Thanks too Huff, my downpipe and heat shield are finally on. We're gonna do the uppipe sometime soon, but i just wanted to get these pics up.

wat do you have? lol anything thatll fit an 02 wrx? btw, the website that i bought my uppipe from said that it will fit a 02 wrx, but the instructions from perrin that came with the uppipe said it wont fit a 2002 wrx. anyone know whats up?

they should fit any turbo subaru motor... 02+ WRX, 04+ STi, as well as other models i believe.

i have two uppipes (doh!), rear sway bar for wrx, rear swaybar for sti, rear endlinks for sti, catless downpipe, catted downpipe, gt30r rotated turbo kit, perrin 2 gauge pod, ebcs, 04+ springs. all brand new in the box, all a bit cheaper than you'll be able to pick up elsewhere. just need to get rid of this stuff at this point.

beginner drivers in japan need to put them in their windshields and rear window when they first got their licenses...thought it was pretty cool.

uppipe installs suck on these cars, i remember my friends 04 wrx sucked really bad, but anyways, looks good

thanks for the comments guys. yea kristian when i get the new clutch we can take turns breaking it in lol. and i would love to enter it in hin, i just would never have a chance.


and yep, they come with the flange for the ewg now.

and to turbo4g, the uppipe install is very annoying. we started to do it, but after working all day with the old bolts and worn out hoses we are gonna save it for sometime soon. but once we get it on im flashing to stage 2, so im very excited!
