My new weapon!

[WRCjosh]

Hey Fellas,

After i sold the rx7, i went about a month or so without a car, went through everything from s14s to legacy wagons. I finally decided on this MY99 WRX.

I bought it with a 3 inch catback system and a dodgy old man spec muffler... Second day i had it i slapped on a brand new stainless XFORCE muffler, HKS mushroom filter, turboxs blow off valve and a APEXI RSM for a bit of wank ;) Im enjoying it a heap, huge difference between these and the rx7, and so far ive been very impressed at its abillity to hose people with more power and RWD ;)

Next on the cards is a dumpipe and some cooler piping to go with the 100mm cooler i got.

[Boza]

[WRCjosh]

[Morgs]

Neat, new, and hopefully hassle free. I can see why you bought it.

[[RX2]]

[Syncope]

Get those skirts and pods colour coded and take the wing off.

Otherwise very nice.

[WRCjosh]

yeah thats one of the things on the agenda

[Brockas]

This car is faster than a '03 model WRX.

Hard to believe but its true, possibly has a high flow ;)


']ive been very impressed at its abillity to hose people with more power and RWD
Damn your subtle chops.
Yes i have ~230ish rwhp and got hosed by this car.

[TJ]

[Jazza]

Pre-01 models are faster than 01 and onwards.

No one would bother with high flow of TD04.

[confuzion]

nice man.. keep wing on i reckon :)

[Milhouse]

nice car, very clean.... i spot a well worn momo with previous owners skin left on it hahah :)

needs a good detail, when you SOR boys arent out @ garden city with ya popped collars, you could clean it :)

looks the goods, glad to see someone hosed paul 0-60 when he said he was unbeatable :D

[RB20ZED]

looks just like me mates one his is my00 there pretty fast for stockers

[[2_FLY]]

My mum had a 98 model which came with a 99 engine and brakes. That thing ****en flew. (ran door to door with my old torry when it ran a 13.72). I was told the 98`s were the quickest stockers cos the weighed the least. 98 was around 1340 i think and 99`s were 1440 from memory

[DRKWRX]

the MY00 are the fastest upto the 03 model then there bout the same.

[Boza]

[Foggy]

Hey. Awesome car man!! If I were looking for a WRX, this is definately the model I would buy looks-wise. I still think these model WRX's look the best, no matter how many more different spoiler kitted/headlight changed models they decide to bring out. Don't know about the rest of you, but when I think WRX, this is the model that pops into my head. Destined to be a classic. In years to come, I reckon these WRX's will be looked upon like the old Falcon GT's/Monaro's are today. Good choice!!

[WRCjosh]

haha, i lowered it just a little bit

[Ja50n]

Liftkit.

[Syncope]

Haha nice, where'd you get your coilovers?

[1JZNOSHIT]

Angle Grinder spec...

[WRCjosh]

i would never chop my springs.

[SimonR32]

yeah u paid someone else 2, haha

[1JZNOSHIT]

What sus have you got in in Josh? have u compressed the coilovers or something? Thats ****n low.....

WHen you ripping that dirty wing off??

[SLY_SX]

lookin at the pictures josh id put it to u that u have chopped them, cos in the second pic is Neils vl and when ever theres a dumped on its ass car around him, its usually cos he chopped the springs lol.

[WRCjosh]

i was at drivers house all day on sunday, springs may have been chopped, they may or may not have been mine, due to the fact my plates in the pic, id say they definatly HAVENT been chopped coz thats just dangerous and illegal, but u can make an educated decision for yourselves ;)

[1JZNOSHIT]

LOLOLOLOL

Dirty Driver couldnt resist!

He is staying away from my whale this time...... haha

[WRCjosh]

**** all, first weekend its regod, black n decker is comin OUT

[1JZNOSHIT]

haha **** all, Kei Office coilies are being slapped and wound right down!

[Random_Hero]

right down for the north = 2 turns
its obvious that NOR think it look better to have a gap between the rim n guard
i can attest to the fact they are coilovers
B & D h/a coilies
they aint to shabby

[1JZNOSHIT]

Brett & Driver h/a coilies!

I will represent for the NOR in the dumped dept, dont worry....

[DRKWRX]

i wanna get some coilovers!! i wanna see how low i can go. :lol:

[HotAe92]

seriously, how low do u wanna go, u couldnt even take that to the local supermarket without leaving half the car behind, or circumnavigating the road hump.

Practicality > Looks

[Jimmy_S]

Hey.... NoR boys can hit the floor fellas... The wagon sits pretty close to tha road!! ;)

[WRCjosh]

hotae92 you should be banned from this forum forever for that ridiculous statement. I drive my car every where, every day. My mates have cars lower then mine, daily driven everywhere. My last car was on the farkn floor and drove that everyday, everywhere! Just be smart about the carpark choices. LOW > LIFTKIT that is all

[Random_Hero]

respect and cred or just ****in homosexual its up to u
simon made his mind up he joined Carson and the gang

[Joe]

Joshy heated up the springs when the car was on the ground with an oxy torch, and the car just happened to fall that far towards the floor..

[[SPESHAL]]

:werd:

I guess thats why we drive WRX's, and you drive a shopping trolley Corolla - to go to the shops :lol:

And Jimmy I think Josh's has been lowered more than yours, just your kit hangs low. But he cheated. :flipa:

Ridiculous? i think my comment was fair, i have problems with my car and speed humps, and my car is no where as a low as urs, ok my struts are ****ed, but still there is alot more to scrape on a rex than ther is on a rolla, and id b much more afraid to scrape a rex than a 'shopping trolley' rolla.

[WRCjosh]

only thing that touches speed bumps is my exhaust if i go STRAIGHT over them. Havent really scraped it yet.

[Brockas]

']only thing that touches speed bumps is my exhaust if i go STRAIGHT over them. Havent really scraped it yet.
hahaha I was behind you last night on Tonkin Hwy (I think it was) and there were sparks flying off your exhaust everytime you ran over a chestnut.

[Miami]

and reverse lights every time you "dropped/missed 4th".........

[WRCjosh]

hhaahha if i dont hear it it didnt happen ;)

yeah the reverse light shenanigans are a bit wierd. i must be touching the gate to reverse as im trying to smash my way into fourth, not good!

[Miami]

brockas thought you were doing it to claim the chop to everyone behind watching!! :lol:

No doubt Paul... I was just standing up for the NOR boys!!! Mine isnt that low... when i get some correct offset rims... then ill try and lower it a little more... but as you rightly point out... my kit makes it hang reeel low... so makes it a little more difficult to get away with!!! :werd:

[redline07]

Didnt have a run with a dirty 32 on thurs night by any chance did ya josh?? :)

[sikerim]

wtf's a lift kit? lol

[rexsta]

lift kit is wen the car is heaps high! but ppl put lift kits on normally 4x4's to get offroad!!!

[[PIG GTS]]

i think they mean anti-lift kit, its to prevent the car from shuddering like a fwd when doing 5 grand rpm launches

[Joe]

LIFT KIT is what your car is if its not dumped..

[batmat]

dudes...they mean any car that isnt dumped on its nuts = 'LIFTKIT'....

[1JZNOSHIT]

which is most of the cars SOR....

[[SPESHAL]]

Pffft.

SOR?

Show me some dumped NOR cars from posters on this forum.

Oh hang on, there aren't any!

[Joe]

I'd post some pics of mine but I havent taken any yet ;)

[Brockas]

I could post some pics of my car to show you what a lift kit is, but **** it at least I can get into driveways....

[WRCjosh]

my cars slammed and i can still get up my driveway...

next excuse please.

[Brockas]

I preffer not to bottom out on Tonkin Hwy....

[1JZNOSHIT]

Josh, still too high if you can get up your driveway....

[Joe]

I got beached on a driveway last night ;)

[batmat]

[Joe]

[[SPESHAL]]

[Joe]
