Default It's choice - not chance - that determines your [DE5TINY]

Well I guess its my turn...to show show off my MY00 WRX.

Bit of History: Stage 1
  • Bought the car bog stock in November 2005, had a fucked AFM which almost made me smash on my first cruise 3 days after buying it. Modding bug didnt take long to bite. First thing was to remove rear wing. Not long After the Stock MY00 Rims were blasted a painted in glossy white (miss em). Next was my custom catback exhaust thanks to the guys at mettams in midland, i asked for loudest and that exactly what i got, Thanks. After that the king springs made an appearance and set off the car nicely. Sourced a 3" catless Dump Pipe and that simply changed my definition of Loud and made me shoot flames on demand.

The Motor Died!

Stage 2:
  • With all these Breather mods, and the addition of a china spec massive top mount, the car began to run extremely lean (550k's per tank lean) and the inevitable finally happened, the motor pretty much melted, i almost felt like i had just experienced the pdiddy initiation...killing a motor, which was sort of comforting lol. Decided to go with another EJ205, slighly bigger turbo and all the supporting mods, including engine management...Took the car down to ASG too finish some things and had it tuned, with a result of 252hp/atw...me smilin!...3 days later my gearbox went (thanks again to the boys at ASG ) Sourced a 4.11 and that went in Straight away through another garage. Finally got some panel and paint work done fitted some aftermarket scoops and she is now as she was a Motorvation 08 - minus the overspray, with a big thanks to Andrew (hybridgx) and Wax On Wax Off car Detailing
