LOVING IT!!!

BUT that isn`t an Ironing board, if you remove it the back end will get light, very light.
I`d leave it on or colour code it, I`m not a fan of the de-spoilered look.

Me I`d leave it as is outside, but FMIC and a subtle splitter.

Wow, lovely looking impreza mate. Defo agree with the previous post that a front splitter will finish it of nicely.

Cheers lads, iv ordered a splitter just waiting on it coming!!! I'm not to sure about the rear spoiler iv got hold of a spare boot so I'm going to try that on if I'm not keen I can put my old boot back on, it's a trail and error!....

Cos yours doesn`t go anywhere at all.

P88SOW

Update,
Received my p1 splitter back from the spray shop this afternoon, picked it up after work and had to get it fitted straight away.

That is awesome now, me I`d not change a thing!!

P88SOW

Thanks mate, im wanting new wheels im not keen on those ones, i was thinking the rota fighters, or and lose the ambers for the clears.

Jimbob

iTrader: (13)

Clear repeaters yeah that would match, but I love those wheels.

Me I`d be looking for a front mount and getting it up in the bhp/torque figures and done.

Nice Classic......

P88SOW

Thanks mate :-)

I like the wheels, they look really wide so im assuming they are 8j?

Were you able to fit these wheels with standard suspension struts? or with them being wide were coilovers needed?

P88SOW

im not keen on the wheels the 18 x 7.5j, the wheels catch with standard suspension so i fitted coilovers with adjustable camber.

Baker

Not looking good for me then, I have some 19' Oz wheels that are 8j wide. No doubt they will catch the standard suspension struts.

P88SOW

im looking at getting rid of these wheels and going for 18 x 8j i think 19 x 8 will catch on standard struts mine did with the wheels that are on it now.

Baker

Coilovers or maybe even some decent spacer might solve the problem for me then. I havent even tried to put the wheels on (have no tyres on them at present)

What wheels you planning on going for next?

Looks good take it the face lift was done by one of the previous 2 uk owners?
One thing I will point out is that P1 rear light clusters are the same as the ones you have on, so buying some wont change a thing, you need the STI rear light clusters if you want the red/transparent look
Wheel wise, 17's are best on a classic, 18's can rub especially if lowered, 19's will just be too harsh and you will need the arches rolling/modifying (it will also slow your car down!) and cost you a fortune in tyres

cheers Tony, I'm new to the scooby game, I'm after the sti lights for the rear iv noticed the P1 are the same. I'm thinking of going for some 17 x 8 enkei nt03m wheels for mine, the face lift was done over japan my friend never did it. I had it on the ramp last night and noticed it's got a bottom H brace.

that looks a lot better mate , them wheel's look mint on it

P88SOW

Thanks mate, it will look better when it's got clears all round and my sti rear lights I won eBay turn up!.

Don`t forget some Chrome covered indicator bulbs for the rears and fronts.
Stops the clear lights looking orange when not on, cleans them up nicely, esp when using crystal clear indicators and repeater`s.

Only thing I`d do is add some Crystal fogs, not everyone likes the fogs in place, but I do.
But love the car!!
