Thank you sir. It was 12 hours of fun. I friggin love it though. It cam out clean. I'm gonna have the rear carpet piece sewn on all the edges to make it look factory where I cut it to fit around the V-brace base. Then it will be lookin' even better back there.

That is the sort of love, and attention to detail that a clean DD STi should always have! No slapping parts on left and right because they're "Mad JDM tyte y0". It's all about making things appear as if they could have originally come with the car.

Wow. Thanks!

Here are some more teaser pics of the latest project...

Intercooler Spray Bar with a factory installed kinda look.

The go tank test fitted in the trunk area.

The evil plan...
Use the factory rear-seat back cover/trunk liner thingy to make a divider between the V-brace and the tank to hide it behind teh back seat in its own compartment. The tank will be mounted to the two black rear-seat braces that run vertically behind the seat.

Hey thanks! I've had to redo the mounting plate for the N2O tank. I measured once and drilled three times. oops. Monday I'll go pick it up and get it painted.

Still waiting on my buddy at Livermore Subaru for pricing on some interior bits I need and a relay clip under the hood. Still waiting on Mike at GST for my parts. Always waiting on someone. Hmmm.

Fixing up my Mall Crawler (01 Ram 9" lift, etc) for DD use so the STI can go under the knife for a while. Body work, etc.

Come springtime I want this car ready for some HF meets.

On a brighter note. The car I did the latest fender work and some brake work on came in third at Subiefets in the Enthusiast Class. Thats right byoches!

Casa De Grambo's Garage is puttin' out the good ish. The driver did it all really. Congrats to my pal Goodtimes!

Nah, it was Goodtimes' 07'. He's a hellava driver. We did his fenders and added some brake cooling equipment. All quality shi> Matty doesn't mess around with bling. He's hellafunctional.

My current plan is to finish the Greddy lip, WRX side skirts, WRX front garnish, find or make a splitter, curb feeler, Chargespeed brake ducts, wingless, paint the roof vane, etc.

Rear camber plates, normal maintenance stuff, finish the NOS tank, etc.
