Impreza seats and boat vents - cwspellowe - 02-05-2013
Yay, productive day today. Got my impreza seats fitted finally along with the boat vents yesterday. Oh and got my wheels balanced at last, which highlighted some very worrying quality issues with the XXR's. think i'll be dropping them an email, it's as if when they cast them, the spokes are unequal length on one wheel, meaning the lip is about 2mm thicker on one side? Took about 120g to balance the fucker!
Anyway, today's pics

it will be a shame to break it after the summer, why not just give it a well wound engine too so its got vicious power.
RE: Impreza seats and boat vents - C.A.R. - 02-05-2013
Them seats really need a wet vac...

True, but i paid £20 cashola for them so not really complaining at the mo.
To be honest, now the wheels are balanced and a few suspension bits tightened, i'm really leaning towards keeping it. I mean.. would be waste not to see the full potential of the blower, right?

I love it shame to see it get broken!
Re: Impreza seats and boat vents - Tyronnster - 02-05-2013

RE: Impreza seats and boat vents - cwspellowe - 02-05-2013
Erm, 5mm steel plate and bolts whacked onto the Subaru sliders.. Subframes? What are they?

yeah I see the car has loads of potential, at the end of the day you are getting the chassis practically mustard. be a waste when you have got this far and decide to recycle it. my little rover i am still scratching the surface with it, as my dad says why not go throttle boddies.

RE: Impreza seats and boat vents - Scott - 02-05-2013
Those seats look great, though as said they look filthy
RE: Impreza seats and boat vents - Grant - 03-05-2013
This is fapping epic! You've gotta keep it Chris.
RE: Impreza seats and boat vents - Niall - 03-05-2013
You just bolted them through the floor pan didn't you Chris? Lol
RE: Impreza seats and boat vents - cwspellowe - 03-05-2013
nah i actually cut up some steel brackets and used the original mount points. Would have been a pain bolting them to the floor with the annoying box section in the way
RE: Impreza seats and boat vents - 306GT30 - 03-05-2013
Looks epic, you know what youre missing though?
To bad you live across the pond, otherwise you could visit me and i could shoot you some 9mm bulletholes in a few panels... that would look shit hot
RE: Impreza seats and boat vents - cwspellowe - 03-05-2013
OMG. Come to Scotland. I will supply you with haggis and irn bru

yeah I know the scots drink a lot of irn bru, proberly why Gordon shedden own the btcc last year
RE: Impreza seats and boat vents - Dum-Dum - 03-05-2013
Chris if you genuinely want some bullet holes in the car I know a guy who could do it for you if your ever down this way.
Impreza seats and boat vents - Jonny b - 03-05-2013
I could get bullet holes done for ya aswell bud lol
RE: Impreza seats and boat vents - Arron - 03-05-2013
Looks epic. Them vents look mint too, im sure that idea will be copied by a few d turbo owners on top mounts to aid cooling, need them on the otherway round to the way you have them on tho

It would Completely mess up airflow if you do this on a TMIC...
Nonetheless it looks badass as f**k
RE: Impreza seats and boat vents - Eeyore - 03-05-2013

Wut? So the stock bonnet felt is more effective than what two of them positioned to flow passing air over the top of the cooler to disperse the heat would be?
RE: Impreza seats and boat vents - Just Sean - 03-05-2013
Yeah, because of low pressure and high presuure airflow
RE: Impreza seats and boat vents - rocker8742 - 03-05-2013
Chris what did you use to do the doorcards red?
RE: Impreza seats and boat vents - c.gerrard - 03-05-2013
Red Fabric
RE: Impreza seats and boat vents - Arron - 03-05-2013
Say no more
RE: Impreza seats and boat vents - r3k1355 - 03-05-2013
Personally I think it looks pretty silly.
In the shots it looks all moody and stuff which is cool, but it's all photo effect.
If you just had it all re-painted in a deep metallic blue it'd look f*cking amazing.
RE: Impreza seats and boat vents - Matt - 04-05-2013
Those seats look awesome

Yeah. You need to see it in real life before making that comment, it's looking awesome and menacing
Re: Impreza seats and boat vents - Tyronnster - 05-05-2013
Had a random idea about this car. How about a 4x4 style step to get in it.
Sounds daft but suit it
