Well guys, sad day for JC.... got rid of both my commodores and got a wrx.
Dw I still hate subaru drivers.... so if you see a guy on the street of adel thats crap at driving his new wrx manual (been driving manual a whole 4 weeks now), my apologies lol.
You got the WRX EVO?
Comfy car, but its got me stuffed why they tried to make it sound sporty...
me too..... ive already ripped the exhaust off and put a twin cannon catty on it (not lebspec or wiggaspec).... just something with a a nicer note and thats helped it a bit.
Pretty much i dont like how they tried to mooch the name off the lancer..... its not even a real class spec, just means it has leather seats.
I had 4 choices for my car.... R34 which i really wanted, VY calais, this and a hsv grange.
Im young thought i'd get something non grampaspec, wanted a VY calais heaps but couldnt find a good condition one for right price, and as much as i love nissans and r34s..... was hard to find a non pre hooned one. On top of that easily stolen and i work in automotive engineering... every week someone has to come in and get their skyline un-defected. Cops love them, they love wrx's too but as soon as they see my leather seats and that im not driving it like an idiot......
I've only been pulled over once in her so far.
LOL
WRX is/was the most stolen car, and the car of choice for most wanker drivers.
But if you're happy with it, thats all that matters. Don't go winding the boost up too much, you'll pop it.
What year model is it?
It''s a nice car you are happy with ,who cares what it is.Aslong as all of a sudden you don't start saying how SHIT Commodores and Holdens in general no one will care
nah i hate stereotypers. a wanker driver is a wanker driver, an idiot driver is an idiot driver. Irrespective of what car they are driving.
And coincidently thats the majority of a fair few car types...
2005 Clubspec Evo 8
The pin system to cut out the engine is a nice feature, annoying but nice, rather keep typing in the number then having my car stolen.... i know it can be overridden using a screwdriver, 30 cents of electrical tape and some 4 gauge wire, but where I work in hindmarsh is full of crackheads... who wont know how to bypass it, so it prevents it beign stolen by anyone who isnt a pro and targeting the car which is a nice feature
Meh, If they're going to steal it, they will.
You might not like stereotypes but the coppers certainly do!![]()
oh eff yeah. i got the royal p plater treatment going through regency to convert her over to sa

need pix ........
will put up pix soon. out the front of my fathers clearing out my stuff for the new house atm was hoping to wire up the neons while clearing out my car gear...... ive accumulated so much... expect a for sale thread soon/
second day i had the wrx i took her round the bathurst track on the way back from syd where i got her. killer experience, even if it was sacreligeous in a ricer.
Last time before her i drove manual was in my sisters VN when i was 16... then was like f***k it and learned how to drive in my mates auto VR which i later bought, which i still miss.... 3" catty, hiflo and extractors on a buick 3.8 was beauty, wish I still had her for a daily.
Got some pix with teh wrx at bathurst, i dont wanna put up more pix til ive done mods to her.
Helped impact youth host their lan on friday...... and they knew about my car so my thank you gift was a pair of fluffy dice cubes lol
If you wire up neons, than consider yourself banished from here, LOL. No seriously.

amen to that. apart from minux the only other half decent wrx driver i've met was a devout mormon. I hope there are more that arent either of those 2...... but yeah... the numbers are pretty solid
There's a few good guys around. Most of them are cyclops though...
Yeah sounds good mate, pics pics pics! Dont see too many clubspecs around, i reckon they are nice.
im not leaving the forums tho, JC beats all the WRX forums ive found so far
Eegads !!!!
I vote for an instant ban ...lololo
THERE IS NO SUBSTITUTE FOR RAW HORSEPOWER !!
Yeah, JC is pretty good as far as forums go.
I've got an EJ25t powered Liberty myself..
You've probably got the best model WRX IMO.
First thing you should do is invest in a FMIC (Front mount intercooler). And a decent dump pipe, Don't be fooled by most of the fanboy's you don't need an ultra loud exhaust to get enough flow.
I've got a single 3" TBE with decent muffler under it. Got a very subtle lope at idle but you can barely hear it. As it revs you can but its nothing grotesque like most getting around.
not bad, im more a fan of the club spec 9. They look killer in black
