You should touch up your power steering canister and the belt cover, because you have a really clean engine bay and those are the only things not sparkling.
What are your plans?

In a couple of months I'm going to lower the car. Lowering springs, struts. Future plans are front and rear strut bar, sway bars, complete exhaust, brake up grades, and many more things. I known need to paint those things! :wink: The engine is dirty and so is the car. I need to clean it up.

51mm the rear rub on the struts. I have to put spacers in the back. So I only had them on to take pics. the car is going to the body shop to get the nose sprayed. I did not want to send the car with the wheels on so when it comes back i'll take care of the issue.

in refrence to the power steering pump... i just recently sprayed mine flat black, while on the car. i used a bunch of fender covers to cover the engine after i prepped the power steering pump. and repainted the metal and plastic using alumin. colored engine paint, and high temp clear coat. all bought at the auto parts store. it took a few hours and was worth it. if you want check it out in the pics i posted in another post in this section of the forum.

You have to modify it a bit. The holes dont line up. They have to be slotted. The STI badge is just laying in there. I want to put it in the back of the car somewhere.

I sanded both the headers and cat. I did 2 coats of heat paint and then wrap them with thermo tech wrap. After that i did 2 coats on top of the wrap. It took me a week to prepare both. It was al worth it at the end. :wink:

direct fit right? no need for switching tophats..
The top hats had to be switched over. The legacy brake lines are different too. That is why I bought WRX stainless steel brake lines. :wink:

You have to swap the top hats from left to right. The LGT brake lines go threw the strut on the LGT. On the WRX they bolt on the front and clip in the rear. No big deal because I have the stainless steel brake lines.
