Kinda, err, broke the budget. Oops.
Black, MY07, hatch. Only mod is slotted from rotors.
Too dark to take pictures, but here's one from google

yep
There is a perrin kit that consists of 22mm front and 24mm rear plus links, mounts etc - that would be the equiv. of what I had on my MY05 so keen for that in a couple of months when the bank account recovers a bit. I kinda spent twice as much as when I was first looking.....
Cant say I'm noticing the 2.5 being *that* much different to the old motor either. Need to drive them back to back I guess. Mine had a couple more reddies than a stocker (like 15-20kw) so that is likely masking the difference.
One nice thing though - the seats have lumbar pads!! The old Pre 06 seats are really lacking in that dept. I didn't realize these were different. Nice bonus.
Steering wheel is thicker too. Don't like the gear knob feel though.

Nicely done Clive.
Needs wheels bad. Lip, covers, done.
White enkei's like a sti-RA would be nice. Or even just the gunmetal ones off the tuned by sti jobbies. Has brand spanked tyres on it right now, so not going to bother for a bit. There isn't even a single gutter rub mark on the rims. Car has been well looked after - just needs a good polish.
Front sti lips do look good too. I'm not even sure if I can be bothered with more power. Won't see a track in reality, and for round the streets and an occasional hills blast a Rex with decent suspension and stock power is a good thing.

So hung out at the house of Subaru today
Watched a sexy mans ass
Ended up with this
Then went and saw another mate
04 Steering wheel now works with horn and indicator cancel, mirrors work again, number plate lights replaced and stereo wired up again.
When I get back from holidays Ill be chasing a GD tmic and a TD05.
What are the black rims you ended up with?
G-Max Solaris - Australian Pride!
Not made anymore, but the longer I have had them the happier Ive become with them. Everyones had positive comments to make in person so always a good thing.
GD Sti? Not much point otherwise.......most of the gain is in replacing the shitty plastic y-pipe.
Ok, so its been two months, havnt really had much to add -
If people thought it looked decent before - words cannot describe how good it has come up now after its first detail.
It is so so so so so bright in sunlight, and just has that extra level of gloss and "pop" that I never thought it needed but certainly appreciate having. A phone camera does not do it justice.
Also picked these up in the last week or so -
GD WRX cooler - much bigger than a GC one.
Tein coilovers so I could be like Dylan.
TD05 - nothing huge, but will give me ~30, running stock ecu and hopefully not grenade a box.
willsy01 ill replace the pipe with a Samco one I have coming
i came in here expecting a type 3 VW wagon,
SUNTORY BOSS is the boss of them all since 1992!
