    I just love the way it looks just the rear windows tinted (JDM bro) 😉 If you can try before you buy that's great I really hate doing jobs twice because I'm unhappy how it's looks

    Mine came with limo tint in the rear three windows it's handy because none can see in the boot I can still see out well also. But I would say go for what you think looks best 😊 Im used to driving pick ups and you just learn where the back is I mean why do they call the bumpers. 😂
  3. JamesJDMwagon
    Yeah but on the other hand I don't mind because the price is good I just get another set throw the old ones in the bin. I used to have blueprint ones they just try and catch fire (smoke bellowing out the arches). I like to change brake pads often so nothing gets a chance to rust up and keeps them wearing level and discs don't get damaged as much. brake pads go hard once they've seen too many heat cycles then they eat your discs
  4. JamesJDMwagon
    Think I paid 70 but there's loads of options if you want pads aswell (mtec discs and can come with mintex pads)
  5. JamesJDMwagon
    1200 then 2000 grit wet and dry use wet until completely smooth clean them then spray clear coat and finally polish with cutting compound then wax or alternatively just use G3 and a electric buffer. 1st one is for showroom condition 2nd is quick and easy.

    I opted for the cheep option after I cracked a set of old ebc discs (got too thin) and bought myself some mtec drilled and grooved ones from eBay. Had them six months and I have to say they are great I drive very fast often braking from well over 100mph. I do chew a lot of pads up quickly though 😅. Also I used racing fluids

    Another day working on the scoob , it's always got one leg in the air lately 😅

    Your right it sounds great I was standing just after the flint wall and ask the marshal if I could get closer he said no but we had a good chat about the car after it flu bye . I always embarrass my girlfriend by asking random people things I shouldn't but some times it pays off 😊

    I remember seeing that thing at goodwood last year it's a beast! It's all wire tucked under the bonnet looks awesome. 😀
  10. JamesJDMwagon
    Fitted a set of sti rear lights and new crystal side lights
  11. JamesJDMwagon
    Yes tried there and even eBay Japan seems they might be a forester item. I can't even find the company (e'sam)
  12. JamesJDMwagon
    Any ideas?
  13. JamesJDMwagon
    Had enough of my plastic Subaru dump valve so fitted a shing new and a viper performance reducer

    So on my car (94 turbo wagon) I have folding electric wing mirrors with ied indicators. The problem is on is smashed. It's been like that since I bought the car and I can't find a replacement. Any ideas? Anyone seen these before?
  15. JamesJDMwagon
    And it's more likely a problem with the rear as that's where the power goes.
  16. JamesJDMwagon
    Wheel bearings all good?
  17. JamesJDMwagon
    Could also be a the gearbox bearings themselves if you're particularly unlucky.
  18. JamesJDMwagon
    Have the rear wheels taken a knock? That would mess the thurst angle up. Could be a few things I.e. Collapsed bushes or suspension, brakes, anything drive line related really.
  19. JamesJDMwagon
    Louder is faster ;) on a serious not that whole back pressure on n/a is good for torque thing is only true in the lower revs like below 2k. I think engine masters on YouTube did an in depth dyno test on it. And generally removing a cat frees up about 10-15 Bhp on a 1.6 well at least it did on my old type r engine rover (highly modified straight piped)
  20. JamesJDMwagon
    Wow never knew that I saw one on EBay the other day if you need one? I might have a spare too from when I scraped my saloon.
  21. JamesJDMwagon
    Haha yes it's very fancy I have you know ;)
  22. JamesJDMwagon
    You could Take the cat out that's good for a few ponies other then that it starts to get expensive (turbo/supercharger) . Or paint the brake calipers red? 😉
  23. JamesJDMwagon
    I find silver cars hard to choose colours for I went with a light gold but really like the bronze that comes on some rays wheels
  24. JamesJDMwagon
    A few interior mod new gear knob carbon and red gaiter and a new steering wheel, needs a hover tho!
  25. JamesJDMwagon
    Oil preasure switches are only £10 chuck one in. My friends civic type r did the same thing just flickers. So I put a new one in and a new pcv (coming Honda problem) and all was sorted 😊 Hope it's the switch
