Just installed my APS CAI, and Samco Elbow Man, I never knew the stock BOV was really that loud I just fell in love with my car again, it will be short lived, as I will be taking it off before I take my car in for warranty issue. I believe something is wrong with my car somewhere some how, dunno what but I feel something is wrong, and was diagnosed by a good guy around my area that is familiar with Subies. Well hopefully I can get things straightened out with SOA and get my car looked at, and returned asap. Not to say anything but my battery tie downs were completely loose, both bolts were not even holding the battery down, I just want SOA to look over my car, even if it costs me $100 or so. Just to have peace of mind and what not is worht it to me. I know pics would be nice, but like I said before I am a broke ass laborer with an expensive hobby of driving a nice car Thanks for your concerns, and comments.

Finally got some newer pics of my car taken hope you guys enjoy. I recently swapped out my 5Zigen Fireball for a JIC Magic 505 Bullet in Stainless Steel with Cusco hangers. Definitely looks cleaner then the 5Zigen, since there is no pre-muffler in front of the canister anymore. Also on it's way is a V-Limited Lip with the Spec-C Duster on it as well. Thanks for looking, comments are welcomed, thanks again.

Check out the Nor Cal section of the California section I have some extras if you want to get it from me too, but I would rather have you track the guy down first.

Should I do the tailight tint, I have been thinking about doing it, more then likely going with the 3/10, and hopefully getting the IWSTI rear license plate, or the STI Plate, what decisions I face

V-Limited Lip w/ Spec-C Duster deal fell through, I guess I am going to look for the Cusco lip, and or the JDM lip now. Also looking for a set of Tanabe GF210's for the 04 STi, also have been hearing a lot about getting the ALK, so I will be looking into getting that too.

Sweeeet WRB dude!

I'm gonna have to check around for that "I love my STi" sticker...

As far as the lip... I'll tell you from my personal experiance (I had the Cusco lip before I got rid of it for the JDM one) the Cusco lip looks good, but IMO the JDM flows so much better with the stock sideskirts and rear. Also, you have to be very careful with the Cusco as it's made of a fairly stiff fiberglass that is prone to breakage, especially if you're lowered (trust me, I know ). The JDM is made of a pliable urethane that will hold up very well. In all honesty tho... they both look hot.. so either way you win!
