That is on my plans. I want front 4pots and raer 2 pots.

deadlydave
04-30-2008, 12:43 PM
The 4-pots look rather small on 18's, just to let you know. They were swallowed by my v7 17's, but that might just be the huge space behind the spokes to accomodate brembos.

You might want to look into stop-tech or another aftermarket solution. The OEM parts new are the same amount as some of the larger kits from them. You'd also need an adapter for the rear 2-pots, that's why i kept my stock H6 rears.

i wonder why subaru designed the rear windows to stop halfway like that?? :-?

DLC
05-29-2008, 11:32 PM
...because they can't roll all the way down.

The only way they could roll down the whole way is if the door was wide enough to fit the glass, and that would require the wheel to be farther back, which would require the car to be longer, etc...

That's why.

Also: Looks great!

i love the 04 seats and ironically almost all the things i have been planning on doing to my car you're doing on a live thread which is awsome. i was just wondering did you wire in the 04 seats to have the factory heated option or was it too hard to wire in so you just bolted the seats in and drove?

Mine did not come heated. The problems I had putting the seats were I had to re use my old seat belt buckels and I had to buy 4 covers for the rear seat rails.

I just installed a 4th Oh Shit Handle on my ride. It was a pain in the ass. It took me about 3 hours to do. I have to use a right front mounting bracket and modify it for the driver side. But now I have a hadle to hold on too. I have it set almost 100%. I still have to do a little twicking to set it how I want to. :wink: This was something way harder then it looks.
