Had the car up on stands as the wheels were getting the Michelins put on.
Naturally the new Volks got clayed, polished and waxed.
Glad I did as they came up pretty nice. :)
While she was up on stands I decided to drop the arch liners and give her a good scrub. Dropped the discs off to...
I didn't buy them new. The cheapest I can find them is $850 per rim in the US. Then you need to add duty and vat. So probably around £3k by time they get here.
I paid £1500 as they are and the Goodyears are going. I'll be putting my Michelin Pilot Super Sports back on these rims. The Goodyears...
Well after 9 years my cars worn gold wheels of some sort.
It's was time for a change so I took quite a big punt on these. Always anxious of the murdered out black on black look. But I must say, so far I quite like it.
So far I think it makes the car look pretty brutal even when stationary...
UK STI 7s. (Bugeye STI) came with a VF30, not a 35. Twin scrolls were not on the JDM cars till the version 8.
The JDM cars also came with a quicker ratio steering rack.
All that "Stance" rubbish should be left to all the fat Audi and Lexus barges that don't handle in the first place.
Sorry, but stretched tyres and crazy camber doesn't belong on an Impreza. Leave it to the euro nobs. :(
Lol at all those ruined hatches with all that "hellaflush/canibeat" cak stuck all over them. Looks bloody awful.
Wouldnt handle a carpark track, or any proper power. Slightest bit of poke would have them spitting driveshafts out like dummies.
Ruined :(
Yeah, we all have a great crack with eachother. Everything from 500bhp escort cossies to Porsches and Lambos. We're all petrolheads and love a Sunday morning raid.
What I will say is that Pete's LP is stunning every day of the week, cruise, motorway, Hoon, shopping run, It doesn't matter...
Actually Bill the Impreza is quicker. I was backing off when I got too close. Even with me on my pump fuel map, and having to use a manual gearbox.
I'd say up to 150mph'ish I'd monster the LP... After that, power, gearing and aero would see the LP disappear and I wouldn't stand a chance.
The...
If anyone fancies a watch, there are some clips of my Impreza chasing my friends Muircilago LP640
For those that don't know, at the start of the month a few of us went out for a little drive. Starting off at Paul Stephen Porsche Specialist and ending up at the Classic & Sports car show in Bury...
Lol, nah I won't be buying one anytime soon. As cool as they are it would be a huge step back and just not the way I wanna go. I do love the way they look and the fact they're quite special.
My next car will have the engine in the back I hope. But would still like a go in a V6 Clio if anyone...
