Perth-WRX.com - Hi All !

[QUOTE=misswrxy;517743]to fix First:-

I have the larger STi wing on but it wasnt fitted properly and it seems to leak in the wet weather, any ideas where I should go to get this fixed ?[/QUOTE]

You can have a crack at this yourself 'with a little help removing the wing'.

Remove the wing by undoing the screws/nuts from under the boot lid as well as disconnecting the brake light.

Once you've done that you can either go and buy some rubber 'from say clarke rubber', or windscreen sealant 'from anywhere that sells automotive products and do one of the following:

Rubber: Cut the rubber to the same size as where the spoiler attaches to the boot lid 'personally I'd still put a little windscreen sealant around the holes of the boot lid for a precaution', and refit;
Windscreen sealant: Place windscreen sealant around the holes of the boot lid, and refit.

[QUOTE=misswrxy;517743]may also want to get a new interior for the boot as mines warped,[/QUOTE]

Check the Quokka/Paper for people wrecking their vehicle, or alternately give JWS a call [url]http://japanesewholesale.com.au/[/url].

[QUOTE=misswrxy;517743]Also a new front bumper/ as when I left it some unmentionables put spotlights on it that are hard wired into the High beam :( it looks like a beatle ! :( but im hearing upgrade of a nice front section ? any suggestions?[/QUOTE]

It really depends how they have installed them, for example if they have done a lot of cutting into the bumper it may be cheaper to source a second hand one, or if they have run a bracket off the frame of the vehicle you may just be able to get the bracket removed and take it off in one hit 'a closeup detailed picture of the front end will enable a better answer'.

If you're not confident or don't have access to someone whom can confidently disconnect the spotlights from where they are spliced into I would strongly suggest getting an electrician/motor mechanic to do it for you as you don't want to cut into wires or leave exposed wires hanging around 'note I base this off your comment that these where spliced into your highbeams'.

[QUOTE=misswrxy;517743]and then starting at basics, I guess wanting to do a new stereo system, lowered, bodykit, different mirrors?..and exhaust, etc, any ideas info ? or what I should start on first...with risk of sounding stoopid ! .... sorry ![/QUOTE]

This is where you'll need to get an understanding of what you want out of the car before you start shelling out hard earned monies.

Some simple responses to your questions:

As far as mechanics to chat to about performance upgrades as well as mechanical services this forum favors the following:

I would strongly suggest having a look through the forums first as there is a lot of information regarding performance upgrades so basically have an understanding of what you want to achieve whether it be:

- I would like my car to sound nicer;
- I want my car to go faster; or
- I want my car to handle better.

Well that's enough from me :p

Welcome and enjoy!!
