Did some suspension and brake upgrades to the SpecB

Recommended Posts

Jack and I worked through a late Friday night to finally get some stuff put on my car that has been sitting around. We installed the full Cobb Stage II suspension, which I personally can say is AWESOME. We took the car to the Berkshires last weekend, and the ride was much improved, even with the snow tires.

 

Tonight, we installed the Rotora 4 piston brake kit.. I had a customer who was upgrading to the 6 pistons, so I got them from him for a great price.. And a much needed upgrade from the stock brakes. Luckily, I my snow tires are made for an 04 STi, so they clear the winter wheels, unluckily, they do not clear my stock wheels.. So what did I do? I called my boys down at Fizz ordered up a set of nice Volks to finish the car off. Rims should be here next week, but we're going to wait to get them installed till the roads clean up.

 

I can finally enjoy driving my own damn car now.. Soon I'll be doing a downpipe and exhaust, but that's later.

Calipers look pretty good. What Volks did you go with?

 

I went with the G-Game 77 in Gunmetal. 18x8 +42.. They are two piece with a polished lip.. Wasn't my first choice, but I got them for a price I couldn't refuse.

Is it even possible to upgrade a Spec B? :lol:

 

After taking the car for a ride last night, it's amazing how crappy the stock brakes really are. Now I'm contemplating doing a 4 piston rear set, just to have when I go on some HPDE events.

Wheels came in, just did a quick test fit to make sure everything works.. They match the paint so nice..

The RE01-R's came in yesterday.. So we had the tires mounted and did a test fit... I love them, they fit nice, and they match the paint nicely.. (Clean Paint).

 

It pained me to put the snow tires back on..
