Nice ride my man! Oh the great white north.. Sorry to hear that man! Clean though, what did you use to lower your 2.5i??

Ive been looking at the classifieds to find some 08+ wrx/sti front seats but everything, I find is either overpriced or to far away and shipping would kill the value. Also I pulled my fenders today...or atleast I think I did. Surprisingly my fenders didn't bulge out nearly as far as I thought they would.

Thanks guys. I don't have rain guards.
My wheels GP GR2 Bronze 18x8, +35. I forgot the specs on the tires. But they're falken 452.

I love my car... But it's slow as **** ha ha

Thanks. I wanted a clean look so I guess I did the job right!
I used H&R lowering springs. I'm so happy to see a bunch of people who cares about their 2.5is....... Haha

Yeah I wasn't planning on getting any then an set popped up for a good price so I grabbed them and then traded rears so I have a matching set and the kid I bought them from had my old ones wrapped to match his Bride seats.

I got my front seats for $400 shipped. Little bit of talking on sitting product goes a long way!

Got sick of my $30 crappy Pioneer speakers so I picked these guys up today. These sound incredible. Running them off my Pioneer headunit with no amp. They are loud and clear. I originally wanted a set of components and not coaxials.. but I found these from a local seller for an excellent deal. Couldn't pass them up, and figured if I don't like them up front they can always be my new rears.





Here's the "quality" of the stock speakers for reference.

Those look sweet! How big are they and are you using an adapter? Not sure which pioneer headunit you have but be make sure your battery doesn't die! Lol. My x930bt went into anti theft mode and is asking for a password that was never entered -_- and now have to spend $80 to get it reset by pioneer :facepalm:

Ok.. Just you standard cooking your headlights in the oven story. I ended up washing my car the next day, woke up the morning after washing it an the whole headlight was fogged over. Had to rebake it and then add this poly urethane crud. Added an extra 8 hours of work..

They are 5.25".. I ordered some spacers/adapters today. Should be getting them within the week. For the time being though I have them rigged up with 2 screws. Surprisingly they are very tight.

So are you saying if the battery dies while install the headunit goes into an auto-lock mode? I have a AVH-p2300, not the best of models but it is all I really need. Maybe one of these days i'll go big with some high end unit. Until then I love this one. The red matches very well with our red interior lights too!

Oh okay I gotcha. And no I had bestbuy install it and then 8months later my battery dies and the next thing I know, my headunit is asking for a password -_- i have no idea what model that is at the moment but I'm sure if its a single din model you will be fine hah. And I bet, mine had a feature where I could have nearly any color I desired

Look in the headunit manual, there might be a universal code, for the user to then setup their own code.

Did my first autox event today..I think its safe to say that I just found myself a new hobby! Official results are not in yet, but I believe I came in first place for the first timers. I just wish I tried this earlier in the season.

I looked everywhere.... I have an appt w/ bestbuy tomorrow to have them try and fix it but I'm gonna make them pay the $80 service fee at pioneer if they can't do it. So we shall see.
Daingledangle -that's great man! Pretty soon your gonna want to do more modifying to your suspension haha

Mine is a double din DVD/touchscreen. Come to think of it my battery has died with it on and I ha never locked up. I also installed everything myself.

[fancyfootwork15]

Nice pics Havok! Good colors in the trees! Constructive criticism here.. Try to not have the trees look as if they are growing out of the car.

[Slow Scoobie]

@.HaVoK. You leave those burnout marks there? Wow I wish i could have you light bar and lights...But that fact my car sits so low im pretty sure i would destroy that bar with these ****ty roads in NJ. Is that red bandaid covering up a booboo or holding you bumper to your fender lol.

@fpshked Hey atleast we got AWD and dont drive a boring TOYota

Huh....well lucky you and props to installing it yourself
Havok-I love literally everything on your car but I just feel you got to many colors going on (gold wheels, red hella's, etc). IMO if you body color matched your Hellas they would look much better lol.
