Slap Dash's Driveway
OUT WITH THE OLD, IN WITH THE NEW
Introducing my new ride: My newly Beloved MY13 2013 IMPREZA WRX STI SPEC R. Purchased stock as a rock & with mods already on the cards even after only owning her for a very short time. The smile everyday I get to drive; goes from one ear to the other Current Mods: Perrin Radiator Shroud (Red) Perrin Boost Control Solenoid Shroud (Red) Perrin Radiator Stay Kit (Black) Perrin Strut Tower Brace (Red) - Now rare & discontinued Invidia Q300 Titanium CBE Replica STI Front Lip & Side Skirts Planned Mods in the not too distant future: Perrin 22mm Front Adjustable Sway Bar Perrin 22mm Rear Adjustable Sway Bar Kartboy HD Front Endlinks Kartboy HD Rear Endlinks Whiteline Alloy Lateral Locks Killer B Oil Pickup Killer B Oil Baffle Catch Can system (Unsure what type of setup at this stage to run). DBA 4000 Slotted Rotors Pics: (more to come) ------------------------------------------------ Hey Guys, have been around Perth-Wrx for quite some time now & haven't had the opportunity yet to throw up my own driveway thread since my introduction. I said in my Introduction thread I didn't want to dive too early into modding. However like anyone over years has said; the mod bug eventually hit & bit down hard & exceptionally fast. A matter of fact, It still to this day is bitting down very hard. My Beloved MY06 2007 IMPREZA WRX: I Bought it Stock as a rock with a TBE & a Tune to complement, it came with a full service history also which led me to the buy. Having done a few Motorkhana & Autokhana events along with a few Track Days at RAC (Good ol working for the RAC ) the Mod Bug Bit & My first mod was Coilovers. I made a conscious decision to upgrade the handling of the WRX to complement the AWD system. I wanted to improve Breaking & Handling before I dove into the power aspects of the WRX. As quite a few do say quite regularly. "Improve Breaking & Handling first, No point having more power if the car can't stop or handle it." Current List of Modifications: Pioneer GPS/Audio System STD Coilovers Strut Bars (Front & Rear) Whiteline Sway Bars (22mm Front & 24mm Rear) Whiteline Roll Center Kit Whiteline Anitlift Kit Whiteline Lateral Link Locks Whiteline Front Adjustable Ball Socket Spherical End Links Whiteline Rear Heavy Duty End Links X-Force High Flow CAT MMS Custom Turbo Back Exhaust Walbro Fuel Pump Exedy Stage 1 Organic Clutch Red Silcone Engine Piping S204 Replica Rear Spoiler (Replaced with STI Spoiler) S204 Replica Front Spoiler Lip (Currently off the car due to steep driveway @ Rental) STI Fog Light Covers Enkei 18" Tuned by STI Rims, Wrapped in Toyo Proxes 4 Tires Custom Fiber Glass 3 Gauge Center Dash Pod X 3 Genuine Defi Racer Gauges HKS Water Temp Probe & Silicone Piping Version 8 STI Cluster With Shift Light STI Brembo Conversion DBA 4000 Front + Rear Goodridge Braided Brake Lines CIC Thermal Coated X-Force Equal Length Headers & Up-pipe Cusco Mounted STI Rear Diffuser 2006 STI Spec C Top Mount Intercoooler Grimmspeed 3 Port Electronic Boost Solenoid Killer B Motorsport Upper Turbo Coolant Reservoir JDM STI interior Swap (Seats F & R, Doorcards & trim) Red Perrin Radiator Shroud Perrin Upper Radiator Brackets Kap Industries Fire Extinguisher Bracket & Tagged Fire Extinguisher IHI VF34 P18 Turbo ~ Made 290HP with 433nm Torque @ 1.1 Bar/15psi on Mao Hub Dyno Future Mods if time Allows & if im still loving the ride: In the Words of Jeremy Clarson: Gearbox conversion to either a Dogbox or 6 Speed Koyo Radiator Engine Work & Further Management Now Time for some Pic's:

Also I reckon 6spd with R180 rear diff. I reckon the dog box will be abit noisey for a daily.
