if that was your white 'preza w/ the i-club sticker, i did indeed get behind you on Donner Pass rd. Your ride looks SWEET with the mud flaps. very nice ride!

oregon plates? right?

UPDATE: i put the stockers back on and they fit GREAT with the 25mm spacers. I am test fitting with much camber tnight the 18's again....

Yep, that was me! I have CA plates tho, haha. I have been lovin those mudflaps... I'm in the dirt alot and they really help keep the car clean/ protect the paint from rocks. Plus you can't go wrong when they're $50/set
I really like your car, love that wide tonka truck (as someone said earlier) look, so badass! Hopefully mine will look like the 08 hatch version of that someday soon!

Red Prodrives are 25% heavier and will lower maybe 1/2" in the front, rear should be about the same. I have a set for sale if you are interested. I switched them out for '05 STi springs.

It's Danielle, close enough

I'm in school in the "yay" area so I can't do weekly meets, but when I'm up there I would def go to whatever is planned. Swisherking and I tried to do a little hwy 40 cruise on Sunday, but he's got slicks on his car and weather was questionable so we decided to reschedule.
I have a couple other buddies up there with imprezas... I will try to get them to come out as well

i agree leftcoast, and hopefully tnight i can get it done....

Danielle (<--cut and paste)

i actually ciould meet weekend pretty easily. a sunday run would be a blast. i know of some cool roads on the way to sierraville, but sort of a different path so to speak. also, the road to downiville is sick (i am a streetbiker to, so i have all the local roads fairly memorized)

get those dorks out, and lets RIDE!

Like how it looks, I wouldn't mind getting wide tires on mine that almost stick out like yours since i have rally armor mudflaps to. I think it looks awesome paired together.

thanks Echelon! seriously, that is why i hang in this forum. good people....

i keep liking it more everyday. i cant wait to get it aligned after the front camber bolts go in.

what do y'all think, roll or grind my rears? i only need about 1/8" to completely clear....
