geez man, nice pick up

[Anrasmor]

I've always loved the old 2.5rs. Great buy man. Also very fun track.

[Passenger]

I really just hate you sometimes.

[Sucka]

damn getting car left and right!

[T_Virus]

looks similar to my brother's 2.5 RS. Somehow I've always liked this body better than the newer ones.

[vicx52o]

nice pick up!

[Distance]

what made you get another one?

[Guardian]

thanks everyone


what made you get another one?
i love my other one and this is even better. its a blast to drive and sounds great. it also turns a lot of heads.

[K20wagon]

Have always loved the older 2.5 rs. And I hate you man why do you always get good cars lol.

[Jukka]

mmmm...love RSTIs. There are a few of them that come in to my shop, but because of our crappy weather, most of them are rotted out pretty bad.

[shadowmd]

lookin good. 6spd is something i really want to do to my subie. $4500 is a lil steep for a mod tho lol

[Distance]

thanks everyone

[civictype_r04]

Lokks good..... I alway liked those imprezas!

[shadowmd]

what made you go with the hks over a bellmouth dp like the invidia?

[Guardian]

I got the dp(used)and up(new) local for $50.
I'll sell my wrx catless up pipe for about 30$ so ill break almost even or maybe make some if I can sell my stock dp.

Their is a lot of rumor, myth, speculation in the Subaru community.. If boost spike is a issue with the STOCK like flat flange design I'll either make a detected wg dump tube off the flange or sell it for more then I bought it for.

[gtimportfanatic]

looking good man..

[Guardian]

updated 1st post, ive done more stuff to the car and now im refinishing some 06 wrx wheels
