hahaha posers!

Until I got my wagon, I really didn't like them at all! It was the members here at SubyClub that convinced me otherwise.

That satin liberty does look good. I've seen a forester with probably the same colour, dunno if it was painted or wrapped though.

Good call on not wrapping the whole thing IMO

Exhaust looks nice. Mine is abysmal, lol

The new exhaust is on as well as the air intake. I also loaded my new tune, just need to send away some logs.

I put the cannon on for shits and gigs and the thing is very loud and deep. Not sure if I want to keep it on though as I think it will draw a lot of unwanted attention.

It tuns out that the most time consuming part of installing an exhaust is the stupid heat shield on the turbo. Would have only taken an hour without that.

Yeah I've definitely grown to it. I really like the colour. Atlantic Blue I think is the official name of it.

only attention will be from highway no one else. id just rock it for a while

After 2 exhaust volume warnings from HWP the cannon has been sold.

I have ordered a X-Force MP01 (twin tip) which I am hoping will be between the X-Force cannon and the Hi Tech in terms of volume and won't stick out as much.

After being stuffed around on black vinyl I have ordered enough carbon vinyl to do my roof and side mirrors.

I have also just bought a STI intercooler which I will be installing during the week to hopefully remove some heat soak the car is currently suffering.

For the mean time here is a pic with the little brothers RX wagon.

That's pretty awesome how your bro has almost the same car, lol

[cameron]

do you always go really slow over the speed humps in woonona or only when the police are watching you?? haha

[Josh.]

We will only have the same for a few months until he gets an 04/05 STI.

Haha I have to go slow over the one going up the hill. The exhaust tips hit the ground.

[WALKER]

Am I imagining things or is your bro's SUBY badge much longer than yours?

I finally got around to installing my STI cooler today. Now i just need the scoop and splitter to match.


I don't know if the STI cooler flows better or there was something wrong with my stock cooler.
It has gone from 15 psi peak and holding 13 psi to 17 psi peak and holding 15 psi.

Engine bay is clean as!

[cameron]

mine did exactly the same thing when i put my sti cooler on. it must be better flowing

[Josh.]

Cold weather

That's what I thought but it was the same today in the sunny, warmer weather. The plastic pipes on the stock one looked pretty restrictive.

Engine bay is clean as!

Thanks mate. I really need to neaten up the cables for the HID's though. That was before I cleaned it too haha.


Checked my tyres today and I 2 have bald inside edges
I'm not sure if I should just replace the tyres or get all new wheels. My mate did this quick photo shop with some Grid's and I think it could look alright (minus the stupid sticker.)

Careful running the extra boost.

18x8+44 with 225/40R18's will fit ok with some negative camber front and rear.

Front guards will need rolling, Same as the rear.

Those 18x9.5's won't fit without the front being converted to a sedan front.

[Josh.]

I have sent a Log to ChipTorque so I will see what they say about it.

Thanks for the info, I had a feeling 9.5's wouldn't fit.

Same problem I've got... Spewing as the rest of the tyre seems to have heaps of life left in them.
