New 13" Wheels from a Honda

[sasquatch]

yeah, that's why i have my driving light relay triggered by the high beam. They have an on/off switch but the main control is through the main beam stalk. that way i have quick access. On my WRX i had my driving lights hooked up to the OEM fog light switch. it was horrible! When driving through my local canyons I'd be fumbling for the switch, turning on the cruise control and finally turning them off after oncoming traffic passed. So now both cars have driving lights triggered by the high beam stalk. Also a reason why i haven't gone with HID driving lights. I'm always having to flip them on and off and that doesn't work well or is good for the ballasts.

ya i want to wire mine in to the high beam switch but im to lazy lol... but my switches have red LED's on the end so i know whick ones are on and they are easy to find too follow the light... lol

nice WRX scoop on your car!

Here's mine:

Here's mine in Street trim



Rally trim



And how it was found when it was stolen, wrecked, stripped and totaled. Just put new suspension on it too!

Serious serious drag. Sorry to hear that. At least they left you with your headlights and your wheels. I'm on NASIOC, mostly, as "Arnie" in the suspension forum.

It shouldn't be toooo bad. You might even be able to get away with daisy chaining all your relays to one relay wired to the high beam wire. Seriously, you just need to tap into the high beam wire at the headlight. Its just triggering the relay so you don't have to worry if its getting enough juice.

ya i have 3 relays conrtolling them so i just need to get the power off of the high beam switch to turn on he relays when the high beams are on... it would be easy but... im lazy...

and thats one sweet subaru i love them, they look so cool and sound AMAZING!!! it sucks that is got striped tho

Sorry for going of topic but here's another of my WRX, this is how it looked when I bought it.



And after about a week, it looked like this. I got bit by the rally bug :p

[sasquatch]

^ OOOooo heck ya!!! that looks sweet even rally and street trim lol

[Arnie]

I don't mind. Did you make your light bar?

[Arnie]

Weird, did a test fit of the Honda wheels onto the front axle and they rubbed on the lower clevis of the coilover. Nothing a spacer wouldn't fix but I can't say I expected this. 40 ET rim, 5" wide.

[BUSTIVA]

Thats is weird, especialy in the front. And yes I made my light bar.

[sasquatch]

ya my slicks have so little room down by the strut mount i cant even put wheel weights there... as soon as the wheel turns it would take them off lol...

I love the rally look, I have been into rally racing since I first played gt2.

[Arnie]

But the tires are not mounted. Its just the bare wheel. I'll take a pic tomorrow. The inside of the wheel is contacting the strut. Just underneath the inner lip. I'm wondering if these coilovers were designed for a 14" wheel. Meaning that the size of the clevis was not designed around 13" wheels. I think its taller than stock. Wish i kept my front struts but they were totally blown. Ergh.

just a small update

got the brakes and axle and bushings on. need to figure out the deal with the wheel. otherwise i have a lead on miata daisy wheels with tires. so that is also an option.

Brakes, swaybar bushings, control arm bushings. All in "go fast" red. Easily worth 25hp! Now to add some stickers for an additional 25hp.

[sasquatch]

that looks good i painted mine up red too, i didnt get 25hp tho
