Simple question, Do Hawkeyes look better with or with out fog light cover??

Nb if they were to go on the car they would be left blank, No STI sticker, as its not an STI

errr.... nope

If they are covers can you not make them into a air flow intake or something.
But then what do I know

fat-thomas

iTrader: (4)

airflow to what??

Jayjay100

Can u not make a air flow intake so the air comes in from the fog light . With a bit of work . Or will that not work . Even if u run a pipe . Or is it a big no . ( it will not work )

Jayjay100

Or is that one has the air intake come from the grill . I am just gessing mate .

fat-thomas

iTrader: (4)

you can im sure, but whether it benefits a standard car i doubt.
but on modified cars it certainly does.

my airfilter is in the drivers side inner wing and oil cooler in passenger side.

what i dont get is he has gone to the trouble of creating an sti rep from a wrx so why not just stick the sti stickers on the fogs too?

Cpt Jack Sparrow

iTrader: (14)

Is it an sti rep? Would that be the rear spoiler that does that?

I simply don't want sti sticker on an WRX

fat-thomas

iTrader: (4)

well sort of it is but i know what you mean i didnt want the sti sticker on an sti so i took them off and recently refitted them due to it looking a bit bland without them

But you want a jdm rear wiper on a WRX?!?

Looks better with them.

Jayjay100

So it can be done. And it make differents . What makes u think my car is standard. As it not now I've got the k&n air filter . Am bidding on the mushroom air filter. It's got 440 jet . Full pipe from manifold.sti handerling park . Full front strut bar . Standard is 240bhp my is running 260bhp . Plus if I was to do the ecu then I would not go past 280/300/ on a car my old no point. But have been told it's one of the nicest wrx by a lot of members that have seen my car . She has not a mark on it
Any way . I have seen the air filter u have got . Do it give u a lot more power or is it just runs better. P.s are not not worried out water getting in.
So the air pipe I was talking about at the front fog can be done. Cool thank u Fat T

Jayjay100

Don't put no stickers on it at all .

That's for a practical reason, simples, no other reason that I like to clear the rear screen when driving.

I would also put folding mirrors on too, not to copy JDM but to stop clowns damaging them in a car park.

fat-thomas

iTrader: (4)

i fitted folding mirrors to mine for that exact reason
its pretty simple to do as well just add two wires to each mirror on newage

Jayjay100

I have a 1994 wrx its got rear wiper and folding mirrors. Did they all not come with them then

Cpt Jack Sparrow

iTrader: (14)

Nice one, it's a job on the list of to do's

fat-thomas

iTrader: (4)

there's a set up for sale somewhere on here, but you need the hawk interior switch which is harder to come by as the older newages have the mirror switch in center console where as the facelift blob/hawk have the switch in door card

Cpt Jack Sparrow

iTrader: (14)

Yeah I've seen a couple of switches come up on here, but no to often.

Not in too much of a rush to be honest, I'll grab them when the next one comes along.

Folding mirrors is a nice touch, I also like the rear screen wiper, hated not having one on my first blob as it's nice to know if plod are on your tail before you boot it, especially on the motorway.

Jayjay100

I like the folding mirrors as parking around my manner is not good . & car do get near to the parked car .
And let's face it if someone hits someone elses mirror are they going to stop if not seen , ( no) let's not even start on going to a car park to do shopping .
The back wiper is handy to have as well .

If it were my car, and aside from any STi 'looky-likey' comments, I think the WRX fog lamps are too useful to be covered up with STi parts purely for cosmetic reasons.

After all it is a WRX, why try and make it look like something it isn't?
Next thing you know you'll be fitting a Spec C roof vent in it. Don't laugh, it's been done

Cpt Jack Sparrow

iTrader: (14)

This is exactly the reason stopping me from doing it....





Can't I just stick a fake one on

Jayjay100

Lol you could put a 22b kit on it .

It's a WRX what's the harm in that. It's still quick . And u can get it up to 300 Bhp plus. & that's a fast road car . At the end of the day it a WRX no sham in that .

Cpt Jack Sparrow

iTrader: (14)

I have no shame at all in it being a WRX, its my daily work horse for commuting 50 miles each way. So it does the job nicely.

If I want an STI I will just go ut an buy one, but I dont......... YET!!

Jayjay100

Good reply .
That's what I think when i want more power and to upgrade I will get a type r .
Or just a 2005 WRX sti .
I only do 6 miles a day 12 in total. It's a grate car to have . I don't think there is any sham in having a WRX . Same as some of the other members go for the uk2000. It's still a Subaru . & when it's your 1st Subaru a WRX is not a bad place to start from .

Jayjay100

Cap jack. I just looked at your pics of your car it's nice mate . You got a nice cleen Subaru there mate .

All good banter . Nice to see
