Cool

Here's my humble MY96.

First, 18 months ago when I bought it:


And today, many mods later:




What do you all think?

Cheers chaps,


Wilf, thinking about a different grille badge, but wouldn't want to put an STi one on as it is a UK. The wheels are 18" Radius R3.

Mega stream, it's an STi6 spoiler, The pics not very clear so you can't see the trademark lip at the back that the 5 doesn't have.

Tone, nice one! Hope to see you there. Were gonna need a Grandstand for all the spectators!
I've just fitted lowered springs 35mm. Supplied & fitted at Jap Innovations in Oldham. I've yet to fit new dampers. But 6pots are next on the list.

Cheers

Rich

Cheers for that Rich. Jap Inovations are just up the motorway so i'll give 'em a call. Just out of interest do you know who they are made by and how much were they supplied and fitted? (Too many damm questions )

It does look the bo!!ox

Tony.

Cheers Tone,

Can't remember the make now, though they did tell me. They were £144.00 + fitting. Don't know how much fitting was as I had the cam belt done and lightened pulleys fitted at the same time.

probably couple of hours, so around £50 I would guess. I think they've got a set in stock too!

Cheers, and thanks for the compliments.

One word, STUNNIN'

That's exactly how I want my scooby to look (when I finally get one!) A few people on here had some reservations about lowering it 35mm with 18's because of the diff under the car (I think it's the diff? You know, that metal box bit that sticks out underneath).

How have you found it over speed humps?

Red face

Rich,

An inspiration to us all! Really is unbelievable what you can do with some choice mods. Where did you get the spoiler from?

I will put by b4 after pics up soon, once i've added a few more bits! When you look at it now, you cant justify selling it. It really does look good. Esp the scoops, will have to get some!

HAve you changed your back seat out? You probably had the same prob as me with the STi interior?

Thanks for the kind words folks

No, Craft, it's not a new car! LOL My credit card just glows in the dark now!

Beef, not had the joy of a speed hump yet, tend to avoid them where poss. May have to invest in a diff guard.

Mark,

Hi, long time no speak, I swapped the entire interior for a MY00 one, that crappy red and grey WRX interior didn't match at all. The silver and grey now looks a treat.

Cheers
Rich
