Alright without further adue here is my 2007 Subaru Impreza WRX STI Limited #425/800. I purchased the car in october of 2006 after waiting for it a couple of months in transit. My overall plan for the car is to be a improved overall package simalar to the Litchfield Type 25. A car that looks like it could come like that from the factory, that way just improved in every aspect. Here is the current list of modifications I've done:

[mikey boy]

awesome ride man! nice upgrades so far. how are you liking the stage 2 maps with LC and FFS? where in IL are you?

[XIII]

the v103 stage maps are awseome....no boost creep....no boost spike...running perfectly....currently im running the v103 without the LC control because i think it still has its problems and its very strenuous on the car.....BTW im from Downtown/Lincoln Park

[TheLimitedProject]

Atta boy MK. A journal... finally.

You need to get your suspension done - just look at the body roll in your Auto-X pics I'm glad you have some nice suspension parts listed in your future mods. Be wary of just swapping out your springs... our struts suck balls. IMO, hold off until Prodrive releases their struts and pair those with the RCE yellows, or go coilovers right off the bat.

Anyway, nice journal bud Your meet pics aren't showing though.

Cheers, M

Rice!


Haha, good job Matt. Let's see some pics of the exhaust and stuff man... Afterall, it only took you 3 months to buy it after I told you what to buy

I liked the headlight pics I saw in the local thread.

Does that bluetooth phone thing work well?

[XIII]

the bluetooth works amazing....i step in the car and the phone automatically connects to the head-unit and all the contacts sync automatically.......the only problem is sometimes its hard for the person your calling to hear you.....BTW im still deciding if i like the angel eyes or if thier rice....i might swap someone for stock headlights + cash and then do the paint and tsx lens swap with Cezar....also, let me know if everyone is having trouble with the meet pics b/c I'll try and fix them because thier Awseome

[nandanrp]

I can't see the meet pics either (in this thread).

Your "angel eyes" are pretty subtle in pictures... I'm guessing you disabled the DRLs, or else you couldn't see them at all. I'll have to reserve judgement for when I see them in person.

You better get to work organizing another meet, I want to see turnout as good as the one I missed!

[XIII]

ill try fix the meet pics....i didn't disable the drls but you cant see them that well.....
