sessi upgrade is sessi...sammich approves

[quickdodge®]

Nice downgrade. But it has 4 doors, so that's cool. Later, QD.

[WFOdime]

I saw you at advance auto the other day.

I like the upgrade.

[uho]

veddy nice i lke it. vids please

[Z0_o6]

Weak shit. :D




You just need an Accessport now! I can hook you up!

Thats the plan. I was planning on just buying a used, unmarried AP, but if you can hook it up, I'm all ears. I work at a Subaru dealer, so I've got some resources too lol

[ATK_Designs]

I like both so I can't complain. Congrats on the new car :)

"Deff" an opinion-only comment. Like the OP said, to each his own. Later, QD.

[Z0_o6]

Identity_Crisis, ygpm

as do you.

[Genji-Sama]

I definitely like the S2k more, but boost and AWD definitely is more fun soooo.... eh. Still sexy car

[osnap]

Literally every single person who has told me they liked the S2k better is a Honda owner, which I find kinda interesting, fwiw. Let's just say I expected to miss the S at least a little initially... And to put it bluntly, I haven't. At all. lol. The STi is a completely different animal. I'm hooked.

[VIP Style]

nice upgrade, I hate hondas

[SeePlusPlus]

Love it, I love sti's in silver too. Because silver is the best

[VIP Style]

The STi is a completely different animal. I'm hooked.

Oh I bet it is! I love the STI mainly because they have such a unique sound. You can tell the difference between the sound of a STI versus most other imports.

[fivex684]

Looks really clean and seems to be a "tastefully" modded car.

i get that alot too man..honda people say they liked my em1 better than my evo

[Z0_o6]

I love Honda's. FUCK Honda's vs. a STi and most other badass cars.

[VteC power]

nice upgrade man, i wish i had the money

[osnap]

i get that alot too man..honda people say they liked my em1 better than my evoLOL. I love EM1s, don't get me wrong... but c'mon! It's not even CLOSE. Clean evo btw :goodjob:

[osnap]

Just got done debadging my trunk, btw - also added an 05 STi emblem.

before (compliments of google)

[Drummerboy]

Agreed on silver being the best. This is also my favorite STi, visually. Any plans yet? I hear cobb's STi stuff is nice. I'll have an STi after college, or after the Prelude goes up in a ball of fire, whichever happens first. Oh, and btw, I love my bastard Honda (Prelude), but STi>S2K aaaaaaalllllllll day.

[BlackDubs]

I really like the new. Good choice.

[QUOTE=osnap;39078248]Literally every single person who has told me they liked the S2k better is a Honda owner, which I find kinda interesting, fwiw.

Remember, though, that I'm not your typical Honda owner. I just like your S2k better. That's all. And I never put down your newer car. I do like it as well, man. Later, QD.

[Mirage_Turbo]

haha love the sti! Im the white sti in your sig :P I hated that run, i had no hoodscoop and bad pads, i never should have went :(

[osnap]

by ur sig i could tell it was a matter of time.lol what do you mean? cause i like to play in the mountains with the big boys?

Later, QD.Oh believe me, QD, I'm well aware that you're far from the typical JDM-tyte-y0 Civic owner. The pattern exists nonetheless, I just genuinely found it interesting. Thanks for the kind words.
haha love the sti! Im the white sti in your sig :P I hated that run, i had no hoodscoop and bad pads, i never should have went :(lol what are the odds - that was a WHILE ago. That was my first trip up to Blood mountain, too - I was skurred!

[2turbo4u]

Oh Snap! what a power move on your behalf, keep boost alive!


P.S
I luv it!

[Mr. Clean]

i am a honda owner and i approve this upgrade. just about any wrx/impreza has been my goal for the last 3-5 years. but alas, the funds never grow lol.

[Bacon]

I like the STi better but my opinion comes from being a father. More room is always better. :goodjob:

[teglover101]

This is also my favorite STi, visually. .

x2

[alpine_aw11]

Noice. Definitely an upgrade I dream about. Being broke is garbage.

[SloWRX]

Very nice upgrade! Just wait till the power starts adding up, I'm on my 4th Subaru & still get surprised :goodjob:

[JessAlba452]

Nice sooby-roo! ;)

[Z0_o6]

Get you a GT30R or FPRed, run E85, make metric shit-tons of power. Profit.

[SandM]

i r disapointed, but to each his own.... sti > s2k for a DD + fun, I just have too much fun driving mine everyday

[Hondatypr636]

Clean ass STi

troooof.. I miss the power of my sti.. nothing else.....

[osnap]

thanks ladies.

dubs gimme your old parts. i know you've got shit lyin around.

[roxie911]

Very nice, Chris. I'm glad you got a car you're happy with :)

[osnap]

oh, don't get me wrong - I loved the Ferrar-err... S2000. It was just time to move on. And I'm glad I did. Hurry up and get that 10th Anniversary!

HAHAHA!! Time to move onto something that's...uh....hellafast?! LOL

ANYWAY...I won't be getting a 10th Anniversary. Just a normal 2000 model. I should have it by either Tuesday or Wednesday. I'm sooooo excited!!! :D

[Sinfix_15]

Convertible to 4 door is not an upgrade. Did you have kids or something?

[toxxxic]

it's about time you get a manly car!!!! first the del sol, then an s2k... sheesh! i'm glad you finally discovered your man parts ;)

i love it! :) only thing that would make it better is if it were white!

[csmiths]

i can honestly say that im thinking about selling the si for a sti. they are a blast to drive

[osnap]

Convertible to 4 door is not an upgrade. Did you have kids or something?lol... no. and i fail to understand how the number of doors alone constitutes whether or not someone has upgraded, but - once again - to each his own.
it's about time you get a manly car!!!! first the del sol, then an s2k... sheesh! i'm glad you finally discovered your man parts ;)

i love it! :) only thing that would make it better is if it were white!lol... i owned 2 sols, actually... we just... um... don't talk about the first one. And the Z was kinda manly I guess, just slow as shit. I was originally looking for a white one, but this car was so perfect I just couldn't pass it up.

i can honestly say that im thinking about selling the si for a sti. they are a blast to drivesounds like somebody's been stealing Robert's keys when he's not looking. I say do it! Feel free to drive mine sometime. We have a white 06 here at the stealership with 74k or something like that - sticker is 22, but I could probably hook it up for 20/21 depending on what we have in it.

[VooDooXII]

Oh hot damn! Congratulations man! I like the Subaru over the Honda.

[crxsiguy]

im glad, I guess driving jonathans car all weekend was the nail in the coffin! But Congrats and i should be back with you guys real soon ! lol

[DeeAOne]

Upgrade in my book. Nice car man. One day I'll get one. :goodjob:

[osnap]

im glad, I guess driving jonathans car all weekend was the nail in the coffin! But Congrats and i should be back with you guys real soon ! lollol his slow shit? naaahhhh. just found the right deal at the right time, and decided I was ready to actually have some power lol. Finally getting rid of that Neon, huh? Hurry up! lol

[95integra123]

damn that sti looks pretty bad ass

[boosted_nonv]

definitely a upgrade:goodjob:

[crxsiguy]

lol his slow shit? naaahhhh. just found the right deal at the right time, and decided I was ready to actually have some power lol. Finally getting rid of that Neon, huh? Hurry up! lol

lol i am almost certain that the "neon" would shake you up a bit, but i would take the Sti anyday! lol

[osnap]

Oh I don't doubt for a second that its fast lol (well... going straight, anyways). I know better than that. Still, like you said - I'll stick with the Subie lol. I'll be Cobb stage 2 later this week: ~350hp/385tq at the crank. How much faster would you say the SRT-4 is, exactly? lol

[1SICKLEX]

Both are nice. Congrats!

[crxsiguy]

it beat a Ball bearing 20G Sti FROM a 20 roll! if that tells you anything

[osnap]

lol, damn. sounds quick haha

[crxsiguy]

he works at swinging Richards!

[osnap]

you still jealous that they said you weren't pretty enough?

[Liltoua]

Good Choice my friend! I wouldn't miss the S2K at all...except for the fact that it's a convertible, but I'm sure the power will bypass all of that LOL. Love it!

[Catnip]

Deleted the posts containing work location... LOVING the new whip!

[BexSican 408]

I drive a Honda && I love this thing! haha.. Nice pick up.

[osnap]

Thanks Evan :goodjob:

[justinxecushyn]

Yo man Welcome to the Club. That was definatly and upgrade. More usable space, awd, turbo, best color ever...i could be biased though lol:

http://i50.photobucket.com/albums/f321/justinxecushyn/Scooby/100_2610.jpg

[UpSideDownDesi]

nice upgrade, what the future of it?

[On_Her_Face]

Looks good, throw a big turbo on there and come play.

[osnap]

nice upgrade, what the future of it?Cobb stage 2 in a few hours after I meet up with Identity_Crisis (lol). After that... decent coilovers to replace the Eibach struts/springs, a few little things here and there (STi limited lip, audio, some chassis braces, maybe re-do the slightly purpling tint, etc).... then in a little while, when I prove to myself that I can handle the 350hp/385tq crank stage 2 power without immediately going to jail (lol - one of the reasons I didn't buy a C5 Z06), and money really starts burning a hole in my pocket, I'll look into going batshit crazy like everyone is egging me on to do - big turbo, meth, all the fun stuff. The car is my DD though, so it will remain relatively mild.

[Catnip]

After riding in Identity_Crisis' car... 35r or don't even bother ;)

[osnap]

Haha we'll see, we'll see. It'll be a while before I have a Z06 killer on my hands, but maybe one day.

Should of gone with the LS6.

[UpSideDownDesi]

Man this is going to be one sweet looking blobeye STI. Do give E85 a tought before you big trubo and meth. 380whp+ & 400wtq+ on quick spooling VF39 with just injectors, FPR, and fuel lines...can't beat it. I wish i would have gone that way before going rotated. Big turbo is nice, rarely you use full potential of it.

PS. I got a meth kit you can have for cheap coz i don't plan on using it.

[osnap]

Should of gone with the LS6.I paid it some serious thought. HOWEVER... I spend all of my free time in the mountains, where the STi is perfect. AWD makes it sublimely easy to tear through mountain passes, whereas the tail-happy Z06 is both WAY less forgiving, AND shows its size a lot more when things get really tight. Plus:

Space, space, space - a backseat and a huge trunk are a really nice convenience
The STi interior is 100x better in my humble opinion
I get all Subaru parts at COST, and am good friends with several master Subaru techs - if something breaks, I'm in a good position, and I have an awesome knowledge base to tap into.
STi's can reach LS6 power relatively easily with a little bit of cash
I got a stupid deal on this car - I could have bought a decent Z06, but we're talking 80k+ miles - not a huge deal on an LS6, but lower is still nice.

The LS6 is a nasty bitch, and the power is addicting (no replacement for displacement!), but all of those other factors led me to the STi.

I am obsessive when it comes to research, and I will go with the setup that is best for me. And quit throwing big numbers out there, you're making me power-hungry lol. We'll see - its gonna Stage 2 for a while, so nobody get too excited yet haha.

[Z0_o6]

I can honestly say that the cars aren't fun until they are at 400+ WHEEL hp. :D



That's why I'm going to an LS7 soon.

[osnap]

Haha... crazy bastard. Although some S2k guy in the UK shoehorned an LS7 in there recently... with nitrous. Now THAT is insane.

[Z0_o6]

Call me crazy, but I think I'd rather just have the whole C6Z06. So.... want a civic to go with your sti? Spinnin is winnin!

[osnap]

You throwin it in for free with the accessport? lol

[Z0_o6]

umm. yeah i can't even joke about that. LOL

Lol "a completely different animal" i know what you mean man, i was used to driving around in stock civics and then one day i drove in a Subaru Sti and that's the exact word that came to mind "animal"
but anyways congrats on the car and nice UPgrade :goodjob:

[atlxpat]

so you have a full turbo back with no tune/ecu piggy back? i'd be careful
looks clean, hope you enjoy

[HeLLo iM iZzY]

Sick STi...



Nice downgrade. But it has 4 doors, so that's cool. Later, QD.

Are you always this negative? I have never seen a positive post from you. Later, nice job always signing off too.

[takume]

Nice upgrade, the sti looks tastefully done.

[Z0_o6]

Thanks to Identity_Crisis, I'm now officially running Cobb's Stage 2 map.

You are very welcome. I had a blast shootin the shit!
