Its WR Blue, the only reason Ive got the carpet is the standard lining in the boot is probably the worst I've ever seen, its paper thin! ordered it from Scooby parts only £40 money well spent me thinks.

No idea but aiming for road driveability and not just high figures. Looking for early boost and loads of torque but would like to get 280 real bhp and similar torque.

Oh forgot about the sti rear lights too! Best mod yet!

Oh and aprt from eibach suspension can return the car to standard in a day or two should I decide to sell. Car also still looks standard apart from tints.

My fave pic right now but without the brakes
