I tidied the engine bay up a little today after fitting my Perrin radiator shroud, RallyTech bolt kit (Really disappointed as loads missing) and intercooler cover. Well worth the effort!




Before



After

 

Looking loads better

 

My first time at Prescott hill climb school , the aim isn't speed as its not timed , it's a scored day with the aim to g the best lines

 

Brilliant sight watching the hatch come up the hills through the twisties car is gleaming
How did u finish up?

 

double post

 

Marks were 70% so room to improve , haven't done any track sort of driving in a few years now so still a bit rusty and getting used to the different settings the hatch has but all in all a really good day out

 

Hill climb school sounds good.
Pot of gold at the end of the rainbow

 

That looks awesome, well done fella

 

Much better, just doing mine at the moment, had Rallytech kit on my blobeye, still got bits leftover that i will use

 

it's nothing to worry about

I'm having trouble finding the original splitter my WRX-S is supposed to have from factory. When I got the car there was no splitter there, so I need to find one, any ideas ?

 

Any one be interested in a full Hayward and Scott exhaust system as my mate is building a rally car out of a hatch and has one coming off ,, think it's full 3" but would have to check first , think he said £350 for the full system but again would need to confirm

 

To fit a 08 Hatch ?
is it 4 end pipes ?
Thanks

 

Yeah fits 08 and has the quad pipes ,, will have pics early next week

 

great interested in it

 

One for Don

Type UK decals for the rear quarter light on the Hatch, is there a part number for these?

 

Not as such as they are a Subaru UK add on.

When my originals came off due to frost damage I obtained a couple under warranty. (although never fitted)

You would need to inquire with Subaru UK direct or though a dealer as to their availability.

 

Just dug them out of my graphics box......



Looking every bit their 5 years of age.
Unable to separate the backing paper without damage.

Rob Ostle (rob84) may be a useful source for this

 

I'd be interested in a pair of these also. Although there's already alot going on on the rear windows already. A subaru stamp inside and out , a large sticker telling me about central double locking , and another large "isr" sticker. Does the International Security Register have any real use ? Is it a subscription thing or in any way a deterrent to thief's?
Might just pull them off and put the Type UK on , seeing mine are completely missing !

 

That pic might be enough to be able to recreate them as i couldnt find a template online as such. Would you be able to measure dimensions of it? Like total length/height off Type, then of UK?

Cheers,
Craig

 

Managed to gently remove the transfer paper off of one of them without doing too much damage...



The overlap between TYPE and UK vertically is about 2mm

Seem to be a metallic grey colour rather than silver


Nearest type face I've found is evolver

Great stuff Don much appreciated

 

R205 suspension setup now on the car, feels amazing, still nice and firm but without the harshness you tend to get with coilover setups.

Just beware if you go for it and order them, there are many sundry items to order on top like top mounts, spacers, spring seats, helpers, dust covers and nuts and bolts.

 

Looks nice in white 👍👍👍

 

Couple of pics from my day at Prescott hill climb school

 

anyone managed to get a decent colour match product for the leather on the seats to hide wear marks?

 

Also interested in this , nearly bought a kit off ebay for "grey" which seemed to have a few shades you must mix. I chickened out , thought I'd maybe make it worse !
For your info , Leather Lab near me quoted £90 to fully restore the leather on my drivers seat. They seem to work miracles but dont think mines bad enough to warrent the price just yet.

 

OK so I am one of a few owners on here of a WRX-'S which was a limited edition run with a bit of Prodrive magic sprinkled on it. I have tried to find out how limited the production run was but haven't found any info yet. Any body have any info or links, all I can find are contemporary reviews that all mention the limited edition status but don't say how limited.

I was having a play on "how many left" and it shows 262 registered. With a maximum of 275 since production started. If that's correct then it's rarer than a P1! Ha ha!

I am aware there may be many that were registered as WRX.
Any info greatly welcome. CHEERS

Unless you have a JDM model or changed the engine , you have a 2.5L ej255 and definitely not an STI

 

I have a UK WRX-S that the engine went, the whole thing was taken out and an ej20 STI engine fitted ;-)
