set of three JDM stepper gauges from prosport bought today oil pressure , voltage and boost gauge http://rspec.co.uk/b-gauges-b/jdm-stepper-motor-warning

nice motor.mate.
i also prefer them gold wheels.
can't you get a bigger back spoiler then leave it as it is, and ENJOY IT.
.
DRIVE SAFE.

I like the STI rear spoiler as is :D

TBH just cant help myself with modifying LOL
the exterior will not be touched as thats just the way I like it
just the engine bay and interior will be getting worked on and tint the rear window a bit darker

:thumb:

Very nice niz watch you don't get beat by any civic type r's with Vtech yo :D

cheers dave

LOL I had the older ek9 civic type R pull up beside me yesterday
those little civic are fast as fook LOL
neither of us put the foot down tho

still miss the ep3 type R but much happier with the impreza sti :D

Very nice looking blobeye.Jen.

Don't like either set of wheels, what's the leather for, to make it easy to wipe your boyfriends jizz off when he misses your mouth?

:D

:lol::lol::lol:

It looks like bigfoot, are you going off roading?

Cheers jennas :thumb:

:D the fact you dont like the wheels makes me like them even more :lol1:

Hmmm I think I know why when leather was mentioned you started thinking in a queer manner :)

:lol1::D:lol1:

might buy a set of coilovers to lower the car a little bit
the only thing is there is so much speed bumps around aberdeen
and I remember the civic scrapping like hell when I lowered that.

On a serious not get some mud flaps asap.
Those wheels will chuck stones up your doors and chip them to bits

Something like this?

Lovely!

already on it Dan
got a set of nearly new mud flaps from matty @ MB developments which arrived today

the impreza already has mud flaps but the drivers side one is missing and the other three are a bit scabby so glad I got a set from matty :thumb:

any chance of PMing me a rough price for your coilovers Dan as I would be interested
it wouldn't be till the start of march until I was home from Saudi Arabia mate so
there would be plenty of time as I know you are leaving your car until the MOT runs out

as its a 50/50 about going for coilovers :thumb:

Coil overs are height adjustable that's the point

fookin hell that spoilers is massive, you could serve drinks on that :lol1:

I know Dan I am still thinking on getting a set
I contacted myster R about the group buy thats on the forum and asked how long it would take after paying for the coilovers to arrive with me and they said it would be a little while.
if they said like 7 - 10 days I would of bought them there and then but I was not willing to wait weeks for them

You going up in the world, selling your bum to Arabs instead of drunks in the park, so that's how you bought the new wheels then.:D

I wouldn't say going up in the world as Saudi is a sandy sh1t hole of a place :lol1:

The Arabs on the rig site tend to nail the Filipino roomboy " cleaner " :luvlove:
not joking about the roomboy either that really does happen.
my best mate was at one of the land rigs and under the portacabins seen a pile of used rubbers that had been thrown underneath and the thing is there is not a woman in a 50 -100 mile radius LOL

right here is the mods I have so far
