So I thought I should start my build thread and move it from the introductions

2000 Gen 3 RX Manual

Bought it in March and loved it since. It is my 2nd car and a nice upgrade from my old CC Lancer coupe. Exhaust was done at Performance Exhaust Centre at Northmead. Guys were really friendly and did a great job. Highly recommend them.

On the to-do list:
Lower the damn thing
Borla replica headers
JL w3 and XD600
Possibly sway bars and strut brace
JDM HID headlights
If I can find one, a front lip
Possibly get some Legacy rear lights

Interior
Subaru Momo Wheel
Sti Pedals
White HVAC
White LED's in cluster (Makes it look teal)
LED Cabin light
Blue LED in cigarette lighter
Red LED in ignition illumination

Exterior
Spats
4300k number plate lights (blue tinted halogen t10 bulb)
17in MY04 Impreza WRX Wheels (Currently not fitted as need new tires)

Performance
Xforce diff-back exhaust (2 1/4in inlet, 4 in tip)

Sound System
Alpine CDA-9884
JL Audio C2 6in Splits (Front)
JL Audio TR 6in Coaxials (Rear)

Gday Vince,

Lookin good mate.

One thing i will reccomend that you haven't listed, which will change the look of the car more then almost everything you've listed above is new window tint.

Purple window tint = Rubbish.

Cheers,
Shazza

Hahaha yeah true! It still has the Subaru factory option tint lol

Was thinking of just going the legal limit which is 35% I believe?

Will have to wait until August though since im leaving for a family vacation to Japan and USA for all of July

Nice car mate, Love this colour for some reason......

I couldn't guess why... ahaha

How much were the Rims Mate?

I got them for $500 but needed 2 new tyres

[vinceyboy28]

Been awhile since I posted but the rims are finally on

[Ben_20EJT]

the wheels look tops mate, exact same wheels Zach has for his gen3 lib. you need more low asap.

[Morgan]

Looks nice mate.

Lower is a tad and get a front lip and you'll be set

[aekOne]

nice upgrade!

[FR34KO]

wowee. lowerage and you'll have an absolute stunner!

[AussieTemplar]

definitely WAY lower.

[vinceyboy28]

Thanks guys! Lowering is definitely the top thing on my to-do list

[vinceyboy28]

It's been awhile since I posted and i've made a few upgrades

I replaced my caster bushes and got a whiteline anti-lift kit and managed to get a set of king springs (with impreza fronts) from Narellan spares for $165 with struts included so that was a great pickup and a K&N panel filter for $20! Just need to take a photo in the daytime and give her a good clean. I also purchased a RF P2 with the new 300 watt digital amp which is the size of two decks of playing cars next to each other. The thing is tiny and pumps out 300 watts so im stoked especially for the price I got it all for.

Anit-Lift kit


Out with the old...


In with the new!



Struts and air filter


New stance










And some photos I took at Rozelle campus of USYD while I was waiting for my sister (Before I lowered the car)

[Morgan]

Much better

[aekOne]

looks good mate. a well worth while upgrade!

[FR34KO]

hehe does need a good wash looks very nice, and at a bargain price!

-edit, which kings are they? 'low' ?
