Hey, what'd you do with your rear doors?

Photoshop? Your reflection disappeared.

Thumbs up

and the reflection of yourself and the side turn indicator. Are you going to do this or just thinking out loud?

Hey do one more.

keep the rear doors out. But take about 10" out between the B and C pillars.. Make a WRX shorty. Kinda like the Quattro Short Wheel base rally cars in 83.

I bet that would look really good.

Shorter than a stock 2door coupe. Not just longer doors..
The coupe has longer front doors and a different B pillar location.

Actually shorten the wheelbase...while keeping your doors short.
99 inches to 89 inches or so.

That is one of the best 2.5 RS pics ever, IMO. However, you need to slap some coilovers on it with a painted STi front lip. Maybe even some Sparco's or Recaro's since the seats are in the pic too.

Charlie, thanx for the comments I have some STi ver5 springs in the trunk awaiting installation, I'm still waiting on my camber plates. It will look much better lowered a tad.

I am also looking into a ver6 grille, and a p1 lip.

Also, the Cobb Tuning sticker isnt actually on the car any longer, I took off all of the stickers except "TXIC" on my rear window.



Rob, the gauges are mounted there because they are at my eye level, I sit VERY up right in my seat. Sometimes its not even reclined; sometimes, one click back at the most. My back hurts a lot, and this is the best way to avoid that, on the other hand, I believe that you shouldnt be too relaxed while driving, sitting that upright help you avoid that.

Instead of looking down and left, i only have to look slightly to the left.

it appears purple because of the off-white wall behind it.

you're the 2nd one to bring that up to me in as many days.

I dont really intend on making a P1 replica. I just want to get the best accessories ever made for the car (IMO) and lump it all onto my car.

like the ver 6 wing, the bigger grille, the p1 lip :drool:, the sti spats. the 22b vents.

I really think those are the best you can do in each of the different areas of appearance modification. Well, the WRC bumper, but that's a one piece item that would destroy my checkbook
