Yeah good call :) I've learnt that lesson all greased up with silicone grease spray these are the genuine STI ones, was hoping was plastic on the threads but looks to be alloy, it says coated in some metal.

Few more additions for weekend. STI Valve caps (Japan parts) STI Radiator cap Cusco brake stopper STI Security nuts (marketplace) Was pretty stoked with STI lug nuts, I've had them on wish list but couldn't warrant the cost, found these second hand on trade-me for a steal. They are nice...

Unfortunately after more research I'm gonna have to remove. nz regulations around them to tight.. To get certified I have to lock car of from any future modifications. Will be looking for better offset rims :(

OK update on this I'm gonna scrap the idea The cert process is pretty nuts in nz, was going be to be very costly and when it gets certified all mods on car are locked in photos taken of eveything. You won't be able to add or change anything without be re certified. Car is an ongoing...

Thanks for clarifying bit of a bummer cars are never really " finished" Will have to look into better offset wheels thrn rather than spacers :)

Hi I just enquired about a cert for some spacers and they told me if I get certed that I basically cant make any changes to the car, even swapping wheels is not an option did they tell you this as well or am i getting incorrect info ?

Hey mate Ive been looking at various suspension options as well I'm on KYB levorg shocks and was considering some STI springs. The common advice on here is to get coilovers, but being in NZ resident the Cert rules are killer for adjustable suspension. I just looked into getting 15mm spacers...

those wheels are awesome how was shipping from America ?

only way i could fix was to swap to the three rotary dial climate controls, its a straight swap plugs are the same I bought from beforward Iapan but depending on your location try wreckers. Impreza controls will also fit opens up more options

I have purchased some 15mm Hub centric spacers and they seem to work great I have added pics in my build thread will try and arrange later in the year

.... Cont I decided to try some hub centric 15mm ones to see how they go and i was really happy with the results, make the car look much tougher. The 15mm will give me a +40 offset As you can see the stock nuts stick out a fair bit and I was worried they would not let the wheel sit flush...

Some updates over the last few months had some unexpected issues with tyres, got a puncture that pretty much ripped entire rim off the wheel, luckily was on a straight piece of road and pulled over quickly. being a JDM no spare so had to get a tow. 4 new tyres later and much poorer mods have...

Here are some additional pdf files from NZTA LVVTA to do with spacers if anyone is interested I have purchased 2x 15mm hub centric "adaptors" that fit to the hub and will give them a try see what it looks like and make sure bolts don't foul on the wheel

dude.....nice work that's allot of mods good luck with sale

That's NZD and i over estimated, 400-500Nzd I've been told new set of rims would be 2 or 3 times that here easily unfortunately

Hi all well might have just opened a can of worms... Just got some new tyres and had a wheel alignment and balance was probably just me but the wheels seem more in the guard now. I bought some el-cheapo spacers online just to have a play to see what it would look like with a change of offset...
