    The Beginning of Great Relationship!!

    Yes!!! finally i was able to purchase my first Subie WRX. It's a 2004 WRX wagon. I had been doing some research and the subaru impreza wrx caught my eye once i saw it. Considering the fact that i've come from owning hondas and recently my last car being a 95 nissan 240sx. My only problem with all these previous owned cars was that they were all too damn small and i have 2 kids. Finally i found a car that is both Sporty and Spacious!! I'm in love.

    I just picked her up today she has 100k miles and i paid $8500. She seems to be completely stock. I will post pics soon but i felt like i should ask the subaru community what are good beginner mods for this car. Like whats the best base to start with. Any input will be appreciated. Thanks!!!!

    the world of modding a subaru is completely different than honda/nissan.

    Great relationship until you find out your wagon is a high maintenance gold digger that drains your account every week. But She'll always put a smile on your face =)

    Welcome.
    First mod, look up Vag-com cable flash method.
