Yup! What brendan said. Black edition here we come!

 

Alk was probably one of the best mods I've done to my car...I can snap turn super quick and it just grips for days...almost no understeer AT ALL (on bc coils, sti aluminum control arms and bigger rear sway)

On/off ramps are crazy now...my driving style has changed a lot...sometimes I turn in too much and have to steer out to correct my lines...the front end sticks to the ground crazy

 

I have the Perrin PSRS with the added caster, which was a HUGE difference on the Legacy which has the same arms as the 08+WRX.

As the other guys mentioned less understeer and I have more corner out rotation on throttle. Keeps Dynamic camber. Gives the front end a more solid feeling. I woulnd't recommend the kit I have if you do not want any harshness because my front end is. If not I'd go with the AVO kit or Whiteline (make sure its the revised one). I'm also at like... 7.3-7.4 degrees of caster

For those who know my driving..... You know this makes my driving even nuttier lol. I don't wanna know what I'd do with some RS3, Starspecs, or Advans on.

 

what sucks even more is knowing you're at a limit on driving lol

 

I need to work on my technique a lot more before I start going mod crazy lol

 

That happens to me every now and again. I find a lift stomp fixes it. LOL!

Seriously though. If I keep my car I'll installing a whiteline ALK while the motor is out.






Side note... There is no Pliny the Elder in the Salinas/Monterey area. We are in a gap where they have no distribution. If you want it... email Russian River and tell them to send a guy out to your favorite local spot.

 

That is the best "mod" you can get

 

Yup, and tires too

Love the stock RE070. Can't wait to upgrade to 245/40/17.

Which reminds me, I'm looking at getting a new set of wheels but I'm a bit picky. I want 18's for the look but 17's have significantly cheaper tires and weighs a bit less too.

I'm thinking of the Advan RGII in 17x9 +45

 

I personally don't think that the 02-07's look that good with 18's... usually. Those advan's would be money.


I'm sad. I am considering selling off my wagon and buying a 2001 Forester L. Probably lower it, tint the windows and slap some 17x9 low offset grids on it and call it day. Rock it like that until I can figure out if I'm gonna get an FXT or wait a year or two and pick up a car just for me.

 

Yea, growing up sucks when you are in the in between phase. I've been considering several times, putting my car back to stock and buying a commuter car. And by commuter, I'm talking civic, Prius C, something that gets over 30mpg.

 

With your car I wouldn't. It's low miles and need relatively little. But you guys could definitely use a car that's for commuting and commuting only. Your car is paid off and it's low miles. I see now harm in it being something that's a for fun type of things for you guys. But yeah... a civic or something else that gets 40-50 mpg would serve you guys well. You'd almost save enough on gas alone to warrant the payments... that and taking miles off the forester might be worth it.

 

Ya thats why I dont want my wheels 18s look weird and the side wall is small

 

Taking offers on my car. $7500 and I'll throw in 2 full interiors and a brand new clutch.


I may or may not have to keep it but I figured I'd throw it out there.

 

Anyone going to auto-x this weekend? I'm running.

 

me and justin are pwnin it up on halo4. join us!
