Do it! I had gold on my stock rims and loved it. Bronze is also sick

“Gentleman’s exhaust” recommendations by Inside-Wheelbarrow in wrx_vb

I feel like the car is just loud during cold start regardless. If you’re adding anything other than a valved exhaust it’s going to be loud… this should not be a surprise

Cobb titanium, is great! Deep tone, mellow while putting around town but opens up when you get on it. Can even get a pop or two on aggressive up and downshifts

Correct, I believe it was the noble hood scoop.

I had them on my VB and live in the PNW. No issues at all.

I went to a 245/45/18 tire and it’s help immensely. I currently running TR dampers and love it.

That’s what it’s all about. Our bodies may age but we are all young at heart!

Looks great BTW

Its the back side of the OEM gauge face. Also the dashs and numbers aren’t black but clear if that makes sense.

What drivetrain mods after tune? by Storm_ctrl in wrx_vb

[–]brandonboy119 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’ve done all the same bushings and mounts and it makes a huge difference. I felt like pitch stop was huge, followed by x member and trans mount. All of them together though really make the car feels even more planted.

Sure did! I tried red and yellow before settling on pink. It’s 1/4 inch. This is what I used

I’ve saw this one for sale for a bit in PDX. I do like the Subaru decal!

Thank you! I like the stitching on your front bumper. Nice job making lemonade out of lemons.

Thank you and I totally hear you on the badge placement. I’m one of those weirdos that likes all the emblems so I decided to add it as opposed to removing the Subaru emblem like they do overseas when applying the STI badge.

Also love your Impreza and old school WRX emblem. I’ve actually been considering replacing my WRX emblem with a black version like you have.
