new clean car pics..5k no no

I want to replace the shocks... as I think they're well past their sell by date !
I've been told the kyb agx's are quite good, apparently you can use any springs on them made for the Impreza.
I'm looking at getting the H&R Springs as it sits amazing! Then maybe just the kyb version of the standard turbo shocks. Don't know how much it'll cost. probs ~£500 in total then add fitting and everything at powerstation. Ideally I need to talk to them first !

yea the kyb's are adjustable, and as i said only like 50 squid a pair for front and back (on my car anyway) and i have alos been told that TEIN springs are very good also.

yea will prolly cost 500 inc fitting i think, they blag it as a time and manual labour consuming job to fit.
 
It looks really good without that ugly scoop getting in the way, never really appreciated the look until those clean pics! nice one :) Looks very tidy.

cheers !

since having my car I seem to have gone off the scoops... but hey that's probably me just being jealous of the ones which have got them :D
 
ow.. nearly £400 inc vat ! maybe another time ? :D
I've got a few maintenance things to do this months pay, need tyres, and need to change oil/filter. Plus will be having the alignment done as I'm guessing it hasnt been done in a while. Going to be like £600 in total! :eek:
 
well ~400 for tyres including fitting and balancing. then £100 for alignment and some good oil and a filter which I'll fit myself. It's not often I have to spend money like this to maintain it though!
 
because I'll have it done at powerstation for fast road settings. Plus that's me adding any new bolts that I may need. When my dad had his done he needed two new bolts costing £20 each :o

Looking very good mate - can thoroughly recommend Powerstation as well ;)
They're doing a great deal on AST coilovers at the moment - a grand which includes fitting and four wheel alignement...
 
ah I know !! I was looking at it thinking... do it.. but then sense got the better of me. Plus a grand... before pay day (it ends 18th March I believe?). and still being 17 I haven't got a credit card like some haha!
Thing is once I've done suspension, and colour coding... that's pretty much me done on this car, maybe some new seats too. So then I can start saving for that turbo for when I'm 19 next year hehe :D
 
I ordered mine from USautomotives - It's a Borla manifold.
I also ordered my dad's from America but from Gruppe-s.com

What car is it that you have again mate?

i have a primera 2.0i gt, i am looking at importing an ss autochrome header as part of a group buy on sr20forums! they are only charging $130 inc shipping locally inc downpipe and all gaskets/bolts etc which is pretty cheap + shipping to uk, looking at 8-10bhp at the wheel apparently which should put it at 120-130 ish i think!

just wondering about fitting costs etc as i cant do the job myself!
