Haha, I like these wheels to be honest 👍
-
@Jesse James hopefully this works 😂

@steveuk260 thank you very much mate 👍 Ive added loads of pics to my build thread so won't double post them in here as well 😉

@Jesse James thank you mate 👍 Ive added loads of pics to my build thread if you want to have a look 👀

😂😂 here you go @mattiekane, I even washed it too 😝 Can still be raised or lowered an inch or so either way if needed.
-
And a couple of pics after I gave it a wash tonight 👍 I'm going to let it all bed in for a week or so, then it's going in for a full geo set up. It's set up on the softest setting (which is a surprisingly decent ride) and right in the middle ride height wise, so can still be adjusted an inch or so up or down if needed.

So last night we set about fitting them. It was pretty straight forward except for one seized bolt on the drivers rear. It took about 2 and half hours all in.

Quick update to the thread... picked up a set of hks coilovers on Saturday and managed to get them fitted last night. I'd been on the look out for a set of coilovers and these came up for what I think was a decent price.
-
My sti isn't my daily fortunately so I can get away with it a bit more. I found the standard set up on my sti way pretty stiff to start with, so the coilovers on the softest setting seems pretty similar. It's certainly not a Rolls Royce, but it's no worse a ride than stock. Only done 30 miles so far though, so there's still time to change my mind 👀
-
@stants I had them fitted last night and set them on the softest setting. It's early days, but they don't feel any stiffer than the standard suspension and the ride actually feels a bit nicer.
-
Don't tar us both with the same brush, I don't know what he's on about either 😂

-
I'm assuming you've never seen the inbetweeners then?
-
-
@mattiekane once there on, there on. They ain't coming back off regardless 😂
-
@stants why did he take them off? Just cos they were firm?
-
Does anyone have any experience with HKS coilovers? I'm going to look at and potentially buy a set tomorrow morning, HKS hiper D's I believe. Reading a couple of reviews they are solid and well build but very stiff (which I don't really mind). Any thoughts and experiences welcome 🍻

Fitted my new Bosch aero wipers. Now when I switch my wipers on they clear water from the windscreen. More than I can say for the old ones 💦☔️

@Sirspidey if your after something that vaguely resembles webbie, this one is on plates4less for £294.
-
@GeoffLeggy yes your right. @Aaron Stephen are you sure it is a spec D and not a WRX? Spec D should have brembo brakes and widetrack rear arches (same as sti). Also should have silver enkei multispoke wheels, but yours have been changed for aftermarket so hard to tell. Im not saying 100% but on the face of it, it looks like a WRX.
-
Welcome mate, nice car 👍 @David Wilkinson if it's a spec D should it not have the brembo's a standard? I thought spec D's were sti's with the styling toned down.
-
Yeah it was a good day, really enjoyed it. I'd say subaru's, evo's and r35 gtr's made up well over half the cars in attendance.

I agree 😎 Although @mattiekane sounds awesome, popping and banging all the way home 🏎💥💥💥💨
