gosu's 2007 OBP WRX STi

2007 WRX STi OBP

- Went on to bigger and better. I loved my 2004 WRX, but I pretty much maxed out the little td04 on 20psi and mods to make power out of it. The tranny was grinding, my interior was getting pretty bad, and then I thought... Upgrade tranny, brakes, turbo etc etc etc! Or get a car with a better platform to start off with!

But still I miss that Rally Blue

- Now I have my WRX STi and I love it. Stock brake pads suck, about 30 more creaks in the car, and factory tune sure sucks, but I don't care.

MODS:
- Tuned by myself
- Was show room car, so it has spt exhaust
- "Had" an spt intake but traded someone for stock box
- That STi 6 speed short shifter system
- ATI gage pod, STRI: boost, egt, and oil pressure
- Redline PS fluid, Redline Water wetter

FUTURE PLANS:
- Brake pads and other brake components
- some 255's when the re70's are dead
- Sway bars
- RCE lowering plates
- Couple eccentric bolts
- Some Downpipe/uppipe
- More tuning!
- Alignment done by me!!
- Motul brake fluid, rear diff fluid, tranny fluid
- And most important of all, More Track Time!!

DEFINITELY MORE TO COME!

Beautiful STi! I love the 2007's. Better radio, better gear ratios, and some other small refinments. And looks like you already took care of the bad tune the 07's suffer from.

car looks great! 07 FTW I love the gearing but can't say ive tried the 05/06 to compare. Can't regret the 07, just gotta be tasteful w/ mods and when to do them. looks awesome!

How do you like the short shifter?!

gosu · 04-08-2008, 10:46 PM

Ive drove all of them before. The 07's feel just a tad different (longer)

Tasteful is my middle name! This is going to be my track/DD vehicle!

I love the short throw. All the other WRX STi's I've been in did not have them. You can feel a little difference
