The thread's poll be damned! Congrats on the new Subie. You chose wisely picking white, it IS the fastest car color, in case you didn't already know.

 

Zeitgeist and Hobson's Choice. There is one other but I forget.

 

ya Zeit was pretty sweet yesterday, Tamale lady was in effect

 

Ha, will visit these places! Thank you!

Tamale lady? Red faced? Dude, pop a Pepcid AC 15min before your first drink - works for me


EDIT: sorry for the OT!!

 

Try out the special edition and with the money you save go get a nice stereo installed and some osram +90 bulbs. Then with the rest of the money, buy some sweet mods, wheels, and some dyno tune time, and maybe a trackday to.

 

nah Tamale Lady is just that, Lady that goes from bar to bar with a big crate of tamales for sale, bit of a SF institution

Oh, thanks! I learned something new today


Huck, do yourself a favor and get your front bumper clear bra'd immediately. We all know how tough subaru paint is.......it's pretty damn frustrating to see chips on a brand new car, I know that as a fact

Look into RA mudflaps too, at least the front ones, to protect your rear doors from getting sand blasted from whatever your front tires throw back.

Almost all GR owners will recommend a protune or at least a AccessPort with a OTS Stage 1 tune for 91oct ASAP. I've been doing just fine with the stock "dangerous" tune for 23k miles. Though I'll be honest that I'd be running a protune by now if I wasn't planning to sell.

If you like to do spirited drives, search up the seat mod that is basically unhooking clips at the back to get the seats to hug you more. I haven't done it yet, and do get annoyed at myself for not doing it whenever I slide around on turns.

Blacking the front grille/mustache is also very popular among GR owners, and it looks pretty damn good on a white car. I didn't do it, as I like the matching silvery on the mustache and fog light surrounds on a DGM.


Tail-light paint/overlays! A must do for white GR's!!!

 

what the hells a clear bra?? Isnt that the stuff that makes your paint fall off after a year??

 

Naw man, it's for the ladies.....you know, when they want to be too kinky.....or is it, krinky?

 

I suppose I need to make an appointment...

 

Nice! Thanks for the infos.

Already got a few things along those lines planned... paint I know oh too well... front lip coming, maybe mudflaps... although taillights don't really bother me so much. I might just leave them stock. STi HIDs a priority... and trying to not touch the tune at least until after I break her in.

 

dude freaking awesome car! i was walking the lot today at stevens creek subaru and was lookin for new cars to pdi and i saw the STI SE model and i told myself no one else is going to touch this car and grabbed the keys and pulled it into my stall. very nice car indeed

 

Good stuff! What lip you getting? The OEM? BaysonR? Blacktop? APR?

 

OEM... Plans are to keep everything clean and simple on this suby. I learned my lesson on my other moneypit.

Besides I really like the stock build of this STi.
