Hi Dim,

Don't replace single dampers, always replace in pairs. I'd advise looking at the KYB dampers on Camskill's website.

kyledim

thank you for the advice, dont suppose you have the linky for the site ? how much should I put aside to cover this ?
cheers

So, a very early STi. Blueprinted block with a closed deck. Quite rare now so leave it unmolested. Just some 4 pots for the front and some under bonnet stuff really, new hoses, headers perhaps and a nice exhaust.

You won't be able to re-map the ECU. You need a change to a Simtek or some other similar mapable ECU.

Welcome mate

kyledim

thank you all for the warm welcome !!,
my main plan is to turn it back to standard....... used to have a honda civic eg with a boosted d16 engine, but I felt like a change so I swapped it or the scoob from I guy in Scotland. When I first had it, there was massive blue mudflaps (ripped em straight off) and it still has this gash twin exahust system I find quite embarrassing !! so if anyone has a full system up for grabs let me know. I also need a new set of rear lca's. Any ideas where I can get these from ?

I use Jap performance parts for a lot of bits. They are up in Gatwick but always spot on with next day delivery and reasonably priced
Any bit you need just give them a shout. www.japperformanceparts.co.uk
