Love the Brembos, keep seeing them on classics lately, it's really making me want a set!

Nice Car I may be a little bias though

Wheels are much better, like the Sti6 splitter got to get one for mine, like the grey graphic on the fog covers

Exactly, that look terrible, was that the first change (god I hope so).
Looks so much better what you have done to it now as a whole.
Love the PFF7's, I want some.

Those red momo steering wheels where a factory option. Looks one of the worst options I have seen for an impreza. Also you could get the dash surround and vents red also. Yuck!

Thanks again for the nice comments makes the hard work seem worth while.

Fitted my new exhaust today HKS high power silent so its got the jap angled look and is 3" all the way through but is nice and quiet so not to wake the neighbours.
Cant believe how quiet it is untill you put your foot down.

will get some pics but it been raining all afternoon.

Car looks nice but I never like the idea of removing the rear quarter and boot decals on these.. it's an essential part of the look of the 2 door sti's for me.
