CRX is gone now so I decided to post up my WRX. Its not a honda but I still like hondas Lol...

So a little about the car its Lowered, swapped, and tuned, modified throttle body, HKS BOV, Unknown Cat back and downpipe, AEM intake.. Its also got lots of dings and little pecks from previous owner.

Minor Plans: New Front bumper, Side skirts, Stereo, Wheels, FMIC, Front and rear lip, Fix body up, and a few other things I havent decided yet

Taking it to get inspected. New Bumper in a few weeks along with sideskirts!

New bumper and Skirts finally done!

First snow! It was fun lol

Installed some WRX racing seats +5hp

Sticker Bombed my dash bezel for s%#$ and giggles +5hp

Picked up a FMIC, With a brand new Greddy BOV, Will be putting it on in a couple months +30hp

Butt Shot

New stereo installed! Real pics coming soon I only had crappy cam pics for now.

Outside of the car looks good, but that IC pipe looks like crap.

Side skirts look funny since they are lower than the front bumper, but the car is a huge upgrade.

Looks great. I myself would ditch the side skirts, just look goofy to me. I am actually seriously thinking of replacing my Fit for a STI.

Yeah, car looks good man. IMO those side skirts look seriously goofy, but it's your car and I love me some WRX either way.

I've had a few Subies, love 'em. What's it "swapped" with? What's it tuned with? OpenEcu? COBB AP? UTEC?

Skirts wont look funny when i get the front lip and rear lips on this summer. I just found those and painted skirt and new bumper was included in purchae price.

Its swapped with a J-Spec WRX motor, not sure what the shop tuned it with. The car has had alot done to it I havent even learned everything thats been done.

Getting a brand new Catless helix downpipe friday! Pics soon
