So, instead of the mini... how about a Vishnu tuned Forester XT?

Why don't you just hand the Forrester right over to the dealership, considering how many STi's Bay Area dealerships have with blown motors from Vishnu??

You sure you don't have Shiv confused with I-speed? Cuz I know they blew up 6 of Subydudes engines!

Blew up. Subaru changed my oil pump... after that it had some crazy leak, and although I check my oil fairly often, I didnt drive my car for a couple weeks... went to start it up... heard some CRAZY *** nock (Thought it was an exhaust leak at first). Turned around, went home. Checked oil... saw that I was over 3 quarts low... Added oil. The nock didnt go away. I threw a rod.

that's bull shavick man. That sucks. If they don't replace what they broke that's lame. Sue them.

Look at it this way. My room mates old ford taurus got in an accident...well my room mate in the ford, anyways. The fixed everything did something wrong with the radiator and the motor ended up seizing because of it and my room mate not paying close enough attention. They had to foot the bill to rebuild the motor.

Subaru needs to cough it up and fix your isht. Or give you the money to do it.

I've got a Vishnu tuned Forester XT...

Somewhat conservative tune though... I don't think I'll be blowing up my engine anytime soon.

you can doooo it!!!!!

do it.....do it.....yeah.

Man if the XT was available when I got my wrx I may have gotten the xt instead. Things are sick.

But you will have to lower that thing to get it on the track. If they pay attention, it's too high stock for the track.


But those things look sick with sti pink springs and 18's. I like the interior pockets better and it's got mad headroom for you tall bastards with tall hair. And sunroofs man.

DOO IT>

But the forester is just so, so, so...ugly. Really it is. Even the reviews say its ugly. It may e fast, but its like a turbocharged boxy lifted hearse (to my eyes).
