My new ride...

Since I'm still 17 I would never be able to afford an Evo, so I think I found a pretty good compromise. My digital camera is out of batteries and I have none in the house, so I haven't take any pictures of the car yet, but here's one the previous owner took:



Mod List:

EJ20G motor Tuned by Doug from TopSpeed
MRT front mount intercooler
TD05 16G Turbocharger (no shaft play)
BPM divorced wastegate downpipe
MRT exhaust
Turbo XS manual boost controller (only used on dyno, never touched otherwise)
New 2002 WRX gearset (02/06)
Exedy stage 1 clutch
Exedy lightweight flywheel
Japanese WRX RA tachometer
Link V4 engine management with PC tune module
Kenne Bell boost-a-spark w/ magnecor wires
Walboro fuel pump
STi short shifter
J&S safeguard with safeguard monitor
Pivot turbo timer
Go Fast Bits Mach 1 BOV
Wheels, Brakes and Suspension:
17x7 gunmetal rota subzero wheels
Falken Azenis 215 tires
Subaru JDM STi 4 pot front brakes w/ Motul fluid and new OEM pads
Subaru 2002 WRX rear calipers and rotors with new OEM pads
FHi WRX swaybars
2001 Subaru impreza 2.5RS suspension

DM aluminum WRX/STi hood with 22B hood vents
2001 Impreza 2.5RS interior (front seats/ rear seats/ floor mats)
Nice coat of Lexus solar yellow paint (covers door jambs, engine compartment hi temp matte black)
STi Version 5 side skirts
STi V5 fog light covers
STi V5 rear spats
STi V5 rear wing
Autometer comp lite Boost, EGT gauges
