Wow this build is incredibly close to the goal I have for my '04 and you're doing a fantastic job with it. I just installed an RA block so now I'm planning my next round of OEM+ style upgrades. What brand and where did you buy that steering wheel? Mine is in pretty terrible shape.

Rear spats help balance out the front, I'd say go for it!

My Credit card got loose again today.. paid for the new Front Bumper fairings ... Love that they come Painted 51E. Got some more JDM goodies on the way... I will let it be a surprise for when it actually shows Up. VA STi Intercooler showed up also..leaving it in the box til I need it. It will have a 8500 mile VF48 turbo and BOV. ... so kinda refreshing everything. .. Probably will be one last surge before I put it up for the winter..I almost drove it to work today..58 degrees. Perfect weather, but I opted to keep it at home...Not to many 'good' days left till the inevitable White stuff comes..Then for sure it will NOT see..have my daily Subaru for that... .. Bill |

Just got off the phone with K&N... I needed some replacement parts for their intake... Hose clamps and a hood sealer/gasket..
What a great experience.. I was fully prepared to pay for the things I needed.. but their customer service rep said, "Nope its under our 'LIFETIME' Warranty program.. We will get this order out to you immediately".. Wow wasn't expecting that ...How cool is that.. they 'really' do take care of their customers.. AWESOME.. sooo new hose clamps and Hood sealer on the way.. Bill |
