Don't wanna p*** the neighbours off so went for the slightly smaller one, still plan to decat it soon, I have also bought STI fog light covers, just waiting for them to come,

What's peoples thoughts on the big PVC mudflaps, ok or over the top?

I'm going to the uk's buggers Subaru breakers later for a hunt about, I'm looking for a genuine sti8 spoiler and bootlid as whichever idiot fitted this spoiler didn't seal it and so it drips in
I may also see if I can find a few other bits but we will see

Nice ride Jeff :) I have always liked the blob eye scooby's, very cool cars and seriously quick

They do have brutal acceleration too 8)
My mates got a stripped out 93 classic WRX (import) which he's currently preparing for track use, its running 330bhp which doesnt sound that impressive but boy does it shift :) Great cars

Cheers Dennis ;)

Changed the plugs today proper s**t job to do but it's done now, went for 0.4mm tip denso iridium plugs as recommended my a selection of scooby owners, got to say the throttle response is much better, also changed the gearbox & diff oil just to make sure everything is done, anyway I will keep it simple, here are the updated photos as promised

Yesterday I stripped the boot of it's carpet and spare wheel (unused yellow space saver) hoovered and detailed it all and pit it all back

All door jams and rubbers are now fully cleaned and treated using megs APC, every part of the dash, all door cards, grab handles, interior lights, centre console, pedal box and seat plastics have been agitated with megs APC and a selection of brushes to get it all spotlessly clean and dried off using a pre soaked microfibre in megs last touch that's been rung dried,

Needless to say now the interior is totally immaculate

Next job I think will be to paint the head in a Matt red high temperature paint, but that's gonna be hard as it's so big and has loads coming from it

Engine has the prodrive performance pack ecu, Milltek cat back exhaust, k & n panel filter and STI Intercooler, currently runs 301 bhp, plenty for now but more in the long term maybe

Cheers for the kind words

I absolutely despise Scoobys, but at least this one is in good hands.

Good luck with the wedding mate!
