Hey fellas-

Just joined the Subaru camp over the weekend. I was previously flying the Honda flag with a '97 Prelude but I finally saw the light!

Actually, the wife and I are having a baby and we needed a four door car to tote our baby boy in. So this is what we bought...

2002 Midnight Black Pearl WRX

(Mods performed by previous owner)

- Complete APS Package: SR30 Turbo, Dual Entry TMIC, BOV, Intake, Turbo-Back Exhaust, and Unichip. All mods tuned by FIS in Mckinney. 300hp to the flywheel/ 250 to the ground.

-18" OZ/Prodrive Rims (Gunmetal) with Yokohama Parada Spec-2's, Cobb brake pads on stock calipers.

-Suspension/tranny work has been done to the car but the dealer was unable to furnish the complete mod list. From just driving and looking around, I see aftermarket sway/strut bars, springs, clutch, short shift kit. I'll have to wait until this weekend to find out who made these parts. The owner before me was a Dr. and, from what the dealer tells me, he babied the car which I tend to believe because the car looks and performs flawlessly.

Please let me know if there are any local meets coming up (I live in Grapevine). I am still learning about my car and I would like to meet other Scooby owners. I'll post pics of the car this weekend!

Thanks

I did buy it from Subaru of Dallas! I saw it when I was crusing autotrader over the holidays. It was a sweet deal and I knew I had to pick it up fast or it would have been swept up by someone else, maybe by your friend!

I'll look out for you on the road. I drive all over Grapevine so I know I'll bump into you sometime. Are you going to go to the meet at Fuddruckers on Sunday?

See ya!

Salaki,

Yeah I was at the meet last Sunday. I was unable to go the meet on Wed (food poisoning).

Hopefully I can make it out to the next one. Will it be at Sonic again?

I'll try to get some pics up as soon as I can. It's been so cold lately and I work everyday till 5:30 so I don't have any light. I'm going to wash it up this weekend and shoot some pics with my brother. So they should be up by the weekend.
