Project Stinji would like to thank Robispec!

Just wanted to give a quick thanks to Robert Fuller (AKA Robispec) for a job well done! We were in his shop til 11:00pm the other night to make sure my car was complete and perfect! (when I say we...he was working...I was watching)

Robi fine tuned my existing coilover setup, cornerbalanced, camber adjustments, and added a Whiteline Anti-Lift Kit (he calls it the Anti-Squat Kit and now I know why!). He was also able to do a couple of other projects for me that I just didn't have time to do.

Even with a couple of hangups that would have cause myself to "push the damn car off the lift", he did it with a smile and gave me excellent service.

Robispec is very well established in the EVO world and now I know why! He set the car up according to my driving style and the types of tires I will be running at the track (I'm such a noob when it comes to that type of stuff...so he taught me quite a bit while I was there). I can't wait to see what it does at the Time Attack at Streets of Willow on Sunday!!!

Here's a couple of pics from this weekend.

I think it looks nice. The stripes matches the brake ducts.

haha...People either love the stripes or hate em! Doesnt seem to be many in the middle. No worries...It's just my style...and I like it cuz there aren't many like it!

The brake ducts are actually made by Beatrush...just a little different than the Chargespeed. I gave fitment an A- but they work...I needed the extra brake cooling for track days.

I dig the stripes. Personally when it's time to paint my car, I really want to do the elanore paint job. It's currently black so maybe reverse stripes. But honestly I can totally see it. Oh well nice job on the car

Yeah, I like it... the stripes look tough! They fit well with the black wheels. I don't know about the stripes being on the wing tho. If I may suggest, maybe paint the horizontal part of the wing all black?

All aesthetic judgements aside, I'll bet I'd envy your mod list. I love white STi's.

Thanks for the feedback guys! yeah...the mods list would be a little long to list everything...as far as painting to top of the wing black...it's going to be replaced soon i hope. I'm stuck between the Cusco 3D Carbon wing or the APR wing. I just spent a bit last week...6 point cage is halfway complete, and I swapped out the rotors for the DBA two piece fronts and 1 piece rears.
