Thanks guys. It's hard to keep it clean since its my DD, but I try to give her a wash every weekend! I'm thinking about doing another round of Zaino detailing before the winter arives to try and keep all that nasty winter grime off the car.

Alright well maybe I lied about no more mods this year... I'm contemplating getting a cai, fuel pump, and protune. And maybe in the winter I will get some defi gauges... I guess we will see what happens

Default Re: Gondy's 07 WRB STI - Invidia catless DP and G200 exhaust clip added 7/31***

Just added an exhaust clip to the bottom of my 1st post... enjoy!

Planning on installing my amp and sub this weekend, as well as claybarring all the white paint that somehow got splashed on my baby ?!?!?

No plans for any new serious mods at the moment

Looks good so far, and those ebay rims are kind of sweet. Nice find.

Sorry I havn't checked the Journal in a while...

The Blizzak Revo 1s where just under $500 shipped from tire rack.. pretty good deal. Should be throwing them on any one of these weekends coming up, will throw up pics of the car with the winter set-up.

Sorry about the exhaust clip.. I will take a new exhaust clip either today or tomorrow, and at the request of another member will take an inside clip to show what the car sounds like from the cabin. I love the Invidia set-up, sounds really MEAN! If you are worried about being too loud, I would stay away though. My neighbors definitely complain when I wake them up every morning when I leave for work!

Claybarring/detailing will probably take place this weekend, will post some pics of the results!
