Hey mate, I think you will be fine with LED for non headlights, as long as you dont go brighter or a different color. I have replaced halogen to LED on all my cars in the past, number plate lights and fogs etc.. and never had an issue. They mostly just want to stop ppl stuffing HID kits into...

Dude this fitment looks awesome well done :) Im looking at similar 18x9.5 but with +40 offset, NZ is pretty strict with any protrusion of tyre tread. From your photo doesnt look like any tread is outside the guard on the rear has the front got a bit outside ? I wont be as low as you will be a...

Haha whoops sorry I read Nelson instead of Napier for some reason. Cheers mate.

Welcome Fellow South Islander :) car looks very nice

I have a friend based in Japan, got them direct from HKS They weren't too bad, I think was $1200 ish shipping was close to $300 though

This was the one I ordered for my Levorg and added idoing https://autoparts.beforward.jp/detail/Cooling-Components/A-C---Heater-Control-panels/PA85179991/

I wouldn't risk it higher H8 is designed for higher wattage H16 isnt... see more info here

Decided i need a spare tyre, the glue and compressor isn't going to cut it. Sourced a stock levorg 18" wheel and same tyre size as my current rims (just not as wide) Fits perfectly in the wheel well. Have ordered a fixing screw online so it will pass warrant. Thought I would make my own...

Thanks man yeah Ive been reading you post very helpful :) Agree with you, after researching all and speaking to certifiers just not worth it for spacers in NZ, will look at wheels options. Rabbit hole though so hard to pick a wheel style :) Was chatting on the Facebook certifiers group and...

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...
