Do you get plenty of cold air to the filter or are you going to modify the bonnett.

well after using car with my gauges in the dash vents I just did not like how they was, they seamed a bit low, you had to look down to look at them, so I have moved them up to eye level,much happier with them now and I originally bought a single din radio to fit them their so I get to use the new radio as well now, not that I have it on much anyway unless mrs is in with me. what you think.

What pod is that you have used for the boost gauge?

 

Thanks

Its the pod that you get with the prosport gauge.i just cut a hole in surround big enough to get base plate holes through then bonded the plate on inside so it looks tidy

so my mot is up next month and I have no cats on car,so I thought hmm could be a problem.So I thought  I would look on net to find a cheap second hand cat just to put on for mot then would take it back off.I managed to find one at a dirt cheap price,click to buy it and to have it delivered to argos cortonwood,so I waited,a week went by I though taking a long time to arrive, so had a look on my eBay,it said was ready to pick up on the 12th jan order processing wait for code to go pick it up,12th went so had another look still same,so emailed the guy and he sent me the tracking info that said it had been delivered to argos cortonwwod on the 11th and signed for.So we both ask eBay to see what was happening with it,well eBay has just emailed to say they have refunded me as argos can not find my order .So what I am saying is,how the hell can they loose a cat pipe,its not a small envelope,it can not be that hard to find can it,so as you can guess am a bit p*** off .so anyone have a cat sitting in man cave I could borrow a couple days for mot when time comes 

[aucky]

Are you fitting flush or get riser kit as I think it looks better slightly raised and angled. May get a kit for mine.

Agree and £167 is a lot to pay. If u make one I might be interested in a copy. I will cover mine in black to match grill etc.

Same size as original mate.but its about twice as thick so it make it feel a bit bigger then original,its alcantara so much nice when your driving.

Test fitted my wheels today to get a mesurment for how big arch extensions i need.now i can order arch's and take the wheels for powder coat.not decided on colour yet but it will either be gold or burnt copper.will decided when I see the colour at side car [emoji6]

Had a test fit of the Brembo brakes n godspeed disks today.thought i was going to be lucky and they would fit with original wrx alloys till i get the new wheels powder coated,but needed 9mm spacers to give about 2mm clearance spoke to calliper so dont look like their going on just yet,gives me time to finish painting rear brembos and godspeed disk.so will just wait and fit all together😕

Did you fit the vents at the front or is that photoshop as well? Also wheels look good be cool to see them on the car.

I wondered if anyone would notice them [emoji6] no not fitted mate just photoshop.you could fit them though easy enough,i had a look at some the other week and they look to just clip in on the sti bumper,if they wouldnt clip on you could just bond them on with tiger seal.putting some on mine once i get to them on my list stuff to do on car.

[Beags]

They get brittle as looked to take mine out and started cracking. So worth going new unle§s as you saw bond them.
