Thanks for the comments, car has gone through some transformation. The facelift was a relatively easy conversion.
The engine was what I had troubled with most, it's on it's 3rd engine, and 7th different turbo
I had original 2.0 wrx which went pop
Then a forged 2.0 which also went
My current 2.1 built from engine tuner hasn't missed a beat
This car had run a TD04, TD05 18G, VF34, MD321T, MD321V
I'm currently back on my TD04 until my rotated setup is fitted
I have a precision billet 5831 going on, hopefully by end of April

I really want to hate white wheels after I got fed up with forever cleaning them on my old car.

But they just look so damn good on yours!

^ lol

white wheels are a pain, especially in the weather. as soon as you drive it even locally, they're dirty again
was thinking to refurb the alloys black, but white does look good when clean

No...stick with white, the rewards far out weigh negatives. With the better weather coming and shows starting up you'll be glade you did.
