack if they could see the colour of it now

 

they do jap spec ones that do as they were fit to my hatch when i got by previous owner, but i took them off & fitted rally armour flaps as jap spec ones didnt have any flex in them worth spending extra & getting rallly armour ones imo

 

If your talking about the small Prodrive ones for £30/£40 then yes they do with slight modification, or so I have been told anyway.

 

Any pics fitted? They look even better when they are used

Yes, they're not PF discs pictured - PF discs are a fully floating, 2 piece disc.

 

this shape is growing on me

 

nice one bud

 

its the way forward

 

More snow. I had cleared all the snow off the car yesterday morning and this was it when we got home. My poor car.




and the back garden

 

Can't believe the amount of snow...it will be around for a while too!

Brian.

 

Father Xmas has delivered the following to be fitted to my hatch -

Recaro CS front seats (which will finally fix the worst failing of the standard car imo) - just waiting for the bespoke adapters to turn up (you use the standard runners in conjunction with these)



More power & noise - K&N filter and Magnaflow exhaust



Handling - Eibachs springs (not shown), Whiteline front & rear ARB's, front brace and rear subframe bushes (not shown)



Also have an STi copy lip to go on plus a Zunsport black grill set.

Cheers to Mrs D and her fellow conspirators - RB5-286, Steve C, Phil A and Revolution

 

Nice seats fella.Was it all from Revolution?

Might have to check YouTube out for pictures of that exhaust on the car - looks good.

 

wow, someone has been good this year. Can vouch for the Magnaflow, RB5's sounds amazing.

 

Arron, I advised santa of the exhaust and other stuff to get Phil

 

Just how it should be done, still gutted I was not brave enough for the Magnaflow, saying that though I get enough looks at my daugters nursary with the PPP box, with the Maga they would think hell was arriving outside, LOL!!

 

lol

 

Signing in!

Moving onto my third Impreza when I collect it this week coming (was registered on Friday 31st to beat Subaru UK price increase and Vat increase)

It's a Red STI hatch, totally standard (for about 5 minutes no doubt)

Previously had a silver 03 Wrx for 3 years which had quite a bit done to it and after that I had STI version 1 number 21 which was superb and had quite a lot done to it but looked visually almost standard - has a unique version 1 spoiler and a handbuilt STI engine etc

Pleased to be back. Catch me on SIDC as WRXMANIA

Brian :-)

 

looking forward to hearing the magnaflow in action, the standard prodrive exhaust on the 330s just needs burbleing up a little.

post some video clips when fitted

 

Maybe a centre section replacement?

Did that on my Hawkeye and along with the Prodrive backbox released just the right amount without being too neighbour annoying!

The Magnaflow does sound good from what I've heard on Youtube though!

All very nice. I love the seats and have been looking at them on the revolution website. I would love to get the seats but am not convinced I could fit them. I look forward to hearing how you get on and how much of an improvement the seats are.

 

Go back a few pages on this thread and you will see a couple of pics of mine where I have chopped out the center resonator pipe and replaced for a straight through section, had to get the pipe custom made as nowhere in the Uk seems to sell a complete straight through pipe, well for a resonable price anyway.

Has made a small difference but nothing like it did ti my Hawk, cabin noise is the same but have been told from the outside its a little louder.

 

I do sort of remember seeing that post but this threads so long now I couldn't be arsed going back and looking again.

I think in time more companies will release a centre section ie H&S?

So in conclusion then it's the back box that seems to make the major difference on cat back exhausts for the hatch?

 

I agree mate, this thread only started out with a few pictures...it's turned into it's own forum within a forum now...I wish SN or SIDC would create seperate sections for all the different models of Impreza, like they do on IWSTI in the States (IWSTI.com: Subaru WRX STI Forums - The Largest Subaru STi Specific Forum in the World!), that seems to work well...or someone could start a GR Series Impreza site in the UK?

p.s. a full turbo back exhaust system (there a few different suppliers now) with a decent cold air intake (in the wing) & a re-map gives the best results on the hatch STI

 

Here you go:


If I get a chance next weekend and its not too cold I'll get the Mrs to shoot a quick vid as I drive past to give you an idea of sound level.

Remember now!

Surely more companies will start making a standard centre resonator section replacement pipe sooner rather than later.

I haven't seen a diagram (or the real thing for that matter - YET) so not sure of all the different components for the hatch exhaust but I would of thought it'd be pretty standard and similar to other models, until it gets to the back box that it is.

 

They are around but cost an absolute fortune, have seen them for £200+ just for the centre pipe, most of which are only available in the US so with shipping are a joke costwise, this cost a hell of a lot less.

Scoobyworld are looking into making one up but I just could not wait!!

 

Im sure Hayward & Scott do them if not they will make anything you want anyway


Impreza Turbo - '08 onwards - Subaru


might be worth a ring
