oobster Posted May 14, 2006 Share Posted May 14, 2006 Think he got a brand-new hawkeye - get sum photies up! Link to comment
st3ph3n Posted May 14, 2006 Share Posted May 14, 2006 Don't rag the hell out of it for the first 1K whilst it's on the run-in oil. There's many schools of thought as to whether going over 4K should be done or not though. Link to comment
thewelsho Posted May 15, 2006 Author Share Posted May 15, 2006 Hi Alan I got the 06 WRX with the STi spoiler. I tried putting some foties up, but it wouldn't work. I never got any really good ones anyway, too busy driving around! I'll take some more this week and hopefully get them up. St3ph3n I have been going over the 4k rev mark, but not for long and certainly not red-lining it. Difficult to practice restraint with all that power at the right foot! I had a Celica 04 and the difference is night and day! I knew it woudl be faster, but i ever expected this! J Link to comment
thewelsho Posted May 15, 2006 Author Share Posted May 15, 2006 Should be working now... Pics of the new car: Link to comment

andy Posted May 15, 2006 Share Posted May 15, 2006 The more I see of it the more it's growing on me. Wasn't convinced to start with. Link to comment
thewelsho Posted May 15, 2006 Author Share Posted May 15, 2006 My car in particular (Silver wheels, STi spolier!), or the 06 shape in general? J Link to comment

thewelsho Posted May 15, 2006 Author Share Posted May 15, 2006 Ha! You got me worried there! When I look at pics of the older model, Iam pretty torn between the two. I guess it jsut takes time to get used to it. J Link to comment
mctwistuk Posted May 15, 2006 Share Posted May 15, 2006 nice looking car you have there. hawk eye is growing on me. Link to comment
thewelsho Posted May 15, 2006 Author Share Posted May 15, 2006 Thanks! Nice car indeed, but the interior pretty much sucks! Must be the cheapest grade plastics used for the switches and centre console - ach well, can't have it all, can we? oobster said something about a Hawkeye as well, I'm now guessing that is the shape of the headlamps!
