All depends, if its going to be your daily and going often off road then foz seats would be the best bet and really much more comfy. But i guess looks also counts:) thus my choice:pRumbl1n wrote: Painted my roof with vinyl paint only things left for the interior its to carpet the sub box and a pair of seats (not sure to go forester seats for comfort or wrx seats for looks)
Great pics:) where did you put the cd player?

I must be getting old- I don't like the monster tachometer / shift light at all.
Kudos on the interior respray, looks neat, but that tacho down in front of the gear stick is (in my humble opinion) just dangerous. Anything that takes your attention from up high to down low is a risk.
Sorry to be a downer, you've obviously done a stack of work, but for me, the interior would be much nicer if you chucked that monstrosity into the nearest bin.
Old man rant over! Oh, actually hang on, bloody kids of today! Now that's better, time for a cup of tea and a nice lay down.

You're not alone there
But when that is the only thing you can moan about on a car then that car has got to be a good'un
red painted dash looks good

Its ok i think, Would have put a smaller one but its his car. Let hope the bass level won't crack the glass:p lol. Ohhhh and don't put 20inch chrome wheels on the car, that will get you a big hate thread. lol
Whats the plans? is it going to be an off-roader or a lowered WRX conversion?

Hey boys thought I would check in no photos but things have changed a little I removed a front cv took the shaft out and put just the inners an outers back in (now its rear wheel drive going to keep a spare cv for off roading as it doesn't take long to change).
Single slip wasn't that great so now I have welded the spline gears which is great fun in the dry but this first rain is making me question wether to leave it in I can't gear down it just compression locks and taking any acceleration around a corner it's opposite lock which can be fun but not worth the risk in safety and the law as fun as it is.
Future plan is to put the front cv in and remove a rear an just put the rear in for 4wd trips I think this is the best idea without removing the locker

This is definitely the go!Rumbl1n wrote:Future plan is to put the front cv in and remove a rear an just put the rear in for 4wd trips I think this is the best idea without removing the locker
Just watch out for the trap that the welded rear can get you into - it'll get you to places you couldn't go before AND it will also get you stuck in places that are much much worse than you could find before!
Enjoy!

my mate has a welded diff in his rwd drive car and its fine in the wet, although the car is set up for drifting....
can you weld the rear diff in the AWD subaru's or does this stuff up the center diff?

yes same concerns would be able to flex to much and possible weaken or bend the c channelEl_Freddo wrote:Gone the same style as the SJR lift from the US?
My personal concern with that setup is that it's just a piece of C section, but I guess if the steel is thick enough and of good quality it shouldn't be an issue.
Looking forward to what you do with the front end
