Default Just joined so hello to everyone!!

Hi,

Brand new on here, so thought I'd quickly introduce myself.

My name is Robin, I'm 27, live in Bristol, and own an MY93 WRX import. It is red with rally graphics, lexus rear lights, exhaust etc etc.

My new hobby is upsetting M3 drivers!

Anyway hope to meet some of you around the forum,

Rob.

Thanks for the replies people.

Shame I didn't know about the lexus light situation, I'd have kept 'em quiet! So what's the story behind them, I got the original lights off the previous owner in a box, so they could be reinstalled, I don't want to lose any friends over 'em!!

Oh and my wheels are white (new spray job so nice and clean).

Lexus lights are for lexus'. Get yourself a set of STI ones which look much better.

Good point, Leon, I brought the motor as it is, and hadn't really given much thought to the different lights on the back until I found a receipt for them i with thew log book.
Oh, and I didn't exactly buy the car, straight swap for my old 4x4 pajero thing! thought that was pretty good going since there are about a thousand pajeros for sale wherever one looks!
Thanks for the advice on the STI lights I will bear this in mind when I come to shelling out some doe on her, at the moment most my dosh is going on the kids and missus, due to the time of year!

Hi guys

My wheels do look nice as they look like new, but they do have a big prob...

Despite the new white spray job they are standard. And that means they are only 15"

16's would be a nice compromise (price, performance & appearance) so I may have to sort something out at some point!

Won't be long for the pics alloy, I'll pm you and let you know when they're on

As for mods....plan to upgrade the exhaust to full decat 1st, as I think it's running a tad rich at the mo on the chip the previous owner had installed. Then when I can afford it I'll be looking to get a proper remap done. v3/4 sti heads would be nice, but the only ones I found so far had full reco port/polish big steel billet cams, the stuff my dreams are made of, but my current bank balance can't afford to get in that deep quite yet!!
