Thanks Kev.

Swop?

Patience isn't one of my strengths so I'm trying not to think about it at the moment, I'm trying to source some goodies for it's arrival.

I want a front bumper splitter but I can't really find one that I really like, I've looked at a Prodrive UK300 lip but it's not really prominent enough for my liking but the Greddy style splitter might be a little over the top.

Any other suggestions?



Also I want to get a set of Hella supertone horns but the question is red and black or yellow and blue?

 

Ship Ahoy Tyron Let thar be no dragoons on the high seas, savvy

 

I have a suggestion why dont you just leave it as it is It looks spot on as it looks now apart from the mirrors and a few little bits that you have already got think you have the spending bug again

are the horns for the sheep on runs etc..

by the way that bug in the pic looks terrible very max power lol

 

Thanks Simon, and no pixies either as they've been sighted after an absence as well, as they're devious little f***ers and can't be trusted.

Hopefully the biggest threat to the incoming S202 will be Somali pirates.

 

The car continues it's slow progress towards the UK.

I've bought / ordered a few more goodies for the car namely a new set of Samco radiator hoses plus plus a full ancillary hose set both in red.

A set of carbon fibre mud flaps from Bodski plus a set of Hella Supertone horns as well.

I'm also going to order a set of WRC Rallytech flaps in red with white S202 logos, I think the red flaps will go well against the WR blue bodywork.

I'm undecided on which flap set to keep but might keep both, I'm really not sure yet.

Once the car arrives I'll get hold of a set of red CDF Racing lightweight pulleys, as all the drive belts are being changed it makes sense to change them as well.

 

bet you can't wait. you've some nice bits already lined up.

Not a fan of red on blue though, looks a bit chavy IMO,

Black or blue on a wr blue just looks right

 

I know what you mean about the red flaps, I'm still undecided on the colour and black would look better than blue.

I might just leave it until the car arrives as I've got a set of 'proper' carbon fibre flaps on the way so it's not as if I need to rush to get a set at present.

Yes I'm really looking forward to getting hold of the car, although after it's been serviced and other jobs carried out it'll be parked up on the whole until spring 2014.

 

i ve got a set of red scoobyworld flaps that i took off after about 4 weeks and replaced with a good set of carbon flaps, Will dig them out and get a pic to you if its only a temporary fit, Still in great condition.

 

Sorry I somehow missed your post Lee, I'm leaving the lip or splitter idea to one side as I can't find one that I like so I'll leave it as is.

The horns are for the safety aspect as well as the fact that the factory horns sound like a wet fart in a paper bag.

 

I've already got a set of carbon flaps on the way but I'd be interested to see the Scoobyworld items look like.

 

Not long now Ty! New you'd start modding

Keep it sensible now!

Si

 

Ty, you need to get to your local MA meeting..

"My name is Tyron, and I am addicted to modding".

I knew it wouldn't last, just don't fettle with it too much

 

Couldn'r resist Ty sorry...

 

Just a few minor cosmetic mods really - Zunsport lower grille, JDM window deflectors, carbon fibre flaps and Window tints.

Other modifications are the Hella Supertone horns, Walbro 450lph (as I don't trust an 11/12 year old fuel pump), Summit front and rear braces (stiffen the handling up), CDF Racing lightweight pulleys plus the necessary remap for UK fuel.

All very minor and in fact I'm putting quite a few things back to factory - the mirrors, side repeater and wing marker lamps. It will be inherently standard with a few choice 'tweaks'.

This is restrained Rich, and that really is it for mods I've said from the off I intend to enjoy this car rather than worry about it.

Damn Mantas, you shouldn't of shown me that UK300 lip and those wheels look familiar as well.

 

It's the only subtle lip i like on the bugs, not a lot to chose from

 

That's exactly what I've found, and I've trawled the whole Internet trying to find something that I'd like.

 

Is it here yet? ?

 

Not quite yet, only another 7 weeks or so until I can pick her up.

 

Ty i think black or carbon fibre flaps would look best on blue car ,i had carbon on my blue one looked great

 

monga bodykit front bumper, you know it makes sense.
I painted my hella supertones black, the red looks odd on a wr blue car if its the only red bit on the car.

 

Cheers Glenn, that is what I have on the way.

Thanks Tubbs, I did think about a Monga bodykit but I didn't want to see pics of my car turning up on a certain FB group. The shame would be more than I could bare.

I have a full set of red Samco radiator, ancillary coolant and air intake hoses on the way via the Samco staff shop so I think I will be keeping the horn grilles red.

I was considering the yellow/blue Hella Sharptone horns that you can order from India until I realised it would more look more than a little naff.

 

LOL, aren't we all though?

I have found out that when you do too many things at once or even worse buying mods before having the car you may end up getting bored easily.

Speaking from experience with my previous 205 when each day I would specify something else for my friend to build.

 

nice corolla, so can you swap the parts between Toyotas and subaru's
like an early brz

 

I like them supertone thingys red ty, thought they looked quite nifty on ye olde spec c :-)

 

Jealousy is a terrible thing Tubby.

Yes I had them before, they look good as well as sounding a lot better than the factory sounding wet fart in a bag.

 

That splitter is aweful!!

Isn't 450lph over kill for a standard ish car?? I'd go for the Deatschwerks DW300 (320lph) had one in my EVO and was sooo much quieter than the 255lph Walbro that was in there when I bought it and was good for over 500bhp

http://www.deatschwerks.com/products...s/dw300-detail

 

I agree the Greddy style splitter is over the top, especially as the S202 doesn't have side skirts so it'll look totally out of place.

The only reason I was going to go for the Walbro 455lph fuel pump because having had one before I know they are very quiet and are very well made. It may well be over the top for the power level, but it'll easily cope but I can see your point about the DW300, but by the time import duty and customs fees are taken into account then it'll be better value to order an RCM fuel pump.

 

I'm sure there must be UK stockist of Deatschwerks stuff, worth a look....
Who makes the RCM pumps? Aren't they Aeromotive 340lph
I "hardwired" my pump in my EVO as there is a problem with voltage drop through the cars loom from the battery not sure if this is an issue on subaru's as well.

 

I will search for a UK stockist and see what they kind of price they are.

I believe that some cars do suffer from voltage issues with the fuel pump or the controller, but I think that was mainly the classic models if I remember correctly.

 

35 days and counting until the car lands in the UK.
