But I didnt like it in the end next up was to remove the blue mud flaps and to add the lowering springs just to give it a better look,
but it has took me by surprise how much better it feels running the HKS Springs over the Std STi setup

Very nice! How are the jdm spats different? Was the lights on the green scooby tinted with film?

Stunning

HI blackvenom the headlights on my Brother's Classic were also flyeyed with black tint where as I used Grey on mine

The JDM Spats if you look on the black one below just after the front wheel and rear wheel

And cheers guys for your positive comments least I'm doing something right

Thanks! For that! Yes I totally forgot about thoses.

Very tidy mate:thumb:

Very very nice motor mate.

Love it :thumb:

Saw the first picture and thought it would look so much better without the mudflaps and calipers and was pleasantly suprised as I worked down the thread!

Very very nice!

Looks good
 

Hi I have had my V5 Sti for the last 7 years. I was thinking of fitting lowering springs like you as it sits a little high. I have 18" wheels but dont want the ride to be any harder than on the standard springs.

How have you found it and are you running 17 or 18" rims?

PS JGM mapped mine 379.3bhp on Syvecs and SC40!

I'm running 17" s the ride has got a little more harder but the overall handling has improved so much and really gives more confidence on the twisty bits

That is lovely mate, really want to buy a classic next everyone i see gives me inspiration, just nice to some that haven't been modded by boy racers nowa days

Nice classic. Love that colour

Little more of an update to add to my Baby


New Cusco Coilovers
New OZ Alloys
Front windows lightly tinted

The next update I hope to of added Newage STI Seats, new front splitter and with any luck FMIC

Lovely car, I did prefer it on the P1 rims though.

Looks sweet mate, love the new OZ rims goes really well.

Very nice mate. Allways nice to see a clean classic

Looks good.
I'd remove that horrible rear fog and have it in the rear cluster.

Thanks folks glad you like how she is coming along
