Alrighty, So still not alot has changed with the bug but interestingly enough, I have had the car a bit over 12months now and somehow managed to take a picture in more or less the Same spot as to what i did the 1st day i had it.

Day 1

12 Months On.


The car looks wise has come a long way (i think) towards what i want it to look like!

I Debadged the SUBARU badge yesterday and after much thinking the WRX one will be departing too next weekend


Also I took this pic yesterday showing off a VERY curvy front end followed up by some ULTREX love.


Driving Wise the car has been extactly what i wanted it to be.
It has been an excellent step up from my Old RS2.5 Of Fury
*cue Nostalgia Picture*


I've done 3 No Limits Events and have managed to chop some Meat out of my times to be close to where the level of the car is.
I competed in the All Japanese Day Successfully and place 10th for in the session.

The car hasn't skipped a beat all year and has served me well from being a Collie/Barbagello/RAC/Cruise Monkey to being a sedate passenger car ferrying round my nearly 4yr old to and from daycare etc.

So I guess Upon reflection ( it is that time of the year right) i think this year has been good but the best is well and truely yet to come :-D

Mods As they Stand For December.

Car: 2002 Bugeye STi

Mechanical - Diff back Exhaust
Whiteline 24mm Rear Swaybar with HD Mounting Kit & HD Links - Set to M
QFM A1RM Pads Front & Bendix CPX Rear With Brembo DOT5 Brake Fluid
18x8 Rota Torque Rims with Federal 595 SuperStreet - 235/35/18
Standard STi Rims are in the same rubber - 225/45/17
Cosmetic - CF Lookalike Reflector Deletes
6000k Hid Kit - Low Beam Only
Pioneer Ipod Deck with MBQuartz Speakers
RallyArmour Mudflaps with Silver Logos
ULTREX Front Lip - Which looks Awesome
Debadged SUBARU Lettering & WRX Impreza Logos off Bootlid.

So What does the future hold???

Good question!

Well it will hopefully shape up like this
Front Whiteline 22mm Front Swaybar
Group N Transmission Mount
Short Shifter With new Perrin Shifter Bushes
Whiteline Anti Lift Kit, Lowered Progessive Rate Springs, Roll Centre Kit, New Wheel Alignment, 2x 4Pt Harness's, Cat Back Exhaust, Repowdercoat STi Rims White & Wrap in sticky rubber & Attack Collie And Barbagello all over again!

Cheers N Beers
Also A Big Thankyou to the people who have helped me out, pointed me in the right direction, explained things & just generally been awesome to me over this past year! I've had an absolute blast!

Alrighty!

Not Alot has changed Since the last update. Completed the last round of the Rallysprint ( Just :-/) I managed to miss my braking markers by a country mile and bash into a curb going a little quicker than i would have liked.
Ive bent something in the suspension because the steering is all cockeyed and off centre and done a bit of damage to Front Left Rim.
After that i have been very not interested in cars but recently ive been all interested again and have decided to blow some money on the car :-D

This weekend ill be repairing ( with some help) the rocker cover gaskets and replacing the spark plugs, seals and bits and pieces while its all off. Ive used all genuine parts for the lot.
Would also like to put my group N tranny mount this weekend ( Spektre :-D)

Subsquently, the rear guards will be getting rolled in a couple of weeks and ill be finding some low soon after.

Hopefully, ill be removing the old shit cheap crap milo tin muffler off the back and will be replacing it with a decent quality S/S Oval Muffler. will probs remove the Centre muffler too!

Apart from that, the car is being driven less due to having a VW caddy to cruise around in. Ive got some other stuff on this year that will limit car spending but id like to get my 17's repowdercoated ( thinking bright blue) and ill whack some New Hankook RS3's on there for track duties :-D

Dave

Spew about the damage Dave. Glad its not bad though.

Rolling gaurds is easy BTW. I did it myself. Just roll a baseball bat, mag torch etc around after heating the paint a little bit.

Are the rs3's r comps?
