Sourcing parts for MY08 hatch..
Hey all, ive been a member on here for a few months now and the majority of the time I simply read through threads to try and better my knowledge within the subaru world. (not doing much posting)
I have an MY08 hatchback STI and I love it to pieces, in the 6 months i have owned the car I have only put a HT Autos splitter on the front end.
Summer is now here (although the weather doesnt show it) and im getting myself involved with a few shows this year including JAE.
Therefore I have saved a little cash for upgrades, but from looking on here it seems that second hand upgrades are hard to come by the hatches.
I have been recomended to visit a few specialist subaru websites but there isnt much available for the hatch.
So my main question.. Where should I be looking for specific upgraded parts? Performance wise, but also aesthetically wise. Is there a company that does more for the MY08 hatches in particular?
Or some of you may find this silly but what should I be looking for whilst browsing the forum.. I see a lot of information about 'classic' and 'newage'
What would my car come under?
Any information would be much appreciated! Thanks all!
