So are your plans for your car this winter? For me since I am deployed it doesn't matter much, but by the time I get back, if I decide to keep the car I am going to finish out the body kit w/ sti splitters, carbon 203 lip, sti or chargespeed sideskirts, jdm rear spats w/ an apr carbon diffuser and maybe an s203 carbon wing. I am thinking abotu getting some carbon mirrors, but haven't decided yet. I am thinking of just adding meth injection and an ntercooler kit and calling the performance good minus an upgraded clutch and ra trans. What is everyone else thinking?

ppg gear set and new clutch for sure...then prodrice exh...if i find a deal i may get another "big" turbo...or i may just buy a bunch of snowboarding gear...:p

laptop, streettuner software(when it comes out), big rear sway bar, replace most of the hoses in the engine bay(for that clean look), clutch/flywheel, and most likely motor and tranny mounts+ save mucho money to get protune finished

Summer rims, winter tires maybe. Tint, debadge, detail. Short list this year.

fmic, possibly clutch, possibly RS hood swap, pro-tune on PDX's dyno

for the tc i just wanna lower it
for the trix try not to get a bigger crack on the windshield haha

This winter I plan to find a good deal on coilovers and have those ready to be installed by early-spring. Next month I'll pick up some winter-beater-wheels for the tires I already have. Then over the winter I'm going to do some changes to my rims I have now plus decent summer tires. Hopefully I can put some money away for autoX rims/tires for spring time too. :D Oh yeah, and after I buy all that I want to buy a condo in the next year, or less.

make my rims look like this; except a red lip instead of polished.

Looks like I'll be working a lot of overtime this year!

Paying down the car and going skiing. Thats about it.

STi Pink Suspension, and summer tires this spring. Maybe some rims depending on money situation.
Tell you what brother, I'm freaking short timing over here. I get back stateside in a month. Good luck with your deployment and stay safe.

Changing alot of diapers

Paying it off little by little, and getting a set of wheels so I dont butcher my bbs's during the winter!

Downpipe & new TDC map, STS, and will probably wait till spring for new wheels.

Crawford Performance GT35r Big turbo kit, Exedy clutch & fly wheel.....thats about it.

Buying diapers and paying it off. (real) PDX tune after the move to Vancouver, WA next year.

hope not to wreck the car... heh... thats about it.

Pay the car off. And some auto-x related mods.

Hehehe... Full Airbag suspension with six link rear end, Murdered out! Not on the Hoe tho.

Making sure it still will work at -40 F.

Pay the car off. .


that is always the best feeling!!!:banana:

That'll be sweet!! Who are you going to have tune it?

My winter plans... Studded Tires (Yes Uncle Tribal I'll listen), shooting for 3M vinyl and first stage suspension and a real sound system. The spring... wheels and summer tires. I might be out of warranty by then so maybe I'll get to thinking about an exhaust :):banana:

I'm looking at getting a downpipe, TEIN Coilovers, rims and tires, and do some light body work.

Curb Feelers, Fender Skirts and Wood Paneling...

This winter I will be working on the driver skill mod.

Fuel Rails, Meth injection, 1000cc injectors, Seats, Roll cage, New Block, Driver skill Mod, and a Dyno Tune all done in Denver

Changing alot of diapers

Werd same here, gotta another coming this jan :)

Curb Feelers, Fender Skirts and Wood Paneling... ooh hellz yea pimpin like ya mean it!!

my plans, trade-in silver slug for new sti or forester sport :devil:

fmic, possibly clutch, possibly RS hood swap, pro-tune on PDX's dyno
ya... and to add to that..

possibly a larger TMIC :D
alky injection (most likely)
fuel pump, injectors, retune for above
possibly 18's for summer and BBS 17's for track (still undecided)

ooh hellz yea pimpin like ya mean it!!

my plans, trade-in silver slug for new sti or forester sport :devil:

Forester Sport! Forester Sport! Forester Sport!:banana:

You know you can't live without a Shag'n Wag'n:D

And yea... I will be adding a few things over winter.

Changing alot of diapers

You have no idea the quantities that will be coming your way... totally worth it though!

ooh hellz yea pimpin like ya mean it!!

my plans, trade-in silver slug for new sti or forester sport :devil:

Forester... Goes better with the wagon image. forester sport is the turbo right? ya, do that.

Psssst, make ya a deal on a leggy? :lol: :lol:

lower it
black stock rims w/ red lip
girlfriend


Well, I can guarantee I'll have at least two of those three! :huh:

hmm maybe bigger turbo bigger fuel pump and maybe a better intercooler and some gauges and a good tune and maybe wheels who knows

Baby seat

I already have the baby seat mod...this winter I plan to do nothing to the Baur, I'm hoping to store it somewhere that isn't at my house since it can't live in the garage in the winter like it does in the summer. Since the driveway is on a hill if I had to move it out to get something off the side of the garage (like the christmas tree) it would never make up the driveway back in the garage. Last winter I put 2 car covers on it and parked it in the yard next to the driveway, but I didn't like doing that very much. It also made it a pain to snow blow the driveway since it took away a good 7-8 feet of snow storage space...

Not doing anything to the Subie except studded tires. This winter is devoted to the 1953 Chevy pickup father-son project my pop and I have planned. It's been on the back burner for a few years now but my Dad ain't gettin any younger... neither am I! Not to mention time is taking it's toll on the ol' Chevy too, sittin' out at the edge of the woods. Time to save her!

This winter I will be working on the driver skill mod.


ahhh i'll follow that one ensuite!!!!!!:banana: Empty lots here i come!!!

You know you want the new STi. it will would require less work then a forester to autocross it...

then again... haven't seen a forester autocross since 2005.

Making sure it still will work at -40 F.
damn i dont even want to think of that :(

hmm maybe ill swap in a 20V 4age motor with ITBs in my car or something

Choices, choices, so many choices. I'm thinking I am gonna leave the suspension mods till spring/summer, but eventually will put Tein H-techs, and Cusco sways. SS brake lines, Hawke pads, and blue fluid. Paint the calipers black. Maybe trade/sell my 18" polished black 10 spokes w/ polished lip for either hyper black or royal bronze colored rims.

But I will be working on the DP. I might paint my stockers royal bronze too though. I guess I really like the royal bronze with OBP look. But then I'd get hyper black, or some sort of black, summer tires for sure. I want to clear my lights. Thinking about WI. Remote start soon. Window tinting sometime.

Anyone ever paint their lgt stock grill? remove the crome, and paint it the body color? I would like to do that.

A pretty large project, but should keep me busy on the weekends.
