Gave the new toy a wash......RB5 No 092

Gave the new toy a bit of a clean. It needed a full clay session to get a load of nasty crap off the surface. Followed by a nice Black Diamond Wax, and now she's all shiny and clean.

The only I think is that I'd prefer a standard wing and bonnet scoop and maybe take off the Eibach Coilovers for some standard STi suspension.

Here's a few pic's.......

Had thought that, no problem on the scoop, but being fussy I want a proper Prodrive spoiler on it

I bought it with the mods already on, but yes it's on a standard UK STi box (Uprated diff though)

Standard box isn't expensive though so if it goes pop I'll drop a new one in....

Yep cheap as chips now and stronger than people think. I ran 390 bhp & 380ftlb on mine till I changed to the albins and it was still ok then.

Looking good. I agree about looking out for a Prodrive spoiler though.

love those wheels, what are they (and in what colour?), got invoit redlines in glossy black but not getting on with the colour combination.

wish my rb5 looked anywhere near this clean but parked out on the street means it'll get dirty rather quickly
