Paradox's '07 NBP 2.5i Wagon

Today is exactly a year that I've had my Suby! I love it. A year ago, I was stalling awfully through Capitol Exwy as I attempted to drive it home. Her name is Cameilla and she's a 2007 Newport Blue Pearl 2.5i Wagon.

During the last year I, along with the help of friends, have done lots of work to my car, especially DIY projects, and I have met great people in the community. Much thanks goes to my mentor St0ich for ALL the help and to 03_Impreza_Al for being the one to drop my car. PDM all the way!

Got her new with 88mi and now she's got about 10xxx. Occasionally, I take her to tackle the twisties on Metcalf.










Check that NA EL25!


The mods I've done so far:

Exterior:
S204 lip (replica)
RS badge
25% tint back & 35% rear
17 x 7.5 Work Esperio Design 1 rims (repainted gold)
NITTO NT850 225/45/17
Work RS lug nuts
DIY-
Roof rail delete & swapped with Saab deletes
Chopped grill & swapped with custom grill
Painted red side mirrors (which I'm going to replace) & calipers
Cleared headlights (with a bucket of hot water!)
Raised hood

Interior:
Pioneer deck w/ AUX
Prodrive shift ****
RAZO spiked pedals
DIY-
Painted black interior (pillars, visors, and center dash)
Swapped headrests (a favorite!)
Rear headrests delete
Custom blue stitching on shift boot

Suspension:
Perrin springs -2in around (approx)
05 WRX rear sway bar
Cusco Varenza rear strut bar
to be installed: Group N ALK

Engine:
K&N Big Typhoon SRI
STi axleback
Resonator delete

Sadly, I'm already thinking on going back to stock, or not, to sell her and get an STI in the future. Tell me what you think! Thanks for looking.
