Kudos for doing something different though. Saw a pic of them up close and they are done well, just a different style. Something about crushed cars brings this style of wheel? Not sure what it is but it seems like the whole crowd runs low count fat spoke wheels

Edit please note I'm not flaming bein slammed. I get why people do it. Just commenting on the wheel choice.
Euro wheels
from the euro slammed crowd.

Subies do it occasionaly

Quick question, they only came out with the invidia n1 dual for sedans only right? Or is there a 5 door one available too.

Sounds to me like you're a shmuck who can't afford a 4000 suspension so you have to bash on other people's rides. Post a picture of your car

again this whole stance thing.

i'm on air cause i'm working on sway bars and handling which anybody on here should know that its a good investment. going for the coils just to lower as a DD you are an idiot. think about the things you buy and what you want to put your car through.

i've only had my car for 7 months and new to this and i'm still on air and do i care. NO cause i'm doing both power and handling before lowering.

I missed the air part. Either way I don't get why people think cars that look like awkward smushed hot wheels look good. I look it at the same way I look at ear gauges: there is a crowd that like them but I think it's idiotic.

Right, which is why I have RCE yellows mated with Bilstein struts, which is generally considered to be one of the best setups you can get for these cars. Not to mention my whiteline sway bars of thicknesses generally found to give the most neutral handling. My suspension mods serve a practical purpose. You can go ahead and spend $4k on a suspension setup that unless found on a bus will only impress ricers and "Dubbers" wearing flat bill hats.

And here's some pics:

I'm sorry you feel the way you do about my car. I've built it for me and yes I come from the VW crowd. However, I am a business professional wearing a suit and tie. I don't even own a hat with a flat bill. To each their own. I still dig your car as well and it too looks clean.

LOL i loled at the racecar comment.

it's funny, why do people hate so much, even im guilty of it at times. everyone builds their cars for their own liking. if you dont like it don't say he ruined it. ever think he doesn't care about going fast.

just saying.

OC your car is badass.

In my opinion taking a fast car and doing things to it that make it not able to go as fast as before by a significant amount is one definition of ruining a car.

I have no hard feelings. As I said before I built the car for me. I enjoy all sorts of cars and have respect for most of those who are interested in cars.

If you are talking about to my car you'd be mistaken. I'm putting down about 300 at the wheel and my suspension has improved handling over stock. While I may not have the best "track" suspension, I've tracked it for fun and it does fairly well. The car is my daily to have fun with and I've by no means made it any slower than stock

Hey guys this may not be the appropriate thread but I figured with all of us having the same model year's I'd ask a quick question. My 2011 WRX has about 39400 miles on it and today coming home I noticed when Downshifting and Decelerating in 2nd gear below 2K RPMs there was an odd noise (Meshing/Grinding/Rubbing) sound coming from the transmission area.

I did some research and some people said "Its normal Subaru Gear Boxes are Noisy" but before I start going Hog wild with my Stage 2 parts for this Spring I wanted to get some opinions. The last thing I want is to start making more power and have the Transmission take a dive on me.

Video of said noise is attached.

Got my first set of replica wheels I've ever had today. I have a wedding, honeymoon, and down payment for a house coming up this summer so I'm saving for that but got an amazing deal on these I couldn't pass up.
