My UK Turbo 2000
Picked up this beauty for a bargain price a few weeks back...
It had some 18's on it which were looking a bit tired so I replaced them with some 16" Terzo rims I got off here for muchos cheapness...
They were silver so a quick blow over with gold paint
Then fitted
The clutch was slipping really bad so got that changed with a new unit off AS Performance on here, Moneys worth had been had from the old unit
Was suffering from a pretty bad misfire so a set of NGK Iridium X's later and she's running sweet again
After a few weeks I've decided the wheels look too small so I've got some ST2's on the way which I've got booked in to be professionally sprayed next week in gold so I will keep this thread updated.

Looking good, but I agree with the gold wheels comments. I had some ST2s on my old WRX, and think it looked pretty decent in regulation silver wheel colour:

Arches are very good, I just think silver wheels on a silver car don't do them any justice and I don't like dark coloured wheels either so that's why I think gold is a good choice and I like it
Should look something like this when done...

Yeah the first guy who viewed it bought it. well technically it's still mine because he's only paid a deposit... To be honest I put it up for sale because I seen a blobeye come up for sale that I wanted but the guy sold the blobeye before I could get to him so I need to find a blob now quick! lol
I will miss it when it goes, Never gave me any problems but onwards and upwards I suppose.
