Hi all,

New to the site, got linked here after looking for CF cloth/vinyl for my WIP audio system...

Always been a BMW fan, but alas, the beer budget fails me...

So, I rock a Subie...

Here she is... enjoy (or try at least)

How she was when I picked her up...

So the wheels were a retarded size for the car, I sold them before I got home (went to NJ to get the car, drove back to MI)

With some stock Subie Leggy GT wheels a friend traded me so my drive home would be safe..

Got me some used TE37's (remember the beer budget) that needed some srious help, all 4 were curbed to some extent... Uber rare blue color from what I understand, not Mag Blue (still trying to be sure, anyone got connects at Rays????)

WIP

Almost finished...

On the car.. (before replacing the decals)

Wingless

With a friends 190.... (more on that one in the future maybe WOW)

Interior, how I got her..

Interior currently, i'm working on a competition level audio system, this is a shot of the sound deadening work i've done (Second Skin products sponsored) It's changed since this shot, all covered in closed cell foam... still working on it...

Shot of my "system diagaram" of sorts, which has changed as well... remove the large chrome amp and replace with 2 smaller black Linear Power's

Under hood...

The first 3 days of owning the car I pulled a best Subaru trophy from a show in Newark NJ (Extreme Rides)

Some of you may know of this car, was parked right behind me...

680 something on the mustang, hazing the rear tires... (and boy did it have some meat)

I got offered the chance to be in the largest outdoor auto show in the country, the NorthWood Auto show in Midland Michigan... I held some REALLY nice company...

(67' fastback with a Ford GT drivetrain swap...!! The Flashback www.flashbackcdc.com)

That was fun....

So yeah, i'm Aaron... Nice to be here, don't worry though, I know this is a BMW forum, so if you see me around, it likely won't be talking stuff i'm not famillar with, I assure you... lol...

Wanted to give my intro and tell everyone that I'm in love with abour 40 cars here already... lol...

Cheers,
Aaron

i love rs's
but i think i like the gold rims on there better
well welcome

aznbenz07 · 03-18-2009, 02:10 PM

Nice looking subie man, that mini in the first pic is sweet as well.

asdflkijd · 03-18-2009, 02:13 PM

I think the volks would be better in gold.. But they still look nice, welcome and hope you enjoy your stay! I use to love those RS's wanted one so bad... Are you on IWSTI? My friend has the HSPN STi.

Bimmer Nerd · 03-18-2009, 02:21 PM

subies are cool and your ride is tight also, i don't have a bimmer (or a car in fact ) so i still like staying here, you will enjoy your stay here but mostly your going to need a new pair of boxers

lyndon_h · 03-18-2009, 04:28 PM

Very nice. I think i like the gold wheels better also. I'm actually a whore for white wrx's with gold wheels

E90Alex · 03-18-2009, 04:42 PM

thats a nice lil subie

spacedogg · 03-18-2009, 04:56 PM

Subaru WRX in blue w/ bronze or gold wheels are a classic combo!

Love that Subaru bodystyle...probably best looking Subaru WRX bodystyle of the all.

Seminole · 03-18-2009, 06:20 PM

Welcome to the site and sick Subaru. I'm sure it will look awesome when you have it done.

g0at23 · 03-18-2009, 07:53 PM

Awesome rice rocket. How many HP under that thing?

ACZakka325i · 03-18-2009, 09:46 PM

I think that is actually pretty tight man, its pretty extreme. Stripped interior with the seat, wheel, shifter, and cage! Cant doubt it doesn't handle well, just be careful with the boost!

Aaron'z 2.5RS/WRX · 03-19-2009, 07:15 AM

Thanks everyone.. !!

I like the gold wheels better to, but THOSE were Rotas and in a silly size for the car... I couldn't deal with them on Michigan roads, they would have broken for sure...

The Volks are some rather rare color, so i'm not willing to fully paint them... the red, it's just rattle can, so it could be wiped off with brake cleaner...

Again thanks for the welcome..!!

MJC///M3 · 03-19-2009, 09:26 AM

sweet car man

methodtim · 03-19-2009, 10:05 AM

Nice ride. Welcome!

Citizen Z · 03-19-2009, 11:00 AM

Thanks for de-crapifying a very nice car. You took rice and turned it into ice ice baby, to cold, to cold. Ok, I'll stop now. I've always wanted that model Subie.

Aaron'z 2.5RS/WRX · 03-19-2009, 02:41 PM

Again, thanks guys... I was worried when I came here with my rice burner that you beer burning guys would be TOOLs to me...

Not so, which is great.. lol.. Thanks..!

Well, if you showed up with a 2001 Civic with a big wing, coffee can fart cup, underbody lighting and v-techpowaaaaa! there might have been a different reaction.
