JDM WRX STI 'Hawkeye'

[EF Ian]

It's the road into Sligo from Enniskillen. Most of the journey there is decent and further west after Sligo there are some great roads. Ballysadare on to Dromore West is my favourite, could go back and forward on it all day.

Will make a note to head that way once the RBZ is back on the road.

Some more photo spam. Just been driving it and finally got it undersealed. Went for a clear underseal.

I did it myself. Spent a few days cleaning it then stored it for a week to dry up then applied the underseal. Used Dynax UC as recommended by @Burt2000

Didn't get any pics as it's a messy enough job.

Easy enough applied?

Easy enough applied?

Yep it's handy enough to spray on. It's just getting everything cleaned and prepped for application. It's never fully 'dry' but I left the car for a few days after too.

As Sonny says the car needs to be properly cleaned, degreased and dry. And if there’s rust then it’s pointless to use it. Works well on jdm stuff that is rust free underneath or Didn’t come with any factory sealant at all! The likes of your Audi would be well sealed with the thick stuff already so probably wouldn’t need it unless you want a little extra protection. The spray cans are handy but it goes on pretty watery so needs light coats built up.

More spam:

Socially distant Subaru run back in November

And through MOT this evening.

Prep consisted of a once over from @Wild Thing and a wash. Nothing needed done mechanically. Rear fog had previously been installed to the rear light cluster on first import it seems. Didn't bother with a dual reading speedometer or the stupid hose trickling water over the headlights and went through

Hoping for the same myself. I've dual reading but no headlight washers

More spam and some updates.

Got lost going for milk the other day..

Cracked the splitter a while back so ordered a new one

Fitted up today.

Bit the bullet and bought the reg I've been looking at for years. @Neil@rockvale made the plates up but just waiting on the documents before assigning it.

Waiting on another package to arrive to hopefully sort the lack of noise

 

[Big Pimp]

Fantastic dude! Your car is getting better and better with each mod

 

[EF Ian]

Looking great as always.

 

[Sonny]

@mcmurray very kindly polished the jdmyo yellow headlight for me.

 

[Tufty]

I love all these wee bits your doing as Ross mentioned you are bettering the car with all the wee bits your doing.

Love the plate as all.

 

[Sonny]

Plate assigned today

Was switching the reg with insurance and noticed they had the car listed as a Mini Impreza WRX STI... Not sure how that happened!

Finally got the exhaust fitted, Hayward and Scott Afterburner Vortex.

Sounds absolutely mental in cabin. It's loud but not enough to be annoying.

 

[Lappintyre]

Love it. Had one on my Type R Impreza, they sound brilliant but not daft like a Nur Spec

 

[Sonny]

Gave the car a once win the summer with a full decontamination wash and machine polish. Then proceeded to put many miles on it. Been all along the west coast and through Donegal this year. Technically a show winning car now too
