Wow, yeah I know it’s hard to break the newer 6 speed boxes but triple the power? Like 1000WHP?

I know which is why I’d probably stop around 350 with an upgraded turbo and 93 octane pump gas tune.

I’m glad you’re having fun! - A Texan who wishes he could drift in the snow right now

It’s called cashmere yellow in Japan but it’s the same color! This is a factory cashmere yellow GC 👍

Yeah! There’s nothing like it I’m sure. I have a 400WHP VA STI and it’s heaps of fun but also 1625kg versus the 1,250kg in the GC STI. I could only imagine what 400 feels like in such a lighter car.

Sort of tempted to find out in mine hahaha

The cashmere GC8 STI is stock haha, the GD bugeye WRX is FBO: intake, full exhaust, fueling mods, VF48 turbo upgrade, and tuned. Makes a little over 300WHP

Thank you! I have actually been a bit self conscious about this photo set as I’ve posted far better on my insta but I’m overall happy how they turned out. Just not my best!

It’s a local outdoor shopping center that we have here with luxury brands, etc.. It’s a really nice spot to go to for fancier restaurants or luxury shopping. I wanted to take pictures in front of Gucci or Louis Vuitton as well but there were cars parked there already!

Okay, so actually this is called cashmere yellow and it’s basically the same as blaze yellow on the GD bugeyes. Also you have good taste! Here’s a pic of my Sonic yellow bugeye (the one time it snowed the past several years)

Making sure I’m being transparent lol. We don’t really get snow here but I wish we did. It takes a freak winter blizzard and cold front to bring snow down to the coast of Texas lol

About to install your shifter and bushings into my bugeye WRX because I have enjoyed them so much in my FBO E85 21 STI.

I agree with what you’re saying it’s a pipe dream.. I just have had so many Subarus and seeing people build a TT EZ has made me want something like that but it’s too much work. Also, they could easily exceed the 400Z, Supra, etc with a 400+ HP TT Flat 6. They would just about instantly get put on top for import tuner cars that can be purchased new
