It was either blue, white or orange blast for me. Im happy i found a nice white one.
i like them seats, are they stock?
Sure are , sir.
What made you go from a WRX to an SRT?
Well before i got the WRX, i wanted an SRT badly, but i couldnt afford one since i only had 12,000 to buy a car with.
Plus, i needed AWD for school in PA, now im back home in Jersey where it never snows. I miss spinning tires :-p
^^ i want to know as well , SRT is my next option if i don't go wrx
I miss FWD, AWD is awesome, but im a kid at heart.

HaHa, it snowed like twice here when i had the Roo, so i guess it didnt snow as much as i would have liked it to . :cool:

Indeed, i was a bit surprised.

Unfortunately, i like them. And ill probably do a carbon fiber OEM hood in the future, so i dont want to ruin them.

I want an intake , i know they dont give power or anything, but i miss the spool the WRX had.
And were you on stock PCM? And the spinning the tires thing was a joke on AWD. It was more of a snow joke reference too.
I dont do burnouts , thats old hat to me.

Bone stock except for mods listed + plugs and coilovers
Stock tires with 15k miles on em = 2.1 60ft
With slicks and a 1.8 60ft it would've been around 12.2-12.4

Yeah, but thats like saying a wrx is like a regular n/a impreza on roids.
Nice car, i never really see them in white.. and is there a difference between a regular srt4 and an ACR model, besides the wheels?

Sure is. I believe it has a bigger front sway bar, the wheels are a half inch wider, they have the seats with the pass through harness holes, the 5 way adjustable tokico struts from the factory.
did you get a new phone - i know that crusty ole sidekick didnt take those!
Sure did, i ditched the SK3 after three of them failing on me, went to a black berry pearl which was to businessy for me, now i have the Tmobile Shadow , and love it.
PS: I need your numeros again.

ACR srt > wrx by far and thats not only because i have an srt.
dont know why everyone is ripping the change iv driven many wrx's and hardly any intrigue me anymore they are just blah but that can just be me
looks good i actually agree with the intake thing i like the short ram sputter sound i get with mine well worth it imo insted of going BOV because i dont have any big plans at all for the car
also if your ever in the madison area or sj area let me know

Im not going to diss the WRX's at all. I loved mine. But i wanted an SRT first, and now i had the opportunity to sell my high mileage WRX for a low mileage SRT, since i need a car to keep for awhile now.
I have plans for it, but i take things as they come. I just ordered the injen short ram, mopar rice plate, and AGP trans/motor mounts.

Who has a vortec on their 3 series? Now the AA/Rotrex with cams turns the car into a new beast.
The reason why it seems like a waste of money TO ME(opinion here) is he had a perfectly decent and capable car that could get him around in all types of weather and be built to perform well in many types of racing applications if wanted.

Well, i wasn't planning on rallying or auto crossing that car, and it was high mileage. But like i stated before, i wanted an SRT before i got the Roo, so now i got a 10,000 offer, and i had money saved, so i bought what i wanted.
Im not worried about driving the SRT in the snow, sure the WRX is the most fun in the snow, but for the 3-5 times it snows, isnt enough to justify me keeping it.
Form>Functionality.

Here's a clip:

I've had 4 different exhausts and this one sounds and performs the best by far

On stock turbo you won't notice a difference at all with the 3" CB vs. 2.5" CB

Well if you get the Maxxfab/Mopar combo, only the CB will be 2.5"
Stock turbo won't notice too much of a diff with a 2.5" vs. 3" DP. There is a little gain though, nothing major

I cant decide which i really want, the Greddy RS or the Turbonetics Raptor. I had both of them on my civic, i liked the Greddy but you couldnt really hear it, and the turbonetics wasn't loud either. I sold the turbonetics to my buddy with a 05 SRt, and it sounded awesome.
So im debating,or just save up and get the tial :).
