may i ask, what vlt tint do you have?

[mangostick]

went 35% all around. The fronts are illegal by Va law.. but unlikely I'll get harassed about it locally because its still pretty light. The pics make it look a bit darker than it really is. Outside of the Hampton roads area though, yeah I might catch some crap for it. .. either way I'll just pay the ticket and move on.

Not much roll there.

Not much roll there.

considering sticky Hoosiers and oe springs- I'd have to agree

the Koni's however are just shy of full stiff front/rear and the front bar is set to full stiff (26mm)

Big Sky, big fan of your car! Is it an 08 or 09? How much is the front swaybar helping in autox?

[Big Sky WRX]

thanks- it's a 09; a bunch- in Stock class your only allowed to change the front sway bar, w/ a Mac P strut up front our cars lose a bunch of camber in turns which results in low grip/understeer- increasing the roll stiffness up front really helps reduce that camber loss- ideally you would do it w/ springs and bars, but in Stock class you have to use your oe springs- which makes the front bar even more valuable from a handling standpoint.

Sway bars n links.. shifter bushings.

so far thats all I've done to mine and I couldn't be happier. Completely transforms the driving feel of the car. Super tight and accurate handling and the shifter bushings take out ALL the vagueness in gear transitions. Like it should have been from the factory.

Next I'd like to have a performance alignment done.

Well......

finally after lots of working hard and saving I purchased the following:

Perrin Downpipe
BC Racing Coilovers
Cobb Knob (Red)


So I am quite excited at this point!! Just wondering anyone here go from stage 1 to stage 2 on their 09 WRX yet?

Just wondering how much difference there really is?

Thanks!

A lot of people say it's like driving a whole new car, especially when you do suspension too. I think it really depends what stage 2 tune you go with as well. Torqued Performance makes a really good tune for the 3G WRX!

I've got a TurboXS cat-back in the mail now. I'll be getting the matching DP once I get new wheels and tires. My stock tires are right at treadwear. :X
