Guys.I've got a brand new dr colorchips roadrash kit in mica blue (code 95h) if anyone wants one-£30
It's unused and comes complete.I've gone to the darkside now,so it's gathering dust.
Hope that's a reasonable price-thought I'd offer it locally first.pm me if interested...Cheers
And I'll chuck in an unused can of 95h that I had mixed up for me-unused too

Right that's it! I've had enough! Cars going off the road.

I'm sick of cleaning white wheels and getting back ache every time i drive my Legacy. The wheels and tyres are coming off and i'm most likely going to have them painted bronze with a bronze grill.

My brakes are coming off and the discs sent to someone who can skim them flat again. I'll also fit a stopper to the master cylinder thingy for a better feel.

All the speakers are coming out and being replace with good quality components.

The from seats are coming out and being replaced with bugeye WRX items. All interior carpets are coming out and being steam cleaned until they are new again!

All vacuum line and water pipes are to be replaced in silicon.

All interior plastics are going to be professionally dipped in either a carbon or a black wood design.

Any rust spots are going to be dealt with and the car given to someone to correct the paintwork.

Then both turbos are to be replaced with bigger ones once i've worked out how to tune the damn thing!

Erm... thats my plans for the winter.... thanks for reading....

Edit...

And

- Fit Razo pedals
- Fit oil temp and pressure gauges
- De-clutter interior
- Redo all wiring
- Spray rusty wipers satin black
- Do lots of overtime at work to fund it all

Had another great day with all of you at leamington. Was cold but the company was warm. Would have been a perfect day if the weather had been a bit better, but was a very good day. Great vids mark, thanks for doing that. Helen was well impressed <not LMAO> you managed to record her talking and laffing. See you all again soon. BTW, im hoping (by selling my lungs) I'll be getting a SC46 and new pistons (thanks to some of you, im worried to death my car is going to blow up coz of the 2.5 failures that are going on) and some other bits'n'bobs to get a 460bhp monster before xmas via scoobyclinic.

The spoiler i ordered from japan has got "lost" and their sending me another. Im hoping I'll end up getting two and flog one on here. It'll be a knock down price of course

Not to put a downer on it, but do the hatch wrx have a 5 or 6 speed box.
If it's a 5 speed it won't take 460bhp for long they are lucky to cope with 350bhp and at 460bhp thats deff needs a fmic, bigger injectors, uprated clutch and gearbox.
It's not cheap getting big power

Agree with Stu, if its only a 5 speed box (unless its the WRX s that has a 6 speed box), you'll stip 3rd gear in no time even at 320hp.

put a post on the main SN about engine builders i think you might find there are alternatives.

Just a quick note, for the lakes run in Feb next year, it may be more favourable if we travel up on the sunday if people prefer, its 2hrs 20 mins from stetchford, as it starts at 9am not to early a start to get there.

just a thought

Yep, you're right guys. Have spoken to Kev at scoobyclinic, new gearbox would be needed. We're talking about £11,000 all-in, which I just dont have, so im splitting over a year, im getting forged pistons, gaskets, fluids, a brembo brake kit (2nd hand off a hatch STI thats only done 6000 miles), that lot comes to a whopping £4,500-£5,000. I'll get the turbo, gearbox and upipe/intake pipes end of next year.
