Too late now anyway as its already on the way

I've just ordered a pair of DC stickers for the rear flaps...

Hopefully they will be the right size and not too big.... Otherwise they may end up in the front quater trim recesses..

Could some nice helpful person measure the width of the rear SUBARU chrome sign on the left of the hatch for me. I'd do it myself but the car is a 700 mile round trip away !
Cheers.

Hey WRX/Diesel/Non STi owners..

Fancy posting up your pics of an STi/quad tail pipe back box on your car? I want to check a few things and need some reference shots. I know a couple of you have done it..

I am with you now & can see your point,

Cheers.

Well the STi gone now, gutted dropping it off. Had to follow head this time not heart. Looked at service record, it had covered 2500mls in the last 12 mths. Wasted IMO. Would have kept if the Mrs didnt have the fear of driving it and we did arond 10,000mls a year. But hey ho, end of an era for now, for me anyway. So for the near future you will see me "shakin that ***" in me R26!!

Cheers

No mate loads to be done for small outlay. What i can gather, 250-260 from just filter + remap. they reckon its a good engine, very torquey. Its the handling im after, not that im a demon driver btw, not into straight line speed. Light car to begin with i think.
Gutted last night sending scoob away, looked at the service sheet and we had only done 2500mls in a year. Gonna leave R26 as is for now, couple of styling mods to make it my own then we shall see.

Butt ugly!! says me coming from a hatch! You sort of like em once you drive them, really suprising how good they are, to me anyway.
Can you do me a nice R26 sticker in dark grey as in the chequer on car, bout 10cm x 5cm? The type with the checkered edge to the R.
