Looking good mate, can you tell me where did you get the dash/pod from? And so you know if it would fit the 08> sti

Cheers

 

I got it off eBay. Private sale.

If you check cluster maker. There American.

 

Now I'm proper confused. Been out their website and on a reseller as well as an American forum and they are only made in LHD how did you fit it to a RHD car?

 

Duno if this is American tbh no name on it at all , could be made in the uk not sure

 

How would it be different left to right hand drive? It's only a surround.

 

From the pictures its the same thing and I've been hunting pods since May so I would imagine it is from the states.

That's my first thought yet it all states that it's LHD only, why would they say of they didn't mean it as they are limiting there custom base.

 

Think it's dad shape, it's slightly out on the right hand side but that's where the damage is also.

 

pics - still undecided on the plate

Nice looking Sti UK spec there you've got there now . I have to admit I think its a shame you went this route rather than the sleek/stealth Limited look but it depends on the final plans I guess (and that is just my opinion on it of course).

Whats next for the exterior? Given the facilities you seem to have there in the pics I'm thinking door hand deletes for smooth lines? A total **** to do I'm sure and would need an aftermarket alarm setup for the solenoids but would be a subtle yet powerful change.... probably a good thing i don't have access to a bodyshop now i come to think of it.

 

Much better with the spoiler on! Think the hawk is the only shape to pull off the square plate. Just need ur wheels done a nice anthracite now and it's done. :-)

 

If u wanted to blank the doors ad buy a door and cut the blanks from it as they already would have the swage line in. Wouldn't be that much hassle to be honest.

 

Good method that. I've never seen it done personally on a Hawk but i'm sure someone must have?! Good project for Jake if not?

 

this one wont be getting painted lol, and will go back to standard when i sell.

i wanted to try the sleeper look, but the kid in me just loves the wing.

 

Am sure someone would have done it. If the search on here wasn't pants you could have looked for some pics

 

Sleeper look is only good if its a sleeper.

 

Bought

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!! burnt tips should be kept for saxo's

 

Lol each to their own

 

+1 .... paint it satin black

 

Lol it'd never stick.

Personally like the afterburner vortex look

 

I think it is safe to say it'll look good either way. I go on about the stealth look but its only because I use my scoob for visiting customer's so can't go wild.

I do a lot of home visits in my job so I got the Spec-D specifically to be able to have fun but not scare customer's kids, rattle their china cabinet and give them an (unjustified) bad impression upon my arrival at their house. Hence any less positive comments from me on styling are most likely tainted by a combination of envy and a forced affiliation to the Spec-D look (not that i mind that cause I love them!)

What are the plans mechanically? I notice the exhaust is non-stock? is that just the back box?
