Alright hahah I am going to talk to a few of you this Wednesday to figure out a game plan. If I do suspension I sort of have to do it in stages because I don't have the full income I use to get since I'm at school studying something completely different and don't have the same cash flow to fund. So I'll see what's my best bet talking with s few on wed.

doing it in stages is good but remember, its more worthwhile to do it at one time for some pieces. like the rear bushings for the camber the same time you put the struts and springs on etc.

Yeah I was planning on doing bushing springs and struts all at the same time install. For now I think I want to play around with sway bars see if it helps till I need to do an oil change.. Then once I need to do maintenance on my car.. Ill just jump to RBMS with a bunch of parts to install and ask Mert or who ever will be working on my car to change out filters blah blah blah.

Company wise, I'm Whitelining out my car for a sponsorship.

...*snort*

No really though, they make good parts. Your ride is fairly new so I'd lay off some things til a while down the road, but as said, while you're under the hood may as well add stuff on to save on labor, amateur or professional.

For an ID, I asked to borrow the jack crank arm last time, and I think I win the meet ghetto WRX context with the dents and scrapes on my PSM 04 GDA (to be fixed soon. Ish. Or something). Challengers can death match me in a demolition derby.

Photo mad apropos, oui oui? And welcome!

Yeah I remember that, I figure I may as well get everything out of the way and do it once (or more depending if I plan on more things)..

Thanks Heedz, and everyone lol Subaru world is so different than German car world... still sad that my old car has a blown engine it didnt give any symptoms at all and I had it checked regularly because it was a track car. But I am thoroughly enjoying my new car a lot and I am sure itll be a lot better with the add-ons. Everyone is super helpful lol
