How about wrapping the DAMD gear same colour as the body work?
P.S. May I ask where you got the weathershields from?

would blend in too much, will be going either gloss or matte black in the next week or two for the damd stuff and front lip

weathershields i got from its-sti. he's still got a set for sale afaik PM him or check his FS thread. subaru have limited numbers left from what i remember

YAY!!

Very cool! Make those blue parts black and you got a winner

We have people coming to look at our house today so won't make it out to garage 88 this morning dude!

Let me know how it is, if your not busy later on (or are keen for a drive to dural ) we should meet up. Want to check out the new gear!

[bates91]

headers installed today, sounds amazing much more race-like and high pitched, especially over 3.5/4k rpm it just sings!!

also group N transmission mount installed as well, massive improvement. wanted engine mounts done at the same time but it turns out theyre different from the 4cyl engines, and there aren't actually any made for the H6. not fussed, as the difference is exactly what i wanted, not able to feel the momentum of the engine/gearbox moving when clutch in to shift. old one was rooted.

kido tune coming hopefully when matt is in sydney in a few weeks, then might get a dyno run after that just to see the power figure with headers now installed. (reference point, justin got 160atw with them on his car)

love it!

STi tranny mount gets rid of so much pitch so you can shift a lot more smoothly

Thanks mate.

genuine sti 3.0 front lip soon to be acquired

the GT replica one was about 90% perfect....but that other 10% fitment was starting to get to me..especially with such good fitment of the DAMD skirts haha

Awesome! Just don't spray it blue

Blue is nice.

Blue is nice.

indeed it is rome
very keen for a ride in your car now youve got all this stuff installed!

lip has been acquired, will be installed sometime between wed-fri as ive got a couple of days off. skirts etc returned to black
also picking up that regu06&r catback off its-sti, hoping it changes the exhaust note as xforce centre is creating a little bit too much drone for me atm. will probably keep the magnaflow mufflers though
thinking of getting a muffler welded in place where the hotdog resonator is on the xforce centre to quieten it down a bit if i dont like the regu06 one. all experimenting haha

Sounds good next time I see you I'll take you for a spin for sure!

[bates91]

lip is on, skirts are now black. no pics because I'm usually pretty lazy with photos unless people yell at me
should be getting a fairly decent photoshoot done soon though

trialling things with the regu06 stuff, will need slight modification to fit, but should be worth it sound-wise
watch this space..

oh and tune is booked in for the 15th

[SH30RB]

ED! TAKE SOME F%&#ING PHOTOS!

Keen to hear the Regu06 zorst
