Very nice mate I do like the alloys , I'm in same boat with regards to kids I'm not sure what else I can do to mine lol . Got the UEl manifold ect ..how much were the alloys ?

keefyb

The alloys on their own cost £356 iirc, tyres were £180. I only bought the gunmetal ones coz i they didnt have white ones in stock. But they coming off over the winter to be painted white, and ill use my wrx wheels as winter boots.

That's a tidy looking GX you have there,
any pics of the engine bay?

Nomad_72

Cheers mate, I've added a splitter and an STI grille since those pics were taken. Haven't taken any engine bay pics as I never clean under the bonnet lol! The only mod in the bay is an induction kit. The cold air feed pipe from the spot cover goes up the inside of the wing and exits directly onto the induction cone.

Hey, This is my 1996 pre-facelift sport.

This is how it looked when i first got it:



This is how it looks now:





There are more mods to come like 4 pots, facelift convertion (I like pre-face, I just came across facelift wrx bonned with perfect colour match so I went for it.), coilovers etc.

Bet that stops better now with some half decent calipers up front?

spuker1

Yes it does stop rather well with newage 4 pots on... It actually is completely different to what I expected. I thought it's going to be very hard on the pedal and very sharp and easy to lock because of my **** tires but actually it's the opposite. It's as soft as crappy 1pots it's slightly sharper on the pedal it stops a bit quicker but IT NEVER LOCKS. I can put the foot all the way down and the ABS doesn't even come on. They are brilliant.

My first, an MY99 Australian RX


My second, an MY99 UK Sport


And hopefully when I'm done fixing and adding mods to my Sport I'll give the Sport to my wife and move on to buy either a turbo, WRX or STi... Still deciding on that one!
