Well, I almost never take pictures of my car, partly because I'm trying to keep it looking as stock as possible, and the other part being that I don't really like the looks of the cars anyways. I'm still trying to figure out why I bought one. No, actually we've owned Subarus in the past and they're excellent cars, I just never cared for the styling. Anyways, on with the pictures..












ERZ bellmouth downpipe (catless)
Vishnu 321 uppy (catless)
custom bent straight pipes
intake silencer delete

v. Vl STi type RA gears (standard edition, cryo treated)
ACT Streetlite flywheel
Exedy organic sport clutch

Eibach Pro kit springs
20mm rear sway

Axxis Ultimates brake pads
painted calipers
ATE Superblue DOT 4 fluid

17x7.5" Rota SDR
225/45 R17 ES 100
Shaved emblems

I have Whiteline steering rack bushings coming in the mail and Stoptech s/s brake lines already purchased. Accessport tuned by Ed@EQTuning is next on the list.

And all the fluids are upgraded. It's not super duper modded, but well on it's way. I think that's all I have in it right now.

Here's some updated pics I took right after Mt Hamilton at a park. I'll post up my up to date mods list soon.

I think it is very nice. I think simple upgrades are underrated.

When did you get those wheels? Wag looks good, you're gonna like the steering rack bushings too. Had them put in Friday, and now steering feels nice and sharp.

Yeah by simple I meant the exterior styling. I'm sure its not so simple when it comes to power mods.!

I picked up the wheels from a fellow i-clubber for a killer deal a few months ago. I can't wait to get those steering rack bushings in. Sorry I procrastinated getting them...I know we had planned on installing together. So you got your car back from the shop? How do you like the clutch/fly along with those bushings?

Feels like a new car, I completely forgot how a good clutch feels. It actually grabs!

Back to your car...I think if you added an STi hood scoop, the exterior would look even better (how can you not like the bugeye steeze?lol). Its more aggressive looking and it will compliment your painted side skirts. It flows more air and its not too expensive either.

Matt, I'm not a big fan of the huge hood scoops, but now that you mention it, I can see how it would look good. I'll consider it, thanks for the tip.

Thanks Ave! Tell me how you like the bushings.
