This car needs to come out already. I'm so ready for some AWD turbo power again. The STi is in the garage broken and might stay that way until after the RS comes out.

What happened to your STi?!?

depends on which one. lol. my first 02 i went balls out on. upgraded turbo, front mount, full catless exhaust. The other 2 were just turbo back exhaust and suspension.

Did either one of the other 2 happen to be an 05 model?
Always loved the facelift 05+ got but some folks I know think it looks ugly.

Head gasket issue. This time I'm going to O-rings the block during the rebuile. I'm in no real hurry to get it back on the road.

are you planning to use this rebuild time to add any more things to it? good opportunity

No, the car is done. Needs a bigger better fuel system but IMO, nothing more for street or track. It was a beast all of its 18,000 miles. A couple of them @ 36 psi too.

In for seeing pictures/videos of your Subi, always been a fan of them.

How bout a quick freeway onramp video

and some under hood shots

And my three tunes: Racegas, pump + meth, and straight 91.

Pretty awesome that was accomplished with 91! Beats having to rely on anything more since 91 is found just about anywhere you go.

What future plans do you have for it?

CA 91 gas blows but that's all we get. I was limited to 18-19 psi on straight 91 and around 24 with 91 + 50/50 meth injection. I also had boost control issues and couldn't hold more than 22 psi at redline (8,000-8,200).

The next plan is to upgrade the fuel system with a surge tank and external pumps, ID1300 injectors, and a motor refresh and new head gasket. That may not happen until after I get the RS though >
