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)

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