What have you done to your car today?

[Stoffa]

what flavour? my mate runs those BC ones with the external canisters and loves them.

[Stoffa]

finally put my lip on, its been in the garage for 2 years, I was gonna wait till it was painted but that maybe another 2 years.

Looks good even unpainted stoffa.

I spent all day pulling different bits and pieces off and out of my car to try and find the horrible rattle/squeak that was driving me insane. Turns out it was the simplest thing that I had overlooked (boot latch). I fixed it by sliding a washer in on each side on the bolts holding the latch mechanism in place to make it a tighter lock. Also filled it up with crc which helped too.

On the bright side in the process of pulling every little thing off the rear end of my car I had opportunity to autosol my alloy swaybar links, shiny and gold like new now ;D

Old ecu i believe to be ecutek\'d... Even learningview couldn\'t connect. This new one has been tinkered with, and i\'m going to tinker more. Apparently a v8 tune will happily flash onto it and run... If thats the case, then i have a proven 200kw tune (conservative) sitting kn my laptop, once i change downpipe

glad u like it

i did some little bits of custom flashing done here and there on it (it will respond very well to a turbo back system- i think that is the one that made 207kw@w when i had it on my last testing at torque performance)

very surprising its feeling better than a ecutek one??

(save the tune before u tinker ok - im pretty sure i have the tune saved but just in case lol)

PS. i have the turbo back pipe the car had when was running that ecu if u ever wana get one....

Looks very nice ^^^

Anyway so I just took the stock down pipe off my STi... what a heavy piece of shit... and it has a blanker where

I was expecting to see a pipe for the wastegate!?!? what gives? Seems like the flow will be fucked when you

you have your foot down.

[wrx_lou]

That looks really good black stoffa.

[Marky]

That looks mint.

I love your car, wanted one ever since uh, gran turismo number 1 I guess?

Converted mine to parallel, drove 50kms, realised it sucks and have now swapped it back

you mean the front pipe? what sucked about it? And did you size up to 3 inch? I\'ve stuck with 2.5.

This is why a very good upgrade is a down pipe either a "cobra" or "siamese" type as then the wastegate has a better flow,

[CUDDAS]

clean sheet wof today wouldnt expect anything else & i\'ve clocked just over 9000km\'s this year in it as a semi daily so i think its time to be put back in the shed.

Made it look sexy by giving it a vacuum and wash and polish and blackened the tyres.

[loner]

Wrapped new down pipe. Did it three times and I\'m still not happy with it... also feel like I\'ve had a wrestle with a cactus.

soak the wrap in a bucket of water first. I only use DEI wrap it makes an awesome job

[kwikaus]

finally got around to putting the new rotors and brake pads on the front of the BD, thats taken over two months to do, amazing how much better the brakes work now, wife is now also happy that the car parts are out of the lounge room, now to do the rears.............. and fit all other parts lying around the house..

[Codex]

Lifted rear left to see if why springs would be slapping on that side under load and not the rest

When it was rebuilt mag n turbo reinstalled that spring upside down don\'t have the tools to fix it either

[mattapo]

Whats a frame worth?

I guess after the frame and donor car it would be a reasonably cheap build?

[boon]

I believe its $10k for the whole kit, then you just need a turbo MX5 to stick underneath it.
