it's going to need 2 brackets. mounting overtop of the turbo manifold.. trying to get a decent manifold. talked to gary about the thunder mani. i can get a custom one with no EGR for 408.00 shipped.. which i like..

Have you tested out the skirt extensions? Are those going on the stock sides?

What I meant is are you using wheels with a different offset, or wider, or...because wheel spacers (true hubcentric ones, not cheap eBay aluminum/plastic ones) may be a better option for you.

i have a 3" exhaust now, i'm gonna change it up a bit.. well. i have an HKS hi power muffler, which i'll likely stick with. i wanna have the angle kinda like subarus do often.. but i have a high flow cat in it currently, that'll be nixxed. and I'll build a custom 3 " downpipe off the turbo.. first things' first.. getting all the parts!

thanks!

haven't tested them yet. it might be a while. for the 50.00 it might be worth it to just buy them for yourself! they're going on msp sides.

oh right. i dont think i'll need spacers or anything. i'm going to attempt to get the correct measurements and order the RIGHT wheels for the setup when the time comes.

hey guys! just a small.. TINY update..

I had javad (matrix) over today to work on his engine harness.. while he was here, i fitted the wrx strakes on. they looked sweet. i meant to take a picture, but i TOTALLY forgot. I"m really sorry. I'm excited to actually put them on, i dont believe there will be much, if ANY modification necessary to fit these correctly!!

YAY. i'll hit up my shop tomorrow and grab some pictures if i can, of them "fitted" to my car or ghostones.(dance)

 

[HKPRO5]

yea ive been waiting for that pic. lol

 

[Dpwhitehead1]

there you go

 

[xDJ DUBx]

Oh wow, those fit pretty good. I'm taking those pics to the photoshop thread

 

[Dpwhitehead1]
