Guess what I just bought!

I just bought a STi 6MT for my WRX...I am getting closer and closer to GDB spec!

It costed a fortune though...$3650.54 plus shipping from Boston, but I am so happy. That tranny was designed by Porsche for Subaru, and is supposed to be next to bulletproof.

I just thought that I would let my Lancer friends know. I am pretty happy.

Late,
Andy

My mods are as follows:

Racing Hart CP-035's 17x7.5 +48
Kuhmo Ecsta 712's (225)
Cusco Front 21MM swaybar
Cusco Rear 23MM swaybar
Kartboy swaybar droplinks
565CC Denso injectors
Greddy/Trust E-manage (A real POS in my opinion)
TEIN RA coil overs
Power Enterprizes PE1820 turbo
Blitz SBC id Electronic Boost Controller
16 psi(Ran 17.5 on the stock ECU(Pre e-manage) with no det, on a dyno)
Defi link 60mm guages (EGT, Turbo, Fuel Pres.)
Cusco Carrosse N1 engine and transmission mounts (The only set in North America)
Ported Exhaust Manifold
Vishnu UD/Lightned crank pulley
Blitz LM intake
Blitz LM FMIC
JDM Projectors with Raybrig 5000k bulbs
jdm guage cluster (STi GDB spec)
jdm GDB Momo Wheel
ApexI pen type turbo timer
BPM GT full 3" turbo back exhaust (Catless)
stage 1 weight reduction
JDM Gril and pink STi emblem

Upcomming mods~
6MT JDM Tranny (I own, but currently on the East Coast)
Autronic full ECU replacement
JUN front bumper
Zero sports rear bumper
STi Carbon fiber rear deck spoiler (1500 bucks )
CF hood with no scoop (Will replace scoop with Aqua duct)
CF deck lid
Bride, or Sparco seats
JDM STi version 6 (Non AVCS) long engine

The only part of this car that is not JDM now is going to be the engine! That is pretty cool, now that I think about it. A street legal GDB.

And I am sure that there is more~ She laid down 258 on pump gas on the STOCK ECU a couple months back on a Dyno JET. Car holds the record for the highest NON N20 wheel horse power output on the stock ECU (NORTH AMERICA)

That's about it~

[RANT]Oh, and to add to my previous, this car will NEVER see Nitrous Oxide, as long as I own it. I believe in the Japanese school of tuning, and they do not run N20 over there.[/RANT]

Thumbs down $hitty 1/4 mile times man...

I have only ran the 1/4 a couple times, and the best that I could do (I am not a damn drag driver) was a 13.1 at 103.5 @ 14 psi... and a burnt clutch. Not too bad, but not too good.

This car will be on her 3rd tranny with the 6 speed...I am going to road course race her only because tranny's are $$$! And my poor car does not deserve the abuse...she is a good car!
