Hey guys...newbie here and i don't even own a suby. name is gabe, i was the kid that rolled up with james (green 98 2.5rs w/gold wheels). I currently drive a VW which i am trying to get rid of to purchase a suby...hopefully you guys are as welcoming as the VW crowd was and from the first meet that i have gone to, it seems to be true.
looking forward to good times =)

I thought your vr6 put down 275whp on dynojet? (heard that somewhere)

Yup. I actually have a theory about this; Subaru is just expensive enough so that to weed out (most) "ricers" but cheap enough to avoid pompous A-holes. Results is we get nice guys.
But don't be too quick to lable the Honda community; engineers who like tinkering and former muscle car guys who like swapping tend to be attracted to Honda (and VW) as well, and they are super cool guys!
oh I know...i drove hondas for 3 years (92 integra, 2 GSRs, 1 accord) and im an engineer as well
there are a few cool guys, but the community as a whole is flooded with young cocky ricer punks who think their swapped rattle trap hbs are god on wheels

Hey Wiggles,
Welcome,
I'd been in the VW/Audi scene for a good 12-13 yrs. I've had a total of 4 GTI's and a 79 Scirocco with a 1.8 conversion, and my last car was an A4 1.8t with a8's APR chip, Nuespeed suspension. Last year I went to an 02 WRX, and I love it. I think I'm settling on this one. It has the best performance for the price, and aftermarket parts are way cheaper than Euro aftermarket parts. I do have to admit I love the Euro styling with it's clean lines and when dropped they look like they got bulldog stances. . . SICK. The WRX styling took a little while to grow on me, but once I engaged the clutch and hit the gas, and took a corner, my smile was ear to ear.
