Me and my wife bought one 4 weeks ago. I really love it. Immense power compared to what I expected. Quite upsetting though really because my ERST is gonna have to be pretty good to beat it lol. That looks really nice. We payed £2000 for a diablo red one. It's gorgeous.

I had two rear wiper motors, one phase two and one phase 3, i sold the phase 3 one for £30 and the phase two one i gave to my brother coz his one didnt work either, apparently if you cut the nipple off the phase two it fits the phase 3's lol

I almost got some of them but aparently the offset is strange and they sit way to far in the arch, prob wont even notice once on! post some pics when you lowered it and put them on! Yeah i love the way it sits, alot of people say how nice it sits with the back slighty higher!
I bought 60mm springs int he end, and they seem to of failed!

its all about the 5 pot
I loved my 6, it was a blaze yellow S reg 70k minter, shocking fuel consumption and the worst ever lock to lock lol, was a bitch to get the gearbox out to do the clutch as the pin was seized in the clutch arm.
Got slated on another forum who refused to believe it held off an 05 reg wrx with ease on a duel carrigeway up to 95. Bargain cars IMO

but then a clio 172 would probably give a boggo uk wrx a fairly good run for its money, when my saff was an ill stage 1, only running low boost it was very even with a mates uk wrx, and my other mates 182 would harrass the hell out of my saff!

I guess. It does feel quick and a car with boost always feels quicker cos you get that boost feeling. I haven't raced it against anything really. It did manage to stay with my pals ST but I doubt he was trying. He said he thought it felt quick when he came out in it. A very underestimated car I think. God I hope my RS is quicker. If my wifes car is quicker than mine I'll never hear the end of it lol. Does anybody know if an induction kit and cat back stainless hurts the performance? We just want that lovely noise more than anything else.

You should hear the noise of mine, cone air filter and 3 inch magnex, soon to have a decat! It is sexual at 7k
WongRs, yours look spot on with the Gti 180 wheels on it!
As for scoobys etc, I had a play off a round about with one, he was 5 up and he couldnt catch me. it was about 200bhp, a decent one should of pissed all over me!
I showed a 172 cup that he got the wrong French hot hatch the other week though!

Done a few bits to it-
Had some 4 pot brembos on it, looked good, stopped good, sounded shit
The old Xsi with some nice Gti 6 brakes
So then i had to get some more callipers and discs and pads to put back on mine.
Sold the Brembo's and the missus got me some black masks for my birthday on Wednesday
Also got some wind deflectors which i think suit it quite well and they work well too
Sorry for the poor pics, all off my iPhone
