Default Just Got A '02 WRX - My Promise Inside

Well, last night I went and bought an '02 WRX (Platinum Metallic). I'm picking it up today because they're doing some work on it.

I'll still be posting on this board since I love S2000s so much, and here is my promise:

I promise to race all S2000s that come my way (after my break in period), and report the results on this site.

But be careful, because in about a month or so...my WRX is going all the way to Stage 4...

344 horsepower, redone exhaust, redone suspension, BOV, CAI, larger turbo, ECU, boost controller...



See you on the streets

Sweet! But how come you didn't want to wait till the redesigned front end of the STi came out? And I am not talking about the current STi with the standard projectors. Pic below:

This should be off-topic, don't you think (traitor)?

Man I love those cars! I almost got one before I got my S. I've raced a couple already and have been able to take them, but not by much. With that much power you should have alot of fun. Is that 344hp at the flywheel or the wheels?

Bah, forget what they say.. car enthusiasts never stick to one brand.. Besides, you can do a nice front end conversion on your WRX a few years down the road when the STi comes out and if you're going Stage 4, you'll be just as fast if not faster...

I may be getting the STi when it comes out to be my "practical" go fast sedan.. Nothin like the sound of vroooom PSHHH
