Hi guys/girls, its been a while since i have been on here, sorry about that.

the scoupes had a few upgrades here and there since i was here last.

Now i heard a rumor that subaru wrx front bars fit pretty closely on our scoupes.

I remember reading something about it on here ages ago, but i cant find it.

Can anyone shed some light on it for me?

Cheers.

also heres a chop my mate did for me to see how it would look.

I believe you have to cut out somewhere between 6 and 10 inches out of the middle. They are wider.

I now own an Impreza, so if you'd like me to measure anything, let me know specifically what you want measured.

(Mine is the RS, not WRX, bumpers are slightly different, but mounting spots/holes are the exact same... just to clarify.)

Edit: Also, get on youtube! I think someone put a video up on how to do it. :)

Drives: Modified (180 b.h.p.) `95 Hyundai S-Coupe Turbo SE ....Sadly now sold & replaced with an `04 Alfa Romeo 156 2-litre Veloce! :-http://aol.photobox.co.uk/album/thumbnails.html?c_album=7089276&page=all



Contact Bretton Loughlan at Performance Styling Centre (nr. Sydney) for advice: they have everything for Scoupes & supply Australia-wide + internationally.
Google-up their website!.

Your Mk.I (Mitsubishi-powered) Scoupe is based on the original Hyundai Lantra/Elantra (pre- `96) platform......so almost everything from (or for) that car will fit your car.......as will lots of components from old Mitsu. Mirages & the U.S.A. DSM Talons, Eagles etc., engine-wise.

Again, Google for info. on Diamond Star Motors.

Cheers,
Nick. :)

yeah i know PSC, have bought a lot of stuff from them, however, since they owners went their seperate ways, bretton has made it all online, and from previous knowledge, its almost impossible to get in contact with him about buying some of his stuff.

Not to mention they mainly just cater for the latest model hyundais now.
