I'm surprised you tackled such a difficult job, seeing you only have hand tools.

Or did you get S&J to do it?

Ok, ok. I didn't do it myself.



I bought the center caps. S&J installed them for 700 bucks.



Very worthwhile modification, AAA+++++++ would do it again.

Bargain!

Can't wait to see the difference it makes on the dyno! Feel any better?

Yeah I Was thinking the same thing as Alex.
Changing wheels doesn't really constitute a "build". This is a mod blog. Kinda.

Whateverererer floats his mardigras, Paul.

I'm here for teh lols and advice.

Since I have also performed the STi centre cap conversion, I see myself as an authority on the subject matter.

LOL fair call.
I was honestly just thinking the same thing when I seen your posts.

That said, I shouldn't have a dig at Tom. 99% of Subaru "Build" threads seem to be like this.

Yeah sorry to disappointed you guys, I use this as a way to keep track of mods.

It's not a "build" as such. Until I break my engine, then shit's gonna happen.




I like the BBS's. fork you all. :D

Nothing wrong with the BBS rims.
Only reason to change them is to fit bigger brakes as far as I can see. And, frankly you don't really need too.

I really like the BBS rims. Can you fit small spacers to allow fitment of 4 pots?

I wouldn't think you'd need small spacers, you'd need at least 10 to 15mm spacers I think.

The BBS rims only just fit the 2 pots by a tiny clearance let alone the 4 pots!
