The Mod Squad - i-Club staff members and their rides thread

The official staff member rdies thread. Get to know you beloved i-Club staff and the Subies they call their own.

I'll start it off with my 06 STI AKA i-Club Project STI
This car has gone through a couple suspension and brake setups mostly for product reviews, but is now back to almost stock and about to begin a new long term project build up

Here is my '05 Legacy GT

For the most part, she's done save for a few minor things. She's become the real ESP auto-x machine lately.



And here she is on her new street wheels

I used to have an '03 bugeye:



Then I got an '05 wagon:



Then I got really heavy in to biking, so I sold the coilovers and wheels, replaced them with STI Pink Wagon springs, the stock wheels and used the money to feed my bike habit. It still has Cobb AP:



And that's how it remains.

I also have an '01 2.5RS coupe with factory leather that is my wife's primary car:



It currently has an Injen CAI (smog legal, baby!), prodrive p1 springs and AGX struts.

Hi, I'm Daniel, also known as brucelee. I've been a member of this site for about 8 years now, and going strong. I remember this place when we had less than 1000 members world-wide, and most people didn't even know what an impreza was and thought Subaru was the maker of lesbian wagons.

I own two subies, a 2000 2.5RS that has been modified to hell and back, as well as a 2006 Black WRX TR with light mods (STi V5 seats, catback, stereo, P1 wheels, and some other small bits like HIDs, etc)

I don't have any pics of the WRX, but have plenty of my RS:







And a photoshop one of my friends did of my car:





Also, the wing on the RS is the ONLY one in the entire USA. It was imported from Japan through BOZZ Speed, the same one that is on their race car.
