Bought her brand new August 2005, enjoying every minute since then. Have long term plans for her. I am getting there slowly but surely.




Here she is bone stock:

Re: sti-06's WRB STi is wrecked!

Sorry to hear about your misfortune. :(
Thanks man.


:eek: Wow That defineatly sucks man. Get well soon... to you and the car:)
Thanks. I am good just a lil sore around my shoulders and neck.


JEZE! MAn i know how you feel...mine is in the shop now...mine slid in the rain...did you flip over the car? the car just starting sliding when you turned understeer? or what. I ask cuz my poor RE's cuased my fail..i believe this becuase ive put about 10,000 miles on them and they jus have never seemed to be any good expect when its dry and hot outside!

It understeered like no tomorrow. I was trying to take right curve and ended up on the left side of the interstate. Thats exactly what I thought since I have 255's i thought they wud be more forgiveable but I guess not.

No I didnt flip over the car but the steel wire thats one the top ended up tearing up my roof and left rear door.

wow,sorry this had to happen to you.wish you the best!!!
Thanks for the wishes bro.

Re: sti-06's WRB STi is wrecked!

Damn man sorry to see the whip is f*****. Glad you were ok.
Yeah she is done. 3 yrs worth of work is gone...


Sucks to see man.... Im sure it doesnt get that cold down there but take it easy fellas now that the weather is cooler... the road/tires arent going to have that much heat in em to get maximum grip.

RE070s suck pretty bad in the rain u gotta take it easy on those as well.
It was 70+ degrees sunny weather. $1k+ tires + all wheel drive = NOTHING!
Slid thru 4 lanes.
Anyways thanks for the wishes man.
