no mods as of yet, think a desk jockey in perth owned, high milage had no exhaust or anything, done exhaust myself and wheels so far, havent owned to long, just had whole new rear end fitted and respray to left side and rear due an accident.
dunno what mods to start with?
wheres the pics with monster energy stickers?

no stickers anymore lol, went for the clean tidy look, and you know about stickers how lol?
best decision you ever made mate!
with mods the best things to do are turbo back exhaust, cold air intake, fuel pump and a tune
then you can look at upgrading turbo, intercooler, injectors etc

by upgrading bigger turbo i need to do engine work at the same time right other wise boom???

Nah they are a bit tougher than that, do turbo at the same time as exhaust as it's half the job done when doing exhaust, nice platform to start mods mate :) good luck with the rest

Great performance Mod!!

It'll be fine unless you decided to do 6k rpm launches and smash gears everywhere you drive.

MBC I'd say.
Sorry to hear about the blow-out. Build tough and drive it hard or keep stock & maintain... be soft so to speak.

22-06-2011, 04:50 PM
STechnic says sti block and other bits and pieces for just under 8k fitted??
or second hand engine 180kms for 4000 fitted
ill have 10k to spend on repairs, soo dunno what to doo
get a new engine.
no point buying 2nd hand with such a high budget and you never know how long the replacement engine will last.
wrxclubspec07
22-06-2011, 05:11 PM
well that 8k for sti 207 block is all new parts
How many km on the stock motor?

ej207 if you want to keep the car, and drive it hard in future
yeh thats what im getting ej207 and there doing all new water pumps etc,
180 000kms on the stock 2nd hand motor
Op whats you plans with the extra cash, go nuts now so much easier when engine's out.
wrxclubspec07
22-06-2011, 08:10 PM
well should have couple k spare,, dunno what to use it on, was thinkin some sound but then again someone told me to upgrade turbo to a v34 or something? hard choice
wrxclubspec07
22-06-2011, 08:21 PM
wasnt worth it but won two out of the 4 events at west coast commodores track day barbagello, salom and go to whoa, got held up behind this silver clubby on my timed lap so fail and didnt do burnout comp lol

An ej207 wont magically make your car any quicker. Yes spend the extra cash on a VF34. Get a retune while you're at it too.

New engine going in now. Only done 20k on clock

Invest in a tune to stop further Dakdak booming!

Remove the window sticker and lower it. Didn't bother putting a new turbo in?

22-09-2011, 05:06 AM
nah not of yeh, done the cheap way out to keep the car runing as i needed for work, im going to buy a separate motor and start working on it, when its done put it in.
also looking at getting some nice offset rims and coilovers.
yeh the sticker lol, well atleast its the only sticker on the car, otherwise its clean and tidy debadged etc.
i left the clubspec sticker but i just changed the colour scheme. once i get new wheels ill change it back to the yellow or may leave it off

Surprised you didn't pop a gearbox.
Also stickers are well gay.
lol, stickers, china wheels and a 14.2, definitely worthy of the hotness thread.

http://i52.tinypic.com/2crq4x2.jpg
i thought konig's where american?? so how does that make them china wheels??
besides i didn't pay for them, better than stock... they'll do until i can get a hold of some offsets
goes in next week for super lows all round
but when i get offset rims ill probably need to raise it again ??
