Thumbs up 53WRX FTW.....

Huge thanks to Stu for helping with (Well doing most of actually) changing over the Back box on the Scoob. Loving your ramps.

Now got a nice civilised car again. Arrived home without a headache! Done with being noisy for a while, but the downside is no flames anymore. Oh, and I'll now have to have conversations with Trace on any long journeys!

Stu, fancy doing another STi back box "special"?

Been thinking about losing the NUR Spec now the baby is here and putting my original STi back box on. Loved the job you did on yours

Yeah, no probs, wait till the summer though as I only have the garden to spray in Takes about 3-4 cans of VHT to cover it properly with thin layers Brian's looked really stealthly as he drove off as you just see the tail pipe and not a massive box that comes with the STi one
