SupDooD's new (to me) STi

SupDooD · 11-07-2009, 02:53 AM

Hey guys finally got the upgrade to an STi.
Love it (stage 3 clutch tho..kind of a pain in the ass but I'm young so I'll be fine haha)
I only have pics from the seller...I'm gonna try and take some good storm shots tomorrow after work.

I'm on the fence about it. I can't tell if I really like it or if I'd rather get a limited

AlpineE30M52 · 11-07-2009, 03:29 AM

At least the limited doesn't have the rudders... I don't like extra lips at all, but this one takes the cake. The hood scoop is pretty interesting too. Any gain from having the one section facing forward?

Bov_Rider · 11-07-2009, 04:41 AM

amazing STI but i dont like the rims! lose them and get some 18" enkei RPF1. my imagination says that they will look amazing on that black sTI!

It supposed to cool the turbo, and the reverse part releases excess heat from the engine bay. Not a fan of the wheels but congrats on the sti!

RedefinedTR · 11-07-2009, 12:33 PM

I had that lip on my 07 WRX, I just painted it black, got dark wheels, and dropped it as low as I could for racing. Got TONS of compliments on it. I like that lip really. Just you need to paint it or put some tire shine on it to keep it black.

JDM_OBP · 11-07-2009, 01:20 PM

looks good man. love those super advans, just not on the sti.

agreed. they look awful on our cars.

i

at the people pointing out the lip when the wheels look worse!

Misanthrope789 · 11-07-2009, 01:27 PM

That car was for sale at a lot in Kent for the longest time, curious why they swapped the front end to an 07'. Clean car, but those wheels are icky

Le Saboteur · 11-07-2009, 02:04 PM

Yeah those wheels just don't cut it. They don't look awful in my opinion, but hopefully you'll invest in a different set of wheels.

howweirdo · 11-07-2009, 02:26 PM

the car is nice but the wheels and scoop gotta go. those wheels are simply horrid.

The smaller section pulls air over the turbo. The reverse section blows air from under the car over the windscreen. When you get to about 80mph air starts come out of the scoop from under the car. I would not put this scoop on a TMIC but since he is front mount, he is reaping the benefits.

traction · 11-07-2009, 02:35 PM

get rid of that ugly lip!

oguzcan_turkey · 11-07-2009, 02:38 PM
