You don't believe me LOL!

Go on Nasioc or any other subaru forum. There is another one done now in Australia which I helped out, and my friend in Canada but his bay is in primer. When I said I was going to do it in 07, everyone said it couldn't be done.

You can look at these two threads for when I started toying with the idea, and when my bay first got done which was 2 years ago.

If you can, show me another shaved subaru bay other then the two I just mentioned, which I basically designed as well. lol

to be honest, I really don't care enough.

a shaven/tucked engine bay is as general as saying your car is modified...to what extent? i'm sure someone out there moved their battery to a different location and re-wired some things.

(your car still looked better in white with gold advans ).

LOL! A moved battery and a few wires moved isn't a shaved/tucked bay. You do care enough, or else you wouldn't have said anything. lol

I did like the car pearl white with the advans also, but in no way did it compare to what it is now. I'll be honest, I had the most fun driving it when it was all black. lol

^a local to us has a really nice engine bay: https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/sa...es-800whp.html

I'm not sure what he has done exactly, and it looked really clean the last time I saw it in person (can't remember if he had moved the fuse box last I saw).

Looks good but its not really shaved or wire tucked like some of the VW and honda guys have been doing lately.

^I never thought pics of his engine bay did his car justice, so I'm not sure if the pix I linked to are the most updated. It was by far the cleanest Evo engine bay I've seen in person. I know he hangs/works with the SpeedFactory guys a lot.

Like what James? My bay is completely hooked up minus the catch can/coolant lines which are all -an and under the intake manifold...

They're done now and it looks exactly the same.
