Bret, Ive just looked at the other pics of the banded wheels as i didn't know you had done them, they look ace, though would think 7" on front/rears would been better instead of 7.5 on rears..
Also i do think your old wheels some how suited it more, but these are just as good, and dude please ditch "some" of them tacky stickers, i have a hatred of all these "scenesteers" euro cars going round my area, it's not a look that works for all..
Although i still love your SR, one of the best..

That black thing on the previous page looks like it had a proper whack! black snowplough SR's are really sweet IMO. A friend used to have one, he bought it in the dark, it was rotten as a pear. That replaced a D reg Red SR he did similar to (massive side impact into a very old tree) & wrote off in style.

Looks proper original that Scott, don't see many around looking totally OE.
What kit did you use to lower it? Was expecting the car to sit a tad lower when I read it's lowered 40mm. My one is supposed to be 30mm but sits a tad lower than yours :confused:

05-07-10, 12:02 AM
Ahh right Apex springs. I wonder how much the springs I fitted have actually lowered my car, as like I said mine are meant to be 30 but look as low or lower then yours which are 40.
Wonder if all manufacturers measure the difference in the same way.

looks nice, needs a mk 1 rear bumper tho imo
theythinkitsallnova
05-07-10, 02:08 PM
thats how i bought the car, not had a chance to spend any money on it yet. its just a 1.2 8v at the moment, dont really wanna touch the outside much but def considerin a conversion so its a bit quicker but at the same time its perfect for a daily driver if a monster impreza ends up back in my driveway. lol
Nova_Tek
05-07-10, 02:22 PM
Seriously mate, I'd keep this as a daily as it is. Just get the right MK1 rear bumper, give them a good clean and paint with mid-grey and paint the drums in black. Then you'll have yourself a lovely motor.
theythinkitsallnova
05-07-10, 03:22 PM
i've been offered a gsi engine, box loom, ecu and shafts for 150quid. ohh the decisions, lol.

You'll find one easy enough if you put up a wanted advert (obviously in the wanted section) ;) Would look best with the GTE rear bumper IMO.

05-07-10, 03:49 PM
cheers, i was having a wee look at rear bumpers there and i agree with you that a gte bumper would suit it best mate, cheers
Nova_Tek
05-07-10, 03:55 PM
You could probably get a MK1 SR bumper for about £20 mate. You may even be lucky and get a GTE one for that price (like I did lol)
But turst us, it'll finish off the cars looks.
That 1.6 transplant sounds a bargain and a sure way to get a decent power and performance upgrade with minimum hassle.

Exactly how I feel. I really disliked (hate is a strong word) white GTE's too as they were ten a penny. Funny how things change. I'll never lust after a dodgy trimmed mk1 with matching Green, Terracotta or whatever interior trim though.
