Its got a lowered rear beam that we've just put on.....will eventually lower it at the front too

craig....pick up the impreza on thursday I think I'm more excited about thursday than when I first ever picked it up I've missed it

Adam....I think all in about £1600...the price picked up a bit more in the end when we had to get a good condition rear beam and then put it in the garage for the brake lines...
still, not too bad

Beardy....yes...it passed with them like that....it was put into the garage to get the brake lines done and valves fitted...they did it so it would get an mot

toot toot...

The suspension will get sorted out in time.... Keep an eye out on flee bay etc.

I really dont understand why you never asked them to just for the one rear line/valve in the end though Just more work in the long run, run run run

would you not just want an 'ideal' setup and leave it at that?
