Default Finally intro myself

Hi all
I have been around these forums, but i thought i would finally show you my car and something about me
Shes a 2001 wrx(bugeye)
Bought her stock as a rock with 170,000's on the clock.....so far I have done prodrive axle back exhaust just for the sound for now, 22mm rear sway bar with h/d alloy links, new alluminum radiator cause the other cracked. Next week or one after im ripping the engine out to put timing belt(seals,water pump etc), organic clutch, rocker cover gaskets and new up pipe.

My name is harry and im a 4th yr mechanic for honda, actually qualify in 2months(YIPEE ). I have owned hondas previously, first one was a eg civic with a built b16 that i did myself, then a teg and now a wrx, Im hooked on subarus now. So yea im still a lilttle new to the subaru scene so bear with me. Heres some pics

Being a 4th year app. mechanic worries me with the threads you've posted so far, but I'll just bite my tongue & move on.

Okay let's do this:

- black 'check'
- bug 'check'
- annoyed that it's not yours covered in dust and missing an engine 'check'

Winning combination there mate.

Might suggest getting hold of the clear reflecters and indicators 'with chrome globes', really uplifts the look from the orange and works extremely well with black.

Welcome, That up-pipe looks cheap-cheap, hope you don't have fitment issues. Good idea getting rid of the pre-cat though, save's heartache and wallet ache later on. I would ditch those fiber gaskets and buy some genuine metal shim ones, or reuse the original ones.
