VERY!

With the extra bracing i've fitted, and the stiff sidewalls of my tyres, its quite different! I;m sure Ill get used to it tho....

The springs are -30mm going off the sti website.

[WRXONP]

Yeah I seem to have sorted out the un evennes with my red strut set up . So just looking into other springs to get my desired height yesterday I did my exhaust . Changed rear mufler and re fabricated the rear section of exhaust . . Today did a service . Changed a few bulbs around . Fitted new o2 sensor and plumbed boost controller up better . . . Just need to do my split rails . . Have all the stuff but no time

[johnny5]

change my springs for the 3rd time just waiting on my exhaust thats on order from redline

[nztintin]

I'll just leave this here

[Johnnynz]

Nice^^^crappy job doing that.

What approach are you taking? freeze and Chisel?

[Ninja8)]

should have zeroed the container on a scale and weigh the weight of sound deadening removed..

[nztintin]

will weigh the sound deadening when I'm finished, I've still got the drivers side under seat and foot well to do.

The approach I'm taking is air chisel...... then more air chisel..... then some desolv-it. I'm not too fussed on removing every little piece at the moment, was just passing time

[Ninja8)]

+1 to desolve it... it really gets the left over glue sh!t looking residue off good. Air chisel even!! dam all i used was a decent sized flat head screwdriver and it did the job perfect for me..

update on weight of sound deadening when you have the figure

[WRXONP]

I removed all the sound deadening from my old cefiRo and I had 3 rubbish bags full . . Didn't weight it but was a mad gain

We used liquid Nitrogen. worked a charm. did everything behind the front seats in 3 minutes flat with just a small hammer.

his uni, saw it on his new car thread

I think we are going to try removing the sound deadening with liquid nitrogen instead of dry ice as we can get it for free from uni. Hopefully it won't damage anything. Should be fun

Swapped out HKS adjustable suspension and replaced with as new stock shocks that came in to the country in the boot of an import with adjusties on it.Fitted with super low king springs and it sits just right.Ride is much more comfortable as you would expect but have lost the gokart stiff feel.

Got new WOF and 12 months rego..steering rack boot and exhaust crack welded.

So gave it a good clean and vacuumed out the inside for the first time in a year!

All good and looks and drives like a new car,makes me very happy. ;D :-*

[boon]

Sent it for a WOF. Hoping it comes back OK haha.

Tomorrow - install tuned headers + uppipe (argh!), facelift headlights, facelift grill.
