Thanks for the input guys! Have taken all on board. Won't be happening until probably the end of the year as I have a big trip in June/July and am flat out the rest of the year.

Ok time for a tiny little update. Have been smashing out the hours at work to fund my Euro trip in June which has therefore left me very little time to get anything done on the Sti.

I have however, had time to turf that bunnings spec wind deflector on the intercooler! I cranked out the tig and made up a new one out of proper 316 plate. Will upload pic tonight.

While I'm here, my car has STD Coilover's....Are these as poopy as I think they might be? They are forever creaking and clunking over bumps etc. Not sure if it's due to the H brace stiffening up the chassis and not allowing much flex or? Having owned a set of Ohlin's before I am starting to think these coilover's are simply just pieces of shite! Any suggestions?
