  5. thanks for all the replys everyone.ive managed to get my hands on a nice roll cage from a one make series race car:). is it worth the extra effort to have it welded in or should i just bolt it in?
  6. ive seen quite a few impreza's being used by undercover cops.kinda easy to spot though cause they remove the factory wing
  7. is it just the european model thats porked up? i remember reading ages ago that the new type R was supposed to be significantly lighter than the old one
  8. cheers.no worry about the ceramic wheel either.its a suzuki kei:) i was just worried about it cooking the oil cause it was so hot
  9. as the title says.popped the bonnet after a good fang round the mountain and the exhaust manifold,turbo exhaust housing and about 10 cm of the dump pipe were glowing red.is it athing to worry about?
  10. yeah, im interested in if its a viable option instead of a roll cage.any tried it on a car without a cage?
  11. Heres a link to one of the companys that do urethane injection. you basically drill some holes in your side sills and b pillars and pour in the mixture that hardens inside and stiffens up the chassis. these guys sell it for 19000yen and another 50000 to 60000yen for putting it in your car, or you can DIY but if you make a mistake while putting it in the sills it is impossible to remove. All the positive reviews ive read are from people who've used it and had success. All the negative reviews are from people that havent tried but point out all the things that could potentially go wrong with it
  12. anyone tried urethane injection in the side sills? intereted in doing it to my car but would like to hear if anyones had any positive or negative experiences.

  16. have you driven here? the roads are soooooo bloody narrow.half the time i can barely fit down em and I drive a kei car. And on the roads that are "normal" width the majority of people cant seem to stay in their lane anyway
