Having said that I won't be modding it I've now decided that as well as the obligatory de-tangoing I'd like to replace the headlights with the STi ones and the standard wheels with some nice anthracite ones.

I can't decide whether to colour code the side strips as well :wonder: And maybe tint the windows.

And on and on and on...... :D

nice as for colour coding the side strips easyier and cheaper heat tem up and peel them off will look sweet Greig

Oooooooh thats nice Sal :thumb:

The modding bug has bitten already hehehehe

Here's a pick of my sis in laws car that i was telling you about. Its a Sport with Anthracite wheels. Pic isn't great ;)

My bugeye engine has just let go.

looking at a 2.5 lump from David@API so it can handle 400/400.

Afraid the 361/322 i had was to much.

new engine, new look also i think. probably remove the carbon and go bit more stealth/sleeper

Where not considering getting rid Dave. I vaguely recall a thread where you were looking for interest in you carbon goodies.

Still, it is a nice car, and definately the best shape/colour:thumb:

Carbon goodies for sale in sale section now. under "carbon" :D

was thinking of getting rid but by the time i put in a new/second hand engine i will lose so much for it. might aswell build a bullet proof engine and keep her(till the gearbox breaks lol)

best colour indeed

Sorry to hear about your engine Dave, any idea whats gone wrong? :confused:

But then you throw in a 6-speed box with a carbon propshaft:thumb:

I assume the engine rebuild will include an exedy clutch and lightweight flywheel. I'd have though an API 2.5 litre block would have been good for 450/450 as well:Whatever_

How mine was at the end of 2008:

But with a whole host of new exterior bits to be added for 2009!

S!

bottom end has gone Matty.

yeah friction plate and flywheel will be done also. keeping conservative figures for now until the box goes then its a case of upgrading box and bigger turbo. 450/450 but thats a distant dream as i need to find the money for the engine first.

Nice lights:D

^^ Still to have a picture taken with the new lights fitted ;) :thumb:

When I look closer I can see that these have just had the chrome stuff removed. Get on with it then:norty:

anthracite ones. :D[/QUOTE]

:( sorry to hear that mate.
I was starting to wonder how long you'd manage to keep going on standard internals with that sort of power so I guess that answers my question.
Does this mean we won't be seeing you for a while until you get the rebuild done? What sort of timescale do you think you'll be looking at?

:eek: Was that 361/322 on standard WRX internals, how long did that keep going for:norty:

:lol1: yeah, 92000miles on engine to :lol1:

lasted about 7/8 months 12000 miles ish

Giles the turn round is quick, 10-21 days i think. Just need to get money together :D got a spare £10 to start me off lol

Hopefully be sorted by may

Hmmm:norty: , 48000mile WRX engine plus a bonus for going to Afghanistan = :D

I'm sure the wife and kids won't mind not having the holiday after all:rolleyes:

MY BUG WAGON (FOR SALE NOW):) Picasa Web Albums - lauras - sti wagon 2001

What do you do? nice tax cut out there;)

looking forward to doing mine up but wrong time of year

I'm in the Air Force, so no tax break, but an Ops Allowance.

Already planning the re-map, but could stretch to a second-hand VF34/35 and a three port. I've got a decat up-pipe, larger TMIC and GGR induction sat in the garage waiting to go in. Would just need some pink injectors and could see closer to 330 than I was planning:idea:

Argh your a crab then ;)

im in the Navy, fleet air arm. work on the lynx

With that spec you will be seeing around the 320/310 figure mate.
35 is cheaper but the 34 seems to make more power. you dont really need the induction kit either, high flow filter will see you upto 380. sell it and it will pay for the 3 port :D

:Whatever_

I know I don't need the induction kit, but I've got the kit, the heat shielding and the bug for the noise of induction kits. :freak3: I've already got the STi panel filter in there now.

Without the turbo I'd be stretching it to get 290, but I'm not planning a rebuild so the extra would do fine. The option is a TD05, but I understand they a little more laggy and I've only seen one of Andy Forrests TD04 hybrids going second hand so that isn't really an option:confused:

Induction kits sound great mate agreed :thumb:

you will need to change the turbo for 300 club and id go 34 if you can afford the extra. td05 16g will give around the same figures and isnt laggy plus it can be rebuilt

I thought the VFs spooled up quicker but the TD05s where stronger, but a little more laggy.:confused:

Minimum I expected for the 300club was turbo, fuel pump, injectors and 3-port or electronic boost controller so no shockers there:freak3:

Lovely cars people!

Here are a few that I took of my Prodrive Style when it was -7 last week....brrrrrrrrrrr!

The B&W one is used for my desktop :)

Loving that mate. looks super clean,

loving the snow/frost reflections in the paintwork:thumb:

Thanks mate. As a rule im a lousy photographer so was quite pleased how they came out!

All the best.

I really need some STi headlights for mine, who has done the conversion here? Any pitfalls? What was the cost?

I'm loving the anthracite wheels on sharmanator and Ady's sister's cars :thumb:
