New '06 STi in SJ
Hi all, just wanted to introduce myself. I picked up an '06 Steel Grey STi from Livermore Subaru for $200 over invoice. Not the greatest deal, but I got a good deal on the trade in and on financing so I'm not complaining. My last car was a Mini Cooper S, so I'm new to the world of turbo's and I'm sure I'll have lots of questions. Don't really see any point in posting pics of a stock ride, so I'll wait till I'm past break in and start on my new masterpiece:-)
FYI, if you have any friends with Mini's I have a ton of aftermarket parts I stripped off the Mini that are for sale.

Welcome to i-club, and nice car choice!
What kind of Mini parts do you have? My friend just bought one but I don't know if she wants to void the factory warranty yet. Any cosmetic upgrades?

ZeR0, I just got it on sunday and I haven't been on 680 (aside from bringing it home), so it probably wasn't me;-)
slvrsubywgn, Snow tires and wheels, a set of new Potenza S03's, and 17" Team Dynamics Pro Race 1's with BFG Gforce rubber. I also have an Alta Intake, Milltek Catback exhaust, and a Unichip piggyback ECU. Basically everything in the Webb Motorsports Stage 1 kit minus the 15% pulley (which I left on the car).

Actually that's why I got rid of the Mini, could have just been my dealer but I had CEL issues as well as some mystery noises and phantom electrical problems they tried to blame on the mods.
