LFA 68 Report post Posted September 3, 2013 Ok it's been a while since I did anything to the car, largely because I wanted to keep it in a steady reliable state for my Ring trip , a few weeks back. Time to get modding again, and the good news is that the Bilstein B16 Coilovers are now in stock in the UK, so a set is on its way to me as we speak.My car is carrying a few scars now, mostly rubber burns from track debris, but also some paint peeling around the lower front grill.Not sure if this is a quality issue or as a result of the whole lower front being knocked back during a roughish kerb strike at the Ring.I've always respected Subaru Motorsport's efforts at the Nurburgring 24h event, and thanks to Newera parts, I now have a genuine factory sticker, which is lovely, albeit stuck on by a complete ass (me) lol.And the state of play is;Litchfield Ecutek remapMilltek full systemRays CE28 in bronze18x7.5 47 Michelin Pilot Supersport 225 40 18Essex AP Racing Endurance Competition Brake KitSTI flexi tower bar, front splitter, springs, shortshiftDefi gaugesFire extinguisherICEPerrin Oil Cooler ( not yet fitted ) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pitman 188 Report post Posted September 3, 2013 Tada san says that is boring... That is just Toyota marketing speak for "Tada San, we have set the RRP already, and, no there is no room to move to add the cost of a turbo. We will leave that for the aftermarket tuners to do" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
