Hey All!
Well seeing that I've been lurking around this place for the past two years, I thought it might be high time to actually introduce myself.
My first exposure to a wrx was through one of my closest mates, she had a nice green classic with gold rims, 3" turbo back and sat lower to the ground. After taking it for a spin one afternoon I was immediately hooked on the car and aspired to eventually get one to call my own. In 2008 after seeing the new model Impreza WRX, I bit the bullet and purchased an OBP hatch from City Subaru. Needless to say, I was thrilled but bitterly disappointed with the manner in which the car handled on the road, so after doing some reading (thank you search button ) I decided to give John at wheels world a call. Several weeks later I had dropped the car off for some minor suspension modifications and the minute I sat in the car, I knew it was beginning to feel like a real WRX (I also had a grin from ear to ear!). The car was subjected to the following: 22mm front sway bar, 20mm rear sway bar, front control arm brace, front strut tower brace, roll centre kit, Whiteline lowering springs & some camber here and there. Unfortunately that car is now gone and in its stead sits a nice new MY11 WR Mica sedan. I only have a few pictures up at the moment but for those who will be attending the Colin McRae cruise this year, I'll be nice enough to let you have a close up look at the car! Cheers, Tony!

Amazing how much the front of the MY11 harks back to the original GC8. Nice work, Subaru!

I haven't driven any MY09's to date, but I have taken a MY10 for a couple of drives, the only noticeable difference is a slightly firmer body. Powerwise it feels a fair bit different to the MY08, but is the same as the MY09/MY10.
