i did what now? painted the intake manifold? if thats the consensus then its not true as that manifold has never come off or been re-painted. im very very lucky the sti red *cherry blossom* crinkle paint is in awesome condition as per factory.

brakes are on hold for now...car to mms tomorrow after my exam to get new headers put on, may be a bit of a muck around to fit the external gate but im sure they'll get the job done.

update on the brakes, after some deliberation leaning towards the prodrive Alcons Jester and Joe have, big ups to Ramon providing me with alot of info on how his brembo installation went and how they feel with no ABS.

car isn't liking summer/the heat very much so going to be getting some bits to keep her cool, oil cooler and aluminium radiator and silicone hose kit...suggestions? PWR stuff looks pretty good, any hints tips etc is always appreciated

ah excellent, abdus is a great dude, good to deal with...where are they generally fitted (so they get good airflow) on cars with front mounts?

i cant really make much of the pic of your headers, is it because the headers have a dodgey weld job??

Front grill left hand side half on a GD. The PW one is a nice bit of kit, function and looks good. Decent gear. I have a photo of it and the Sti spec hoses in my thread dude. Would happily recommend both. Quality. (You can buy direct from Kevin, and save a WA workshop markup perhaps?).

Chad, you can fit an oil cooler where the top mount used to go under the bonnet scoop
