Scott: I wish! The M Coupe has been my favorite for the longest time, but you have to remember where I live . It's warmer fewer months than its cold up here .

Mike: Yep. I talked to my guru WRX buddy. He has ~$1000 into his (engine wise) and has shaved 2 full seconds off his 1/4 mile time. He now runs mid 12's with a JDM turbo, turboback exhaust, and a Cobb Reflashed ECU (accessport). After riding in his car more or less solidified my decision. I've never launched harder than that in my life. AWD launches are teh win!!1

Is it really that cheap to boost up a Subaru? Freak I just want a hatchback for College and hauling the supplies around.

Yeh, it is. Most of the parts are lightly used (a lot of STi/WRX owners have rather deep pockets and switch mods up often, hence, selling used products on forums), but I haven't really heard of many problems, or any for that matter, as long as you do your research.


I love Honda/Acura, but it costs far too much money to make them fast. Plus, you can't really go wrong with AWD in the North East .

Same here. I just loved my Accord but it takes an engine swap, turbo or nitrous just to run a 15 flat.

Of course it's partially a luxury car, and you have to pay a bit for the included maintenance. My sister just got an E90 and they're great for her purposes. I would get an STi or Evo, but perhaps you don't like the image they carry.

J: I do like them, but after this car, I prefer a more sleeper like stance. Plus, the reviews on the LGT have been great.

GL with the Suburu! Evos do tend to attract attention unless you keep the mods low and take off the wing.

I have since added a pair of driving lights to the bullbar, slaved to the highbeams. The fog lights are hella dynaview (slave to steering). and the projectors are HID.
