Bit of a life goal moment this, so will be with me for the long haul. Red accents is the plan cosmetically. First up is underseal, rear fog into cluster, oil and filter change, pre mot then mot. After that it’s register with DVLA then we’re off! Already booked in for a remap in late August then after that, it’s save to spend time. New rubber (on Jap budgets currently), powder coat wheels, roof and skirt vortex’s, gauges, DAB double DIN with apple car play, white line arb kit, engine dress up, the list goes on 😉 Nice I lookfoward to seeing more as it progresses 🙂 ,,, when’s the eta ?

I went through a chap called Ryan at Club Japan Imports. He is excellent and very knowledgable. If you message him through his Facebook page he responds very quickly normally. If you have specific requirements he will look for you and give you some options. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

savage bulldogs Posted July 24, 2018 Share Posted July 24, 2018 Got home early today and im taking the v1sti to a local retro meet tomorrow evening, so seeing as there was a bit of cloud cover i thought it would be rude not to wash n wax the scoobs Been enjoying the refinement of the bug sti whilst running it in lately 😎 So haven't driven the v1 for a week or so but soon as i hopped back into the v1sti, i remembered why she's a keeper . Proppa drivers car and she's a bit of a animal in comparison 😊 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great grip in the snow over winter, in the wet and dry I can't tell any difference from my Dunlop Sport Maxx XL's. Possibly a little softer ride, but that could be the effect of going up a size in tyres. Fills the wheel arch nicely now. 😁 Wearing pretty good too. 👍 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
