Not without some work it would appear. STi has been 5x114.3 for a while.

Sound a little narrow too - think the standard width is 8.5 inches with a 245mm wide tyre on 18 inch wheels.

Can someone confirm?

Cheers.

 

Yes to the above

Why not go the whole hog and het a R26R ??

I knew nothing about froggy motors but this review educated me!

Renault Megane 225 RenaultSport R26.R full road test car review - BBC Top Gear - BBC Top Gear

yep sti hatch is 5x114.3 you would have to get them custom drilled bud

 

Neil, if i could sell the kids and do without back seats it wouldve been my first choice!! Still needed the creature comforts, wife got to drive it aswell.

Lee

 

Thought it was too good to be true , back to the drawing board. Thanks for the advice Really want the prodrive GT 1 s but struggling to justify the expense.

 

Ha ha loving it Lee.... already getting the decals mods on it....
I'd loose those current chequered decals and go for Mark's ones sooo much cooler


Oh and vinyl wrap the bonnet in matt carbon

 

Already run the new decals past the Mrs. I'm unsure tho, was never into WRX's with STi decals if you know what i mean, mines a R26 and not R26R. Rear spoiler ordered tho. Looking for some kind of mudflap to stop the crap going up the side. Getting upgraded cd player and looking at Miltek cat back. SShhh!! say nowt tho.

Lee

 

ha ha ha miltek already... she'll end up not driving this one also LOL..

Don't badge it incorrectly, just copy the R26R side decals, but with R26 logo... that'll look

 

Haha dont matter what we drive, mod mod mod!!!! Even if it dont need it, mod it!! Havent picked it up yet but ordering all kinds. Decals gonna be a bugger to get off the roof me thinks, or is it quite easy?

Lee

 

Most decals strip off with a hair dryer

 

Err, you trying to imply I now drive a hairdressers car?

Anyone has expierence with these filters? Looking to buy one to replace my dead OE filter!

33-2304 - K&N Replacement Filters, Replacement Air Filter

 

yup running one in mine, i swapped it for the cosworth panel i had, much better response

 

Yep... that'll be a marked improvement on the standard unit

I went for the Cosworth one... but have a K & N panel in my Disco...and the difference was quite instant.

 

too bad that 90% of the comments on the k&n are bad... It would suck more dirt and other sh*t in the engine.

 

If you're nervous, get the cosworth one then.
Both work 300% better than the OEM one

 

i'm gonna get the STI one and give that a shot next

 

Anyone else experiencing the air intake tube popping of the airbox?

Mine's come off 5 times in the last month, one time Dunc from Dynamix re-positioned it and tightened it... only for it to be off again a week later...so it's not me!

Trouble is when it pops off, it's drawing un-filtered hot air from the engine bay... which isn't ideal!

 

Grab youself a zerosports pipe from Revolution, much better and has not come off in 6 months, it does twist a little but always stays on.

 

Cheers Arron

Another £140


I take it back, delivery was set to Scotland...

£120

 

Get the CAI off Stan!! That wont come off!!!

Lee

 

Yeah I know...

But then I got to throw another ton at Dunc to get it mapped!

Ordered the Z/S pipe now anyway...

 

I dont know, you subaru owners and your modding!!! If it aint broke, pretend it is and order summat new of the internet!! Mind you, thats what most of us do anyway. Think it must be in the genes.

Lee

 

Nothing wrong with that

 

codie did the stickers turn up today

 

and un-metered air which is possibly worse as it will make it run lean.

Sounds daft but clean the inside of the pipe and spray hairspray on it - tighten the jubilee and with a little heat from the engine it will set solid and not budge.

 

They did thanks Mark. Exactly what I'm after. Just need bloody car to stick em on.

Thanks

Lee

 

Finally managed to give the hatch a bufty
