Hey guys, I'm Vlad and I drive a carbon bronze pearl 03 wrx.. daily driven on the sh!$tty roads of CT. I bought this car from Kevin in May '10, became good friends now even though he lives like 1500 miles away lol. I was thrilled to purchase his car and had to sell my '99 swapped GC that was also my pride and joy. But I wanted something newer and to spend my money on something different. Since I've gotten it I haven't been able to do a lot to the car since I was unemployed for half the summer and now I'm a full time student at UConn so all my money that I get now goes towards gas and what not. Anyways, there were a few things that I had to replace for the car.. my radiator decided to go on the way to WBM so I bought myself a Mishimoto radiator as soon as I got home, all four coilovers blew lol so I bought brand new BC BR's coilovers and just recently got them on finally. I also got some extra goodies such as JDM rainguards, Ureshi window spoiler, STi V2 lip so I could go lower, and other little things. I was planning on upgrading the performance, but I really don't know anymore at this point, just want to keep it clean and simple. I do have a lot more planned for the car in the future however!
