    • Ok, Success! The BG5 Teins are perfect - i put new top mounts on them and thoroughly cleaned out the threads on the adjustment part, set them to half way on the dampers and wow its a night and day different to the GC8 shock&spring combo, can go over speed bumps without the loud t hump from the front and can turn corners hard without bottoming out the shock (wheel used to rub the inner body )   Had to make some brackets for the ABS line  Overall the the springs are set a tad low from whoever owned them last so ill wind them up next time i get a chance So in total ive spent close to $2000 trying to lower the front without going fully adjustable End result is i ended up going fully adjustable haha - but learned alot about spring rates and shock dampening !   Ill go back and update my post where I said GC8 shocks and springs fit in a BC5 - they fit yes, but - they suck because they are too weak for the BC5
    • I got a STI Duracon one out of Japan while the yen was swirling around the toiletbowl, as well as a few other STI option parts. Nice upgrade from the slightly peeling leather one.
    • Found a set of BG5 Tein front struts! Getting so hard to find parts for these old cars fingers crossed they fit the Bc5 and they are better suited for the weight than the gc8 springs 
    • Fitted new gear knob not as nice as OEM one but leather stitching was falling apart. top writing on Chinese is directly printed on plastic. OEM one writing in on a layer covered by clear plastic. oem one also far heavier as metal core.
    • These alarms are configured by connecting a USB cable and using a laptop. If your installer wasn't a p**** (coin-toss) the alarm brain will be a complete **** to get to. If they were a p**** it will probably be zip-tied about an inch above your steering column. Even if you can find it, you need the installer software, which AVS don't make publicly available because of AVS reasons.
