Update time!
Two weeks ago I walked into the bank and paid off the remaining balance on my car. This was the biggest cheque I've ever held in my life haha ;D It felt good driving home knowing the car is now officially - fully - "mine!" Untitled by Spencer, on Flickr A big dump of snow was in the forecast so I swapped over to my winters. Everything checked out fine when I swapped them over, and I didn't notice any nails etc. But then the following day driving home I had a tire blow out. Thankfully it happened just after I exited the highway and was only going about 20km/h and managed to pull over right away. This was pretty damn scary. Untitled by Spencer, on Flickr Then I was back to the summer wheels for a day, with the temperature dropping super quickly and 10-20cm of snow in the forecast for the next day. Untitled by Spencer, on Flickr Thankfully I have some awesome friends and connections and a friend whom owns a tire shop was able to overnight me a set of new winters so I had them the following day. They're Gislaved Nordfrost 200 Studded tires. 245/40/18 on the Enkei 18 x 8.5 rims.

Filmed a quick walk-around video showing each thing on my WRX as it currently sits end of summer 2017! Looking forward to next years mod, but for now - Winter Mode has been fully engaged! No more nice summer wheels for the next 6 months! :'(

Car looks awesome, man.
Are the tail light overlays that you got from Subispeed considered the light smoke version? Really liking the subtlety of them vs. the dark smoke. |

Installed the Sokumoto shifter bushing (+ shift stop), I had the Perrin ones in there - but am trying these out as they're a cheaper alternative!! So far very good!!

Some of you may have already seen my thread as I progressed and learned some graphic design work and illustrating cars. It really just started out as something fun I enjoyed doing! I made a few small die-cut decals of my own personal WRX, and had gotten alot of requests to essentially make the same WRX / STI but in the different color variations of the 15+ generation!
Here was the initial design I made: So now I've made them in all colorways!! The CWP and WRB all sold out in a day haha, but I have some more en-route from the printing company coming in a week or two! But if you're interested in any of the other colorways, you can pick them up here: http://www.ninjaxbart.com/category/mini-wrx-decals I designed these all from scratch using Photoshop and Illustrator on the computer, and submitted them to a company in the USA to have them printed and made! |

Received a package from Perrin this week! The new 2015+ WRX Turbo Inlet Hose! Just did a quick unboxing / opening of it, close-up look of it, etc. I'll be doing the install in a couple weeks. Doesn't do much performance wise, but is an upgrade in reliability from the OEM part.. Does not require a tune.
