18" wheels, then the Prodrive springs when they are available. When you get these done make sure you get the anti-lift kit and anti roll bar as well as poly bushes and a full geom setup. I have been in a STi7 that had this done and the cars handling was unbelievable.

you lucky gits.

i'm out in hong kong and have been wondering how to get the ppp here. i've emailed prodrive to see if they have any agents out here but have had no reply after 3 days.

i'm not putting my STi8 through its paces but i'm kind of use to the standard STi power now and the umph has slightly gone...so would looooooooooooooooooooove to get the ppp

Slacker,

If you are out in Hong Kong then you will have the twin scroll turbo. The PPP is not for the twin scroll. AFAIK.
