scooby222 Posted January 25, 2010 Share Posted January 25, 2010 (edited) big thanks to the big man for de tangoing my lights at the weekend, kept thinking it cant be that hard but yes it can especially with random connections unplugging themselves! made a huge difference to the cars nose and hopefully he only snapped the one embarrassing pic of me....

scooby222 Posted February 25, 2010 Author Share Posted February 25, 2010 pics at last, detango is such a worthwhile mod on blobs! and a pic of my new godspeed discs ,oooo shiny! Link to comment
wrxmania Posted February 25, 2010 Share Posted February 25, 2010 (edited) Detango looks great. I'd like to change the indicator bulbs in the hatch light to silver ones but it's a beast of a job getting the lights out etc... Brian Edited February 25, 2010 by WRXMANIA Link to comment
BalliSTIc Posted February 25, 2010 Share Posted February 25, 2010 and a pic of my new godspeed discs ,oooo shiny! My discs look like that too... although I suspect mine is just rust *chuckle* Lookin' good Dave... but... ... new shirt to match? (C'mon, SOMEONE had to chip in there! *chuckle*) Lemme know how the discs are... might be considering an uprate. My OEMs are cr*p with EBC yellows! Link to comment
cullenmin Posted February 25, 2010 Share Posted February 25, 2010 Its an improvement to the front. Can you get them smoked though as that would look even better on the WR Blue with your dark alloys? Rich Link to comment
rio180 Posted February 25, 2010 Share Posted February 25, 2010 VERY nice, looks good. Link to comment
scooby222 Posted February 25, 2010 Author Share Posted February 25, 2010 yea Kev that and HID's are yet another benefit of JDM looked at painting round the reflectors Rich but it took most of a day as it was!!! maybe when im really bored sometime.... hmm, car co ordinated shirts could be the future,cheers Glyn so far not amazed by them,would say theyre fade free but dont seem to offer much more stopping power- when funds allow will definitely be looking to different calipers either ksports or something more exotic... the godspeeds were half the cost of any other 2 piece and i dont see anything wrong with the quality,be interesting to try performance frictions or dba's to see though Link to comment
scouk Posted February 25, 2010 Share Posted February 25, 2010 Nice! Funny how small changes make a big difference to a car.. Looks much sharper at the front! Youll have to start looking up those HiD's next What pads are you running at the mo? My rears were replaces with Ferodo DS2500's last year and a set of cheapo grooved discs and boy what a difference! Got black diamond pads and discs on the front.. When I changed them not much difference.. Will be looking to swap the fronts out for DS2500's next time.. It's been the first time I'd actualyl had faith in the impreza brakes! Was looking at upgrading to APRacing calipers but going to try the DS2500's all round first! Even with standard WRX 4 pots..

Rheid Posted February 26, 2010 Share Posted February 26, 2010 Detango looks great.I'd like to change the indicator bulbs in the hatch light to silver ones but it's a beast of a job getting the lights out etc... Brian To put silver bullbs in the hatch you only have to remove the rear lights - lift the tailgate and there's 2 bolts each side, undo and then simply pull light cluster straight back. The fronts are accessible by going in through the wheel arch - you only have to release the front of the arch liner and gently bend out the way, 3 clips each side IIRC. Literally no more than a 10 min job for each end. Link to comment
