hmm... an alligator made of carbon fiber. I would like them 10x better. :lol:

Looks much better than the first time you showed it here... I like :wink:

That hood would be 100x's better IMO if the extraction vent was gone!

Yeah, a lot better than when you joined, agreed.

Now that I look again, I agree with badbasser - the WRC style hood doesn't look to be well suited with the rest of the car, which appears to be going for an urban look?

Much cleaner from before. I think the hood looks fine, and the headlights look worlds better.

Looks good. I'm curious though, what was changed from the first time you posted this car?

Nice car man! I see ur from NH, or do you live in mass? Or both? Very interesting hood, i think it makes the car look more agressive, and definitely not a hood you see everyday.. or least around here~!

Thanks. I lived in Southern NH for 16 years then moved about 2 miles away from my first house when I turned 17, which turned into Northern MA b/c my mom got remarried. I lived right on the boarder of NH and MA in the first place.

I guess it is an urban look. I won't be rallying in it :lol: . Has anyone seen a b4 turned into rally spec? Is that a dumb question?

The differences are WRX pedals, WRX seats, WRX front rotors and calipers, clear corners, WRX ebrake, and fidanza short shifter. I think thats it.

How hard was it to put the wrx pedals in? I'm from the central west part of NH myself.. so prolly like an hour from you or something. I wish there was some meets around here or something!

Ya I know. Im in a car club and we go cruising every once in a while, which is always a good time. The pedals sucked... I got the clutch and brake on and it took like 15-20 mins a piece and the accel pedal took like 30 mins, but I love how they look.

Nice, i was checking out the "how to" on installing the wrx pedals. Did you ender up taking the throttle cable off, or just using some wrench or something to give it some slack?

Is a good how-to install wrx pedals, i was thinking about it.. cause i definitely like them over the stock rubber pedals.

I ended up bending the tab on the back just enough to get it on. It cracked a little, but I put some gorilla glue inside the crack and it works great. It flexs to the floor and everything. I wouldnt recommend this though... I got lucky I think (that it didn't completely break off).

I wanted to see how that erebuni hood looks on a legacy :grin: How was the fit on that thing? Did you have to drill some holes underneath and did you cover up the extractor or is it a straight shot to the enginebay? Didn't the front grille fit with the hood or was the mesh just personal preference?

I was thinking of buying one for the TMIC...hmmm

It fits perfect in my opinion. I have seen some bad fitments (mostly on honda's though) too. No holes had to be drilled except where the grill goes. It took me like 5-10 minutes to drill four holes to put my custom grill in. The grill was my personal preferance. I made it out of the stock grill, so I would assume the stock one would fit. Erebuni pics suck of this hood right... When i ordered it I really didn't know what it looked like.
