Well, I finally got the chance to get some decent shots of my friend Chris' WRX (non-STi). After not having his car for nearly 4 months, we cruised down to GreddyFest to check things out and went for a little cruise down towards Laguna afterwards. Some of you guys probably saw the car when leaving GreddyFest (why speed around that corner anyways? ) Stopped by the Sawdust Art Festival spot and took a few shots. Mods are listed after the pictures!

For reference, once the PPG tranny gets thrown in and tuned, this should hit 500awhp on California 91 gas.

Comments & Criticism welcome!


Before tire shine

Probably my favorite shot from the set :D

I am loving the lines of the Impreza body in this shot.


That lip really pulls the front of the blob-eye together, for me at least; It really gets rid of that bulbous look.

Not a big fan of Subarus, but that one looks good except for the wheels imo.
