Sure is. The WRX is so much more fun to drive. Heaps more power and better handling.
I do miss the extra space of the Liberty though.

I'll be keeping these ones until I have finished full exhaust, tune etc
Will let you know if I sell these.

cheers mate i have been hunting a set of these


Yeah I know, struts are pretty much stuffed anyway. I'll probably upgrade to coilovers in the next few months.

I just bought a Ezy Flash Pro off another forum member but have a few questions before I get tunes put on it.

I have a diff back exhaust on the car at the moment and was wondering how much I would gain by replacing the rest of the system?

Thanks

do all your mods at once put them all on at the same time and get it tunned once. dont throw away money paying for a tune for every mod. get a turbo back exhaust and an sti cooler, remove the intake restrictor and you should hit close to 160kw.

Have you put any more thought into squeezing some more power out of the engine. Like strapping on one of those intake fans

So I have decided to just tune the car the way it is because it only costs $275 and will do me for the short term.

Over the next few months I will hopefully get a new air intake, STI cooler, BOV, 3" dump pipe and mid section, silicon short fat bit and a few other various items. Then I will install them all at once and get a proper dyne tune.

In the next few weeks it will be getting a strut brace, rear sway bar with heavy duty links and clear side indicators and reflectors. I have installed a boost gauge but not sure if it will be staying.

I had a spare hour before work this afternoon so I installed my front coilovers, looks and drives so much better. Hoping to get the rears in tonight after work. Turns out you don't need Coilover spanners, just a punch and a hammer.
