I like those yellow fogs. Did you modify the JDM headlights so they don't shine into the oncoming traffic?
-
Not a fan of that wing either but I would love to see a video to hear that exhaust.
-
Wow Tom, that carpet looks amazing.

Yeah man http://www.ultimatesubaru.org/forum/forumdisplay.php?f=81

I sent mick a pm for it to get moved.

Oh man, I love the tails on this thing. Did wonders for the car. I traded dude the factory rear sway bar from my STi plus the stockers. We traded in the walmart parking lot. It was a PITA.

Have not done an update in a long time. Traded with a guy and got JDM wagon tails My WRX headunit finally died, sourced another one from another friend and put it back in. Put new rear rotors on Sunday. The ones on it were the factory ones. Made in Japan and sent over here to Indiana. They were shot. Got the new ones on and the car did not want to move, acting like the parking brake was on. My father in law and I took them back off and got a wire brush and scraped a TON of rust off the 6 o'clock position of the assembly that contains the parking brake mechanism. We got it to roll again but it makes some rubbing noise. No brakes are dragging and is not affecting driveability. Just makes noise like a bad wheel bearing when making turns. Figured it would eventually wear down. We are taking it to Florida on Saturday. Looking forward to the drive.

They would lower it but s techs are known to destroy struts. Well, with wrx's anyway.

Looks good with the 06/07 wheels.
-
I agree with you 100%. I have one in my 95 Outback.

I put rear WRX seats in my RS coupe and I remember it being a huge PITA.
-
What all was involved in putting the rear wrx wagon seats in? Do they still lay flat?
-
Looking good dude. I would love to swap someone my BBS center caps for those 07 caps.
-
I have always loved that color on white spoked wagon wheels.

Thanks for the love, guys. I took the JDM STi lip off a few days after I bought the car. The roads here and parking lots suck so I did not want to risk it. It is still in the shed. I have this now:

Thanks man. The wing was only off about an hour.

There also has since been a suspension change. I took the Tanabe GF210 springs off last August and put the stock springs back on. The ride improved greatly with the stock springs and a set of Continental ExtremeContact DWS.

Had a wing stud that had snapped off from when I had gotten the trunk and finally got around to replacing it. Pictures from my dirty car, half-assed, nasty day, photoshoot. Pictures taken with my Galaxy Nexus. http://www.mysubie.com/gallery?id=2653 The problem that I ran into with my stud repair was the STi trunk has two different studs. One is longer than the other. I ordered the wrong one by accident, my fault. Luckily I ordered two of them because they are notorious for snapping off, a second one snapped off in removal. Got the wing off and tried to fit the shorter stud into the grooves on the wing, wasn't happening. So, I sat there for about ten minutes and then I compared the slide bases and found the one was only slightly narrower and thinner than the other. So, off to the shed I went to get my file that I had not used in about 2.5 years from when I installed rear WRX seats in my RS. 2 minutes of filing each and they were both able to slide into place and click. I went to get back into the trunk with the wing off and forgot about how much tension the STI torsion bars have. That thing flung up and about hit me in the face.

If you are hell bent on running HIDs you really need to retrofit HID projectors over to your stock headlights. Most projector assemblies on the market are going to be designed for halogen bulbs and not for the HIDs. There is also the option of finding JDM Legacy B4 headlights that used a factory HID system. The issue with those is the headlights will be aimed at oncoming traffic due to them being designed for a right hand drive car. These are sold but you can get the idea: http://legacygt.com/forums/showthread.php/jdm-legacy-b4-factory-hid-headlights-complete-177375.html?p=3702450
