Hi guys,

Welp, I sold the Nissan X-Trail truck, the civic hatchback and the Aristo. After driving the econobox Honda Fit for a few months, the turbo itch is coming back to me with a vengeance and I was hunting for a new ride. Anyway, I got this baby a couple of weeks ago but haven't felt the need to post anything while waiting for the papers for my car to clear and am finally able to take it out for a drive (to the nearest speedshop) and get some parts installed on the car. As it stands right now, it's got HKS Legamax muffler, Zero Sports downpipe, Zero Sports midpipe, Tein FLEX coilovers, HKS intake /w polished elbow, NGK racing sparkplugs, Ganador cf side mirrors and custom cf side mirror interior covers.

Anyway, my car is a 2004 JDM right-hand drive Subaru WRX STi (it's got 3000km on it and the papers are Oct '05, so it might as well be new) and that means it's got the 2.0L turbo engine. The first thing as soon as I can gather enough dough is to get the 2.5L block from America and I'll go from there... in the meantime...

Hey Jon, how are you man? Good to see you posting. To be totally honest, the car looks nice, but I swear a 1975 Ford Pinto would look good in that garage! seriously LOL

Congrats on the new ride man, and if there is anything we can help with, let me know.

LOL thanks guys. I never left. I am still here and posting from time to time, you guys make it sound like I was gone for a long time. I got plenty of stuff on order and they will go on the car soon enough, but it will never be like my Aristo. I just don't have the time and dedication to do something like that all over again.

I guess I might be burnt out....the 6-sp stick is nice though! :D :D
