post-a221468-WRP10.jpg

(emailed to me this morning)

“Don't leave a rare WRP10 WRX (only 200 imported into Aus) on display without locking wheel nuts. Actually, probably should have kept it inside and moved a couple of i30s outside for the time you had it.”

For the locals who know how close this is to the police station... and their workshop / hangout.... it is kind of embarrassing.

the badge is just behind the front wheel Nick,

nice find Steve, heres an interesting bit of trivia for you all as i work for Subaru.

WRP10 wheels (rays engineering) $1,193 each, yes each! w/o tyres...

oh and we sell lock nut too $114 :D

gee thats gotta suck!

I concur.

However I am torn between the hilarity and awe at the utter boldness, and sick feeling I get when people find it in themselves to do stuff like this.

Insurance or not - I have been on the recieving end such dog acts. It is an awful thing.

Bold, very bold.

However, it's still quite the dog act.

we had the same thing hapen when i was working at another subaru dealer, i dont know if anyone remembers the liberty blitzen, anyway they were a limeted run and they were all bright red, with big expensive wheels.

the salesman who went to move it one morning didnt know what was wrong when he put it in gear but the car wouldnt move... he got out of the car and quickly discovered the problem...

well if anyone finds a set of WRP10 wheels going cheap, be sure to check the data dots. they will be sprayed on the inside of each wheel. :D

Credit where credit is deserved.

Exactly!

Those WRP10 wheels arent the best rims subaru have released though, why would you bother? Try and find one of the late model STi's with the enkei style/multispoke ones that look like blitz technospeeds

    • ooooooh so this is where they get posted  Was at a wedding that day anyway, but the next one I will be there for SURE.
    • @PranK, why do we have this restriction? Because photos are the first thing that gets asked of new people on the forums. Do the spam bots post photos if allowed?
    • How do you rate the clutch @joshuaho96? Sometimes I wonder whether it's genuinely very driveable or whether I just feel that way because it cost a good chunk of money. Most recently when seeing the guy at the tyre shop struggle to move the car...
    • Is it possible to get your turbo high flowed that is capable of 270kw and cap it off at 220kw for example via a boost controller?
    • I will say most technicians aren't the best, then they see a Skyline and it seems like their brains start oozing out of their ears. But actual good techs that knew what they were doing to begin with I don't see them having any issues with this car. And it doesn't attract that much attention. But if you were wondering what it's like to be an attractive woman, driving an RHD Skyline in the US is pretty much as close as it gets in terms of endless male attention. Random people will strike up conversations with you at gas stations, at mechanics, etc. List goes on. When I do alignments for any car I never leave it overnight. I bring it in same day and usually just mill around outside the shop because I can't be bothered to call a taxi to go somewhere for 30 minutes only to get another taxi back.
