2008 sti hatch, where do i start?
 

Hi all, my names Izzy.

I own a 08 impreza sti hatchback,which is fully stock.
Would like to know if anyone is available to help me out with mods,improvements and other general advice. What, when, where to start and/or how to go about making the most of what I have.
Daily driver, not for the track but still looking for strength/power, reliability and style.
Willing to travel anywhere close to the Lynwood area.
Thinking it's better to get help here before making bad money decisions at the shops.
Even if you think you can teach me how to drive it properly, All help and advice appreciated.

Thankyou

Welcome, Evolution R is very close to u. Turbo back exhaust and swaybar r good start.

I made comments on all the mods I did on my car (also 08 sti ;) ) Hopefully it helps.

Do some research on here. Read build threads. Plenty of information on here to get you started before you even think of going to any workshop.

What do you want from the car?
What size the budget?
What do you like about other cars you've seen?
Do you want to do it all yourself?

Answer those questions and do some reading. There is a sizeable knowledge base here.

Adding to what Dave has posted above...

If I were going down this path, I would choose a tuner first and then discuss with them what I want to achieve and how they can help to get me there.
If you don't like what you hear from that particular tuner, you are more than welcome to consult another.

There is a list of tuners in Perth in the [URL="http://www.perth-wrx.com/vb/mechanicals/6775-perth-workshops.html"]Perth Workshop Thread[/URL].

Oh and welcome to Perth WRX!
:D

Im struggling to answer this last question Dave.

Hi nick where are you located? Short back and sides cost? Thread killer.....

Or you can do it all yourself ? I think what he is saying

There are three cars close to you. All are different set ups

Gorden first replied to you & he has an 08.

Can meet up for a coffee in Vic park one evening for a chat, I can get the guys together. I am sure I can get Gorden out for a tea. It would give you a wider view of three cars the same model as yours as they differ so greatly.

Sounds great Neil Im eager to listen and learn. Anytime.

Fuck doing it yourself. Pay some other cnut and then sell it for a huge loss.

1) Butler exhaust/tune
2) Decent Coilovers - I had KW V3's in mine
3) HT Auto's kit is good, and pretty cheap
4) Tail Light overlays (although they are a bitch to install).
5) Some nice rims/tyres.

That's what I did to mine anyway.. looked/went ok.
