nice tunned, good work

Do you have details or a link to direct me toward the Koyo radiator you have? I'd appreciate it, since in the states nothing appears to be direct drop in replacement vs. Stock.

I ordered it from Garage 88 and they installed it. I assume it was drop in replacement as I saw one being installed and it looked simple enough. But I'd check with them first to see if they had to modify anything to fit it.

I still have the box in my garage so maybe the picture below helps?

Looks like model VH2778 and I found a link to that product here (bottom of list): http://www.koyoradracing.com/products/r ... ake=Subaru

It does say it is only for model years 05-09 but it must fit somehow because it's in my car!!

Thank ya sir. Ill do some searching on the dimensions of our stock one to make sure it matches.

Mine were ordered brand new from Garage 88 - I don't actually have the details of what model etc. There are others I believe who have sourced them 2nd hand I think which would be a cheaper option. SYM (Simon) may be able to help you with further info.

Thanks mate, most stuff I've sourced through Garage 88, but you can get the lip other places too (e.g. japanparts).

And yes the Brembo's were expensive. You could do it cheaper looking for second hand, but for myself I've never been bothered trying to do things on a budget! (prefer to avoid the hassle)

Still a few weeks away unfortunately. Going to be epic though when finished! Will post updates on what's been happening soon...

[dr20t]

Update mick?

[satogixxer]

I wish.

It's a long story of numerous delays getting things done by various parties.

Soon maybe - although with WTAC only a couple of weeks off that will probably delay things again. Can't win.

Small update - unboxed an early Xmas present for myself this week.

RAYS Volk Racing ZE40 in Diamond Dark Gunmetal - 18x9.5 +43

For those interested, wheel weight without tyre is 8.4kg. Nice and light fully forged goodness.

I wasn't planning to fit these until the tread on my current wheels is completely worn out, which unfortunately means it will be next year sometime before I see how they look on the car. My existing tyres have end up lasting waaaaaaaaaaaaaaay longer than expected. (very hard to wear out tyres without the wheels moving, but that's a story for another time)

Anyway I think these look fantastic in the box at least.

Will be wrapping them in Yokohama ADVAN Neova AD08R tyres when the time comes - 255/40R18

Hoping it all fits - guards will need to be rolled and maybe some camber added.
