Got my 94 WRX and its silver. Do clear indicators look good on a silver car?. Also got the standard spoiler at the minute trying to decide between the STi5 Spoiler or one slightly bigger than what I have now (dont know the model).
Anyone got any pics, suggestions etc or other mod ideas. Already got the exhaust and strut braces.

One more thing under the bonnet next to the intercooler i have another dipstick whats that for?. Seems to go to the turbo.

Cheers Dave

Clear indicators look cool on a silver car. Get clear bulbs that flash orange though

dipstick is for Gearbox oil

The gearbox oil goes into the dipstick hole-not so easy but a bit of plastic tubing that will go into the hole with a funnel will help. Be careful that the plastic tube doesn't fall into the gearbox of course.

Thanks I will get on it later. Any specific type of oil to go in or will just normal gear oil do the job?

Still a bit more to do yet Colour coded skirts, new suspension and some body work needs a tidy, but I'll get there Hopefully before I have to sell a kidney.

Hmmmmm......from where I am sitting it looks to me as though that motor suffers from quite severe boost spikes.

Am I right?
