Thanks Ty it's more of a drivers car tbh, the steering feels more precise! It hides the speed very well too!! I just need a longer 5th gear or a 6 speed DCCD box I think you would like it, maybe you could get one next !!

I think if I were to go for a classic it would be an STi RA but never say never...

But it would need to be a good car to beat the Spec C, especially since my latest acquistion.

A V limited maybe? A late STi RA would be a good replacement too try one first, you never know!!

Just put some different wheels on, I liked the OZs but they wouldn't clear Brembos when I eventually upgrade to them! Bought these 2003 STi alloys off Killa on here (cheers mate )

Gap on the OZs



Gap on the STi alloys



When I decide to get them refurbed I'll go slightly darker but I love the way these look on classics



Will get some better pics up after a good clean tomorrow

I'd love a set of Rota Force eventually but these will be staying for a while! May get some Rotas for the summer

I do like the colour so may get them refursbed so they're mint! Need to get new tyres on the front and get the ugly weights put on the inside
