After a day of swearing with a few issues during install, I finally got my sti pinks in!
Really love how the car sits now, the 18s now fill the wheel arches nicely and the front lip clears my steep driveway entry by a couple of millimetres.
Got a wheel alignment afterwards and the ride on the way home felt much firmer and nicer.
Here's how the car sits now:
Unfortunately I have not been able to drive the car at all since the install and alignment due to a bad fall on bike that has required realignment surgery on a broken elbow.
Because of my current predicament I had to cancel my tinting with Rob tomorrow but will be rebooking with him once I'm healed.
Apart from that still browsing for some new 18s in Matte Black most likely, suggestions welcome!

hey mate sorry for bring this thread up.
but i'm interested in getting some sti pinks for my billies.
i was wondering if you could show me some more photos of how you're car sits?
the only photo i see is the rear wheel, but i like the look of it so far.
also i want to know what type of springs you got, whether they we're GT Manuel springs or surely not (wagon) springs etc. haha
much appreciation from a fellow liberty enthusiast!

The part numbers are on the boxes above, recommended by the guys over at IM and many legacy gt forums.
Opinions differ on this (check my reply in a recent thread on this in the suspension section) but basically the spring rates are the same on all variants so the only thing that differs is length to attribute for different weight (wagon vs sedan etc.)
I found these p#s give a nice even stance and the ride is definitely stiffer but bearable and with the lower centre of gravity it handles more direct with less body roll.

Thanks mate, always liked the idea of changing the bar to a more interesting Japanese variant. Especially since the previous owner messed up the stock bar.
Funnily enough the US legacy owners are obsessed with out stock bar, and often call it rare JDM...

No worries, i would have tried and source one for mine if i had of known about the JDM bars before mine went into the panel beaters but didnt see one before it got sent in
