Just looked through those pics mate.... DSC_680 (and 685) - On the right hand side of the boot (as you look at it from that view) is that water thats dripped onto the trim when you open the boot?

Mine does exactly the same thing and the leak is getting pretty bad (misting up the rear window now and condensing by the 'parcel shelf' vents)... worth keeping an eye on if it is the case. Just wish i could find a fix!

 

spoiler fell off

hopefully tomorrow my splitter, and sti badges will arrive

 

Normally don't like the look with no spoiler but the little lip spoiler actually suits the car. Good choice

 

Thanks.

 

Phwoarrr!

 

Looks very tidy, great work

 

Cheers, smaller plate ordered for the front, what gauges are people using bar defi ? Any with a startup sequence

 

Cracking job mate, the car looks fantastic.

 

Good job bud

Looking sweet mate!

Not sure about the Sti badges going on a Spec-D but it depends if the stealth look was ever the plan.

Where'd you get those replacement vents?! I'm jealous!

 

was only £30 too,

im going for a wrx sti limited look

 

It looks brilliant! Don't fancy using the machine polisher on mine do you?!!

 

You didn't say where from mate... surely not Subaru themselves for that amount?

 

no, lol millwood automotive

 

Managed to luck out on one of these



Best mod yet



Jake

 

Very nice car looks spot on

 

Very nice mate

 

Thanks,

Splitter should be here tues, group buy on another forum,

I also ordered some of these



Boost and water temp, you know head gasket protection lol

Gave the car another coat of hd wax then had another clean under the bonnet, thinners and a tooth brush lol

 

Here's a quick beading pic.





I've said it before hd wax is a great product, it really is ESP given you can buy it on eBay for about £25.00, it comparable to a lot more expensive waxes and that's talking from experience

 

Try again,

These ordered.

App snow is forecast next week so need to learn how to use the dif and ope they tyres work lol

Could anyone recommend an oil for it too?

 

Very nice mate, good job on the cleaning!

 

**** stealth

How did you get the grille badge on? I've tried removing all the press stud things and still can't get either the Centre piece or the right hand section to come out, don't really want to force them as they're not the most sturdy bit of kit.

Lovely job by the way, like the lip spoiler.

 

They just clip out, there's about 5 clips.

 

Today's update

I redrilled the holes I welded shut, and fitted the sti spoiler,
Then set about the gauges, took the tmic off to acces the grommets. Ran wires to the gauges and then used the clock for feeds. I had bought a water pipe coupler to house the water temp sender. I have just found out this needs to be earthed so I'm hoping that's why my temp gauge reads 150 at the mo.

Splitter also turned up so fitted that with speed clips and rag bolts.

Sadly the electric has been out all day at work so no pics bar This one.
