Tyres fitted up. Need some tyre shine and the whole car needs a wash. Will take se photos this arvo





I was a bit pissed that my new wheel nuts haven't turned up but they'll be here soon enough

[Morgan]

Good stuff!

[aekOne]

Nice mate!

[Harry88]

Looks good. Keen to see it tomorrow!

[R-Y]

Cheers guys. They much better then the old ones.

Not completely happy with the paint on the rims though. My mate didn't do behind the spokes as he thought u wouldn't be able to see it

Well on a certain angle you can. Will give it another spray with him in the next few weeks.

If I didn't have so much on today I'd through the 4 pots on as we'll with the Avo rotors.

I'd say that'll happen next weekend

[R-Y]

So I installed my 4pots on firday night/saturday morning (well did one side friday, had to many beers and I was nackered after work)







Stocked with how it all come together. I was worried about the clearance between the caliper and the rim (AEK can account for this) but there's at least 5mm so happy days.

Also got some new black D1 eBay spec wheel nuts. Think there alloy and I don't no if I'm happy with them fully yet. Will see how they go for now.

Photos in the daylight.







Also put some brand new teins in my mates wrx. Still have to put the EDFC in but we did that yesty arvo and he had night shift so we run out of time.

[aekOne]

Haha they fit with PLENTY of change!!

Looking good. Are you going to the rims fully painted?

[R-Y]

They're just dirty in that photo, its not painted behind the spokes so might just mask everything off and paint it with a rattle can.

[simon]

Looking good!!!!

[Harry88]

Looks good. Still think the foz needs more low

[Morgan]

Looking awesome, mate!

[SAV84C]

Looking good. With the D1 Spec nuts U'll find the thread on them will eventually wear out if u constantly take them off...

Ive got some black open ended Muteki nuts if you want them?

Or get onto lugshack and get urself some Mcgards

Got the exhaust yesterday. Left the camera at mum and dads with it so no pics and the exhaust will go on the saturday. Ended up going an X force 3" stainless dump (all they had in stock) with a 3" mildsteel mid to an oval sintgle tip muffler.
Cant wait to get it on but Im a little worried the hotdog wont do enough to keep the drone down. If that is the case, Im happy to get a centre muffler put in at the cost of restricting the system a little.
Will chuck some pics up once its on.
On another note, I bought a different sinle tip oval xforce muffler that I was going to use for a custom made mid/diff back section but ended up going the full kit exhaust. Looking to get what I paid for it. So $150. Ill start a FS thread but thought id just chuck it on here first.

Also installed this a few weeks ago and never got around to posting.




Im waiting on my zerosports triple gauge pod to turn up. They send me the wrong one so I had to send it back and its tacking forever to get another one sent back. Doing my head in.

I also got a new Grimmspeed 3 port boost solenoid the other day as well. Im waiting on the tune before i install it.

[R-Y]

Tomorrows job

[Cam.]

Exciting! Use plenty of WD40 on the old junk and don't drive it hard without a tune!

Hope it goes together without any hitches

[R-Y]

Yeah I'll get some on and soak it for an hour or 2. Won't be driving it hard at all until the tune. Hopefully will have one done and sorted by early next month so I can have some fun before the Chrisy holidays start up and the fun police come out.

[R-Y]

All ready for the tune now. Just have to lock in a date with the tuner and do it.

Bolted the exhaust up, went to do it on Saturday. Got the dump on and the cat but then the cat back section wouldn't bolt up. Turned out they sent me the wrx one and it had no chance of fitting. Got the right one on Tuesday and all is good now. All bolted on and sounds the goods. Love it.

Only problem is it fouls on my aftermarket tow bar a bit so need to get some new rubber hangers to drop it about 10mm at the muffler. Will get some pics this weekend.

Also got my zeros ports triple gauge pod in. Will connect the rest of the gauges up in the next 2 weeks.

And also got my grimspeed 3 port boost solenoid. Waiting on Matt to get back to with a date for the tune and I can hook that up and will have super fun happy times after that mad dawgs finished with it haha

[R-Y]

Finally got some photos of the exhaust.









Really happy with it. Not over the top loud but enough to keep me an the misses both satisfied.

Also got my aircon fixed. The compressor had a leak so I ended up gettin a second hand one from the Subaru parts specialist at Cardiff with a 3 month warranty for $270. A lot better then the brand new item which costs $1800. Aircon is nice and chilly now.

[Meadyy8]

After seeing this car in the flesh the other day, and hearing it. Takes this foz to whole new level. Exhaust sounds great.

Only thing it needs to set it off is to get some coilovers under it, and fill that wheel gap.

Top looking car mate.
