  1. really, I hate those wheels well fitted the boost gauge had my first problem with the car this week my front right calliper was heavy smoking after a 10 mile drive turned out 3 of the 4 pistons were seized took me nearly 3 hours to get them sorted worst part was burning my hand on the calliper so will be saving up to buy the sti brembo brakes
  2. not much plans as skint atm lol just bought my pod mount for the boost gauge just gotta get a boost gauge now any recommendations which one
  3. finally got my new car and well happy
  4. cheers guys as I haven't got the car yet as its in the body shop getting bumper fixed i cant tell you much more about the car it might have a standard boost gauge but i am planning on fitting boost and oil temp in a pod pillar i used to own an mr2 which was serviced every 6 months so the wrx will get the same treatment so with me only doing short journeys its best to warm up the car and put a load on the electrical system ie put my lights on?
  5. Yeah mine is a hawk tbh most of the time my car will only be doing around 8 miles a day as its only 4 miles to my work lol
