Default My Mates MY06 STI

First MY06 STI to roll out of Lucas of Mansfield.

I`m liking the Jap Dials on the MY06, compared to my old MY03STI.

TIP: Always use the washers when people are walking right past the bumpers

Thats becasue they fit normal halogen bulbs for the SVA, then re-fit the HID afterwards. Exactly what happened to mine.

took me a spin in it last night (very nice) takin it steady for the first 1000 miles though so cant give comments on performance other than saying it proper feels quick even just up to about 4000rpm the suspensions a nice compromise between comfortable and hard,seats are probably a bit firmer too- just sits a bit high for for my liking but nothing a set of springs wouldnt sort-only thing that would bug me a bit is the fact that the instrument panel lights up red and the stereo/centre console lights are green-would have been better all red in my opinion.(oh and hate the rear window spoiler )

Cheers

If you are talking about the tail lights, the 05 STi ones fit perfectly.
