thanks guys I cant wait to start changing things, I want clear side repeaters and front indicators, and maybe STI rear clusters
The guy I bought it off told me its running an STI turbo, and it does appear to look different to other cars I looked at...as well as going a fair bit faster as well! How do I tell for sure which turbo I have? Is the type stamped on anywhere viewable??

The Turbo casing will have a metal plate stamped on it and/or writing with something like IHI VFxx e.g mine says IHI VF28 which were found on STi/STi Type RA's
