Dropped the car off at Ai Autosport today so as long as he doesn't ring me saying its a ball of dung and needs thousands thrown at it I plan to be indeed.

If you intend to drive it properly, leave it standard and just get a fast Road setup done by Ali Burrows.

Mine would still bottom out on back roads, would have been hateful lowered .
Exactly this. I would never lower an impreza. Have fun beating higher powered cars over the back roads. lol

Would set up properly sitting a bit nose down on bc racing coilovers not be the best set up @Artoir? Had a bit of a chat with OMA and that's what they were suggesting.

Tbh that sort of stuff is a right while away anyways.

Michael has his on track and Hillclimbs though remember. Down to what you want it for though at the end of the day. I had mine to tear up the back roads.

Pretty much the same, will see how it pans out. Only had it a few days so I'll just be enjoying it for a while, drives like nothing I've had before so I'm happy with it for now.

Sure prodrive lowered them :p

OMA done my geo setup and it's sweet as a nut on the road, saying that the prodrive Bilsteins made the biggest difference made the front much more complient on our roads imo

Nice car and plates @Neil@rockvale. Like a set with same size/font for mine (would VKZ 5939 fit a smaller plate without looking sh1te). I presume that font isn't strictly legal but you'll never get bother like some others?

Thanks. So far so good with the plates @J_Mc_G, has been less than a week though. Neil will sort you with good plates whatever way you want them, good as in proper reflective material unlike others.

@Jonny1992 maybe so, Mallusk?

The car had a visit to Ai Autosport for a bit of a service and general health check which I'm pleased to report back was all good.

Oil change
Oil filter
Iridium plugs
New fan belts
Coolant change
Knocking rear end greased for now to I decide if I'm going to go coilover route or not

Next up 2 front tyres and new discs and pads all round.

Thanks @AIRFORCE1 for the excellent service and quick turnaround.

Glad to hear it all went well mr, I can also give a plus one for the OMA suspension alignment. When i had the STI shocks and springs they transformed the car but it is on another level now with the BC's in it - absolutely glued to the road!
