Thanks guys. I had to get rid of the exhaust it came with since it sounded like **** to me and it had surface rust on the tip, which I didn't feel like painting over. Also needed gold wheels so those ugly grey ones had to go.
About to pick up this exhaust from a friend off his wrx wagon he's parted out. It's a 5zigen 3" exhaust but not sure which one it is exactly. I think it's a fireball since it looks like the picture below, but has 2.5" flanges that taper from the 3" pipe and isn't a slip joint type like the miracle fireball. I just know it's going to be louder w/my 3" DP than 3" DP w/my stock midpipe w/prodrive axleback

Took a visit to the Chiba prefecture today and went to L'aunsport and if you guys are real subaru fans then you know who they are and what they do! If not...google that ish! They had a version 7 sti grill so I went for a drive and bought it.
Check out my album to see some L'aunsport pics.
Also some badass evo 1-3 wrc look-a-like in it

FINALLY got some of my defi gauges & zero/sports gauge pod installed after 6mo of it sitting around collecting dust! Also installed my torque solutions pitch rod!
Now just have to wait for my damn 5zigen exhaust to arrive...still trying to keep an eye out for a L'aunsport WRC Custom axle back since they pop up from time to time at Upgarage...good thing taxes are comming up

Some folks already know, but I have some GDB Ver9 Spec C seats comming in
Unfortunately they won't be going in the car since I think it would look horrendous mix-matched with the blue door cards and rear seats. So they will sit and collect dust until I do find the door cards at least.

here's a tip for the day...
when installing kartboy subframe locking bolts be very careful otherwise you'll break the welded nut on the subframe that secures the bolt...that was a waste of $30 :-(

car looks good.
Once I get back and get my wagon back in shape we have got to meet up.
Will try and get some others from Yokosuka organized, hard to do with all the people being on different ships.
Let me know when after april will work for you.

Got a STi Limited spoiler today for a cool Y4000 (about $55) and installed it
You can also see my L'aunsport P555 WRC 2001 exhaust

Wow it's been a while since a real update lol. I've added the following stuff in the last few months:
- Zero/Sports TMIC Splitter
- Beatrush/Laile solid transmission mount
- STI limited v2 front lip
- Maddad 3" bellmouth downpipe, straight pipe midsection
Trying to figure out what else I want to do. I'd love to get some wheels to go on new tires I'm going to be getting soon since mine need replacement. Can't find anything I want around here since 5x100 is super expensive still for nice stuff bleh.

The parts already got installed lol....And actually I bought the wrong zero/sports tmic splitter. I bought the one for wrx rather than sti since the wrx version doesn't have the holes needed to attatch the intercooler sprayer nozzles.

Well since I bought the wrong splitter for my car (originally bought a wrx version and not sti) I bought a new one! Installed and everything. Kinda cool because it has 3 spots for sprayers so since the one I bought came with sprayers I just used an additional from mine. I'll be posting the wrx splitter for sale soon.
