Lol they all know the story of me I'm sure from the infamous ex Tessa. Yup I finally left her over a year ago. I'm not going to get into details in public, but i will say this.... I should have listened. Lessoned learned.

In other news I've taken a break from software engineering and I'm once again following my passion. I'm selling Subarus!!!!

I only use Nasioc for the info and classifieds. Still some good information on this site after you sift through the trolls.

I'm a new member and have only had my bug eye wagon for a year but you guys have been infinitely valuable to me here on the Forum..because you can literally find anything and everything need or want to know about Subaru repairs,performance upgrade, troubleshooting... you name it. I have done about $4,000 worth of mods to my car during the year that I've owned it and probably would have spent a ton more on useless things or mods I wasn't ready for had it not been for researching and asking questions here. I wish I would have been around it the so called "glory days" bc you all seemed to have such a friendship and bond within the community. Reading posts all the way back to 2001 when guys were getting excited about the debut of the WRX platform (STi later in 2004) makes me feel a sense if nostalgia for which I have no basis, while also feeling as if I missed out and everyone in the current day has moved on... Maybe I was just born 12 years late

Probably the largest collection of Subaru information out there, so yeah I'm here a lot. Social Media may be the new thing, but you can't beat the organization and sheer volume of easily accessible materials that a forum like this has to offer.

I know there used to be a Subaru Meetup Facebook page, but I deleted FB a long time ago. Do you know if there are still meet ups in town?

I'm still here, just waiting to get my wagon back from AWD Tuning with the 207 in it, so I haven't been on here much.

Not that I ever was...

I still check in occasionally. Still looking for a nice 2002 wrb WRX. My wife has a 2017 Forester XT Touring. Looking forward to the power lumbar for the 2018 WRX. Might get me back in.

I still remember how crazy it was in the i-club days. Shame it has drifted so much. Still a vast amount of knowledge to be found here though.

Mostly "stock" for now.
I have...
ID1000's
07' STi turbo
07' STi TMIC
Grimmspeed EBCS
3 inch catless all the way to a Blitz Nur SpecR
Conservative 93 tune

I'm loving it! Ready for more power though so I just ordered a new brake system, coiliovers, KB STS w/linkage and every bushing for the car to get it ready for a catless upipe, Aeromotive fuel pump and aggressive e85 tune...what about you?

It's got an Ebay TD05 20g, 3in decat to a blitz as well, FIC 1100cc's going in, STI TMIC, I can't remember which EBCS, and it will be getting a conservative 93 tune as well, sitting on beatrush motor mounts. Air is coming through a short ram currently, that will get changed eventually, I'm still undecided on what to change it to. Has 04 STI suspension right now, will be getting aluminum control arms, 22mm Whiteline front and rear sways, and KB endlinks. Looking to later go to a 1.5 DOM TS and probably a 2.5in with catted downpipe to a stromung twin tip.
