Default Some photos of my 99 Turbo2000

Thought i would share a few Pictures of my pride and joy.

I bought the car back in 2009 on 39k miles and it was more or less standard apart from a bailey d/v , prodrive silencer and some 18" mg wheels.



Over the last three and a half years the car has changed a fair bit. I fitted a VF34 turbo incl supporting mods and with a little bit of JGM magic it produced 332bhp/330lbft. It didnt take long for the standard clutch and 3rd gear to buckle under the increase in torque, so it was time to bite the bullet and fit a STI7 6speed box and pink exedy clutch.

Along with the running gear mods wear some cosmetic changes, BC coilovers 2 pot rear brembo brakes , 330mm ksport brakes , p1 wheels etc.







A few of you might be interested in this mod

And Finally a short video me and a few friends threw together

I thought you guys would like that, it was a little tricky to get the gauges to sit in the dash properly. you have to trim down the brackets to get them to sit nicely and the classic surround obscures part of the rev counter.

To get them working was quite easy, i used plugs with a bit of loom from an sti7 and spliced the wires into the classic loom. I found a pin out list for both cars to match the correct circuits up and with a little bit of trial and error they are fully functional. All of this was done with help from Auto_sparky_wrx

What make/model are the guages on your A pillar?

Also, did you just change the back lights on the speedo cluster to white bulbs or is it more complicated than that?

Cheers

Looks lovely after your mods, so much better with those wheels instead of the ones in the first picture.

They are both pro sport gauges, top one being mechanical boost and the lower is a stepper oil temp.

The sti clocks were originally green, to change the colour you have to remove the film from the back of the faces.......was an nightmare of a job ! After this i removed the standard bulbs and installed lots of L.E.D's and added some coloured film behind the redline, sti logo and the water temp.

please do a guide for the dials!!
I will have a look through my notes if i can find them and try to start writing one, i did this mod last summer so im not sure if i still have all the info to hand
