New to here- Just bought GT STI MY08

  Top of Page

hey all just wanna say hi to all of you !!!

My new car is being delivered this tuesday and i cant wait !!!

Is there any tips u guys wanna give me in regards to maintaining the car or any issues u guys have had?

Also, if there is anyone here who wants to buy the enkei rims that come standard with it, i am considering buying some carbon rims since i dont relaly like the look of the enkei standard ones, bear in mind they are special edition enkei 18inchs lol.. i will wait till i see how it looks on my car then make up my mind !!

Hey there mate, welcome to Ozliberty.

The GT STi rims are very much sought after among the liberty owners.
I strongly suggest you do some research and find the going rate.

Stick around, and post up some pictures when you can!

Cheers, Soop.

yah will do mate.. going to take some nice ones when i get it hehehe.. my friends already lining up to come and see it lol !!!

when i was at the dealers i asked them whether they had any stock of my07 sti gt carbon rims and they said that i had to probably pay like 800$ / rim extra and i'm like.. wtf lol...

i bought the auto version since i drive alot everyday lol, i heard that they tweaked the auto for the STi version.. is that correct? lol...

the biggest issue is that i relaly cant seem to find much that tells me how the manual version is diff to the auto version performancewise, some sites show that my07 sti gt has got more power in its manual form but then it doesnt say otherwise officially.. anyone know much about that?

Main selling point for the new STi Liberty's was that auto was pretty much equal with manual performance. Plus you have SI and SI#. It's a gift from god, gives you a burst when you want to pass that truck on the highway or drag the hoon at the lights, but not economical sad.

And yeah STi's come modded already, only things I would suggest is aesthetics (like your carbon rim idea), little JDM kit up-grades, HKS BOVs (piercing sound), 3" exhaust, maybe shaving?? Shave is expensive but the other ones are moderately priced.

Welcome anyway mate, hope you like your new weapon.

welcome aboard mate, congrats on the new ride. What colour car/rim combo did you get? Plenty of these going around now and plenty of mods for them as well. I have owned mine of 12 months now and I am very happy with it.

black obsidian pearl and the ones that came with car, 18' silver special edition enkeis, they look good enough with the black brembos so i didnt have to get anything else for em..

prob dont need much modding/tuning of it anymore as it is already modded and tuned to a degree from factory smile

good choice on the OBP mate, once you black you never go back! With mods you might want to consider an air filter change and resonator-ectomy to assist breathing. Pretty cheap mod and def one I recommend.
