Hey Folks,

I've had my 05 WRP10 for about 15 months now, totally stock standard. Been thinking about either selling up, or putting some cash into an Exhaust/ECU/Air intake mods so decided to finally sign up to the forums and do some research.

Pics of my baby are below (taken when i 1st got her) She has 73k km's and is in totally mint condition (except for the fact i haven't driven her for about 3 weeks so she is a little dirty right now - time to got to Ambassador Car Care for a detail)

As you can see, she's in great condition.. and since i bought her i've had the steering wheel and gear know reconditioned. Actually planning to get them replaced in the next few weeks... just need to speak to Subaru and get some prices.

I work up at Northside Nissan in Wangara, which is where i spotted this in the yard and bought it the same day. I've serviced it 3 times in past 12 months although i have only donr 11k km's, and the only money she has cost me was 4 new tyres.

When i bought this car (my 1st ever WRX) i expected to spend quite a lot of cash on it with with servicing and parts etc but she has never missed a beat... i love it

All i need to do now is decide which exhaust i want to buy (thinking about a HSK Hi-Power) and what intake and ECU i want to use.. and of course, which garage to take it to (i think it's probably too much work for the guys at work) and after all that i will needto find a good Dyno to tune her.

Anyway, i've rambled on enough I'm glad to finally be part of the community and look forward to being part of this community!
