Alrighty, it's been awhile since I've updated this thread. I've been a bit busy with work etc. Anyways, since a picture is worth a thousand words, here are some recent pics taken by a friend of mine. Enjoy
Aesthetics wise, I'm quite happy with how looks at the moment so I won't be doing anything else for a while in that department. I'm now going to shift my focus towards further improving my driving skills and the cars handling. In the next few weeks, I will be visiting Mao to get an alignment done as well as to get a centre roll kit fitted (to correct the suspension geometry as a result of lowering the car even further). Alignment wise, I'm going to be going for relatively aggressive specs (as the STI is no longer my daily driver). At this stage, I'll probably start off with: * 0 toe all round * -2.5deg F / -2deg R camber * Max caster at the front [What's everyone's opinion on these specs? I'm kind of going off Scary's recommendations in Ewrxion's build thread.] Following that I will be hitting up the Midvale Speed Dome in a couple of weeks with a group of mates so that should be fun. I'll see what else I can improve upon handling wise. I'll also start looking into stage 2 performance mods from now. At this stage I'll probably be looking at the following: * BBK-L ball bearing TD05-20g * Process West FMIC * Tomei equal length headers * Supporting fuel mods (injectors etc) I'm hoping to break the magic 300hp mark with these mods. After that I will take my time to enjoy and re-learn the car. I haven't decided on a stage 3 target yet.. However, the ETA on all this is probably not until very late 2012-early 2013. I still want to get some more track exposure before pursuing for more power. Anyways, thanks for reading. Tin Last edited by tinno; 26-04-2012 at 09:11 PM.

Agreed with Chad! Awesome sounding mods and plan.
Car looks great. Personally I would go for -1 deg rear camber though. -2 is a bit much and can unsettle the car a little at slowish speeds. IE midvale track.
