My "new" toy - STi4
 

I learnt to drive late (about 24) and since have always had the sensible car - the tow car / fit everything in the world in the back car. Now we have a double cab pick-up, I finally get a fun car...

380bhp STi4 and I *love* it. About time I got to have fun - 'girls just wanna' after all. :luxhello:

Obviously I have the power (don't really need anymore to be honest) so I am going to concentrate on making it look better. First off sort out the STi stickers which have missing letters :rolleyes: Then going to improve the engine bay - needs the manifold repainting for a start and the cover over the top of the pulleys and starter (don't know what it is called?) needs renewing. But also thinking of a nice new slam panel, maybe battery cover (although I dont want anything chrome). Anyone know where you get the carbon slam panels? Other possible extras include a catch can (needs one anyway) and will probably slowly replace all the vac hose and samco to the same colour.

Anyway, here are some pics after a recent valet from Pro-Valeting (view my scooby for tech specs). I could really get in to taking photos of my car!

Engine bay pic (not taken by me but shows how it is now and how it needs some work):

These are the carbon slam panels I like:

Anyone know of these are still available somewhere? Will PM the guy that started the groupbuy back in 2004 :freak3:

Very very nice. Looks like a lot of work has gone into that!

You like standing close to it when taking pictures though. Give yourself and bit of distance and get some more up :thumb:

Always wanted one in black... I'm jealous!
