    With enough interest I am more than happy to import you guys some 18x9.5 20p 5x100, however much research has gone into the fitment of subarus with brembo's in the states and the best fitment has been proven to be 18x9.5 38p. 20p would be overkill!

    38p can be seen here:

    What colours would you guys be interested in?

    probably bronze how much for a set will have to talk to the boss lady so i can give her a figure as long as the 38 p fit with out spacers I would be in but agian depends on price

    That's why you go with a lower offset.. takes away the need for a spacer. eg if you have a wheel with 30p offset and you use a 5mm spacer, then get a wheel with a 25p offset. Same effect, no need for a spacer.

    got ya I see your asking about 20p wheels guessing they should fit mine then

    the 8.5 wide wheels look like my volk TE37s that are on my car already

    Yeah, just need some low offset and some stretched rubber. Not overly stretched mind you, just a little.

    what do I need to achieve this look Scooby gonna sell the TE's if I can make my car look like this ie wheels size and fitment issues blah blah blah any ideas

    got it back from tuners at 11psi running 220kw on the dyno at run in....tuners said once i come back after run in im looking at 260kw at 19-21psi....and they added that E85 fuel will take it to about the 300kw mark.

    It was wet when i drove it back home,so as soon as it hit boost i lost the rear end each time ;D...cant wait for the dry to see if it still bakes it up at 11psi, cause that will meen 20psi will be uncontrollable so ill have to convert back to AWD to get traction...as most of you knew anyway lol :P

    awesome cant wait to see it

    Stock offset for Spec C is +53. Good luck finding an aftermarket wheel 5x100 with that offset that clears the Brembos. Rays have charts on their website which indicate which offsets in which model will clear the STi Brembos.

    Not sure, but I'm assuming that sold-to-public Spec C numbers reflect the homologation requirements put out by the FIA for that year.

    Thanks for that Simon,

    Will check out the charts on the Rays site.

    Kind of lost me with the sold to public/homologation bit, not yet very familiar with these terms.

    But thanks all the same!

    I have the 17x7.5 te37s but there is an 8 or 8.5 that will fit in te37s ce28's there is some for sale on trademe and in the for sale section in here that will fit as well i think

  6. yea its one option but that dude is hard to get work done me and him have been trying to get things done for a while jus conflicting schedules so I'm gonna get all the parts on and then hopefully catch him to do it the other option I looked at was E&H motors for the tuning

  7. yea will see how it goes either way just need it before i put the exhaust on I got ordered at redline going to 3 inch is bound to make the boost go up so keeping it under 20 is sensible for longevity reasons for now

    Ya cant on the turbosmart ones cos they have 2 little ports on the side . . . You cant hook up to them . . . . Some boost taps are 3 port . . You can plumb them back in . . . . It doesnt really matter any way

    yep.tru and use new vac hoses to.i found heaps of mine were split or leaking from little holes.andddd looks nicer haha

    let me know how the turbosmart tee is.the atomic on i used was crap. :)

    yea no worries alex will drop you a line thought atomic would have been ok I like to use turbosmart for quality more than anything
  10. im gonna put a turbo smart bosst tee in to my version 7 i know its been covered before but just a few tips would be cool... do i keep the brass pill in the line or remove it? the stock lines look a little thin what size sillicone hose is recommended? how would you suggest to block the hole on the inlet after i remove it? and do i remove both hoses off the standard solenoid or just 1 if so which 1 there is 1 coming in side on and the 1 at a right angle underneath? and do i unplug the solenoid or just leave it plugged in ? thanks heaps for the tips people

    no it has nothing to do with those lateral forces.

    split rail is just a parallel vs series argument when 'feeding' the injectors.

    ok so it wouldnt starve that cylinder so which is better in your opinion funky jus wondering if its worth the effort to split is all and do i need it planning to push the version 7 to its limits with the stock turbo
