WRX - over the past two weekends I half Mother's 3 stepped the car with a Rockwell Polish/Buffer I got from Supercheap. I say half because I didn't have space to touch the passenger side, but I did claybar then use a Fireball nano coat type thing
Here is the 3 stepped side:

Taken on my iPhone with a damaged camera lens, should have taken my DSLR with me.
I think most of the flack comes from the narrow body shaped compared to their STI counter parts.. Get some nice 18's to fill the guards, add a dash of low and you've got a great looking car IMO plus they're no slouch and probably the most economical WRX
Hey team,
Do we have anyone who can get Whiteline products for a bit cheaper than BNT/Autolign?
Wanting to get some camber bolts for my Startlet, but BNT want to charge me $85 which seems excessive
In that case, i'd just go for custom made axel back exhaust, slap in a centre muffler to keep noise down and you'll be golden. Probably be cheaper to get something made local as opposed to getting something shipped from NZ.
Have your replaced the hard rubber hoses that connect to the intercooler with silicone? Apparently that makes a nice wee difference for not a lot of $$
Replaced the passenger side coils whilst trying to diagnose an awful cutting issue that happens after a few good pulls:
Took it for a post test and so far so good! (I obeyed the speed limits incase you question )
Just a thought, would it be worth running this in conjunction with Flat-Nats? As a South Islander, I can't justify 2x trips up North sadly Even if I fly up.
I haven't installed the bushes yet as I don't have a means of getting under the car, however the short shift is great! Has reduced the throw a good amount.
I felt that way after I installed my "fancy" new speakers, only to find they sound like hollow crap and then for a few days later one side stopped working because a cable manged to pry loose. HOWEVER, I'm glad I got it done, some tuning with the headunit and they're alright.
Ordered me a Kartboy Short Shifter and shifter bushes from Rallysport Direct:

Partsouq order arrived.. turns out I orderd a coil for a LS400.. F*********K stupid me.
RE003's are back on which is great! Will be great to give them a whirl soon!
can't remember if I mentioned this.. but I scored some damper adjustable STi Pink struts, meant to be factory off the S203's. Google says they could be "Tuned by Arai" I'm hoping the struts on the softest settings are similar to the STI red struts for around town and then I can tighten them up for the spirited driving.
Bank account doesn't like me this month.. oops!
