Farewell To My Hawkeye Sti


Recommended Posts

:crying::crying:

Well after 5 great years I said farewell to my Hawkeye STI last weekend, she was Impreza No.7 for me and has been a great car. No doubt at times I will miss her and I know the next owner is getting a cracking low mileage car. (although the WRC spoiler was swapped back to the original STI one and I understand the WRC graphics are coming off )

Here she is or was:

A big thanks to John at S&S once again for putting together another superb deal. :icon_salut:

Never have been a 'graphics' fan but the hawk looks sharp, especially in Blue.

Do you mind me asking why you never lowered it? I have a Hawk WRX and still wondering if I'm going to go down the route of lowering springs. If I did it would only be minimal due to the state of our British roads.

On previous STi Type UK and current WRX hawk, have had Prodrive spring kit fitted. Only lowers by 25mm but transformed handling of the WRX - no bounce and much sharper all round!

I've never bothered lowering any of the Imprezas I've had and genrally happy with them in standard set-up. I did get fast road geometry on this car and it did make a difference. If I'd kept it I might have eventually put some whiteline bushes etc on it.
