hey woody

so my mechanic says that hawaii's club has meetings and what not every friday or sat nights? How do I get into the scene... my suby has only one mod ( for now lol ) and its an upgraded air intake. I am thinking minor mods with the biggest bang so to speak so il just tune it and prob put in better wires and reprogram it....

Has anyone ever heard of Rom Raider? and good bad indifferent?

There's a post in the forum for this friday's meat; it'll be at the airport starbucks (off nimitz)

read around on nasioc about romraider, there's a really good thread on tuning options - feel free to ask all at the meat too; lots of people running the cobb ap for it's simplicity, but its all up to you!

ill leave this section for the noob intros haha

I'm a noob. My name is Justin. I just picked up a 2012 swp wrx hatch about 3 weeks ago. I used to work with Shaggy before he went to Waialae. I'm the Subaru Mapunapuna lot guy. Look forward to meeting everyone and modding eventually.

Howzit. I'm the new noob. 1st post. LoL.........

2003 WRX. Got it in 2006. Did a 04 STI swap right away. Then, in 2008 I did a full version 8 JDM STI swap. Twin scroll EJ207 Engine and ECU, 6MT with dccd, full driveline, rear diff, axles and struts.

Just been my daily driver sense then. Its kinda fast. Could use a tune.........

Laterz.

what’s up, latest nOOb on the scene my name is Josh. This is my second WRX. This one is a 04 limited, which I’m told is hard to find and is rare. This one was sitting at Mapunapuna servco for a minute. If any one has any info on the mods or knows the prior owner, it would be much appreciated. it's running a bit rich and i would like to get it tuned.

Car Info: 05 OBP STI
Im Joe and Im new here and recently replaced my 91 miata with a 05 STI. Im glad i did. The miata was turboed with 310hp and 272 ft/lbs and the STI ive picked up has 360hp and 420ft/lb. It was a massive change and its been a blast driving. Its got a few light mods I.E. gt52 turbo from element tuning apexi boost controller k&n short ram intake 850cc injectors cobb v2 access port turbo timer perrin equalizing header and full cat less exhaust. In time will come some more engine mods and some suspension work. Im looking for just some Oahu local WRX and STI people to cruise with. Im an older guy so ive grown out of the "ive got a fast car im racing everything" phase. im not into street racing, ill take it to a track if ive got something to prove. Hope to here from some of the locals soon. Mahalo.
