thats a bad ass....would own my car lol. I wish my mom wouldve gotten the forester instead of the Santa Fe

UnderPoweredRS · 01-07-2006, 08:56 PM

I saw you at the subaru fun fest. I have the black 98 rs that was turbo'ed at the time. It's swapped now.

TehWagon · 01-07-2006, 08:57 PM

damn dood!

welcome, and WOW. nice car!

are those mudflaps stock on forester xt's? they are nice!

ScoobyNubieToo! · 01-07-2006, 09:46 PM

Absolutely beautiful. The only thing I see that's keeping you from High 12's is the exhaust....if you move to a Turbo XS TBE, and getta protune, you'll really be tearing up the tarmac! But thumbs up so far!

Little G · 01-07-2006, 10:04 PM

Well, that horrible 60' was the result of spinning on bald stock tires. I'm not scared to launch this car.

I'm pretty sure I'm in the 12's now...last trip to atco I pulled off consistent 1.7 short times on my new tires... and ran a 13.4 hitting the brakes around the 1000' point in order to avoid hitting 3 deer that jumped out in front of me. 2nd pass I missed 3rd gear bad and still ran a 13.3...wish I had gotten a clean pass...I'm gonna try to get back asap...

Yes I know exhaust will help me alot and allow me to run AP stage 2, but I just need to get a clean baseline pass on stage 1 first...

To answer the other questions:

1.) I dont think that was me at the Subaru FunFest...at least I don't think so...where/when was that?

2.) Yes, the FXT came with those mudflaps stock.

3.) Thanks for the props, I like it, especially considering the tight budget it was built on, I'm not even over $2k in mods yet.

TehWagon · 01-08-2006, 12:13 PM

holy crap a DEER ran across the TRACK?! jeebus...

do you guys get the re-92s of death as well?
yes it's safe to say that you're into the 12s with a 1.7 60'... i'd love to see it in person- we usually go as a group... when the track reopens we'll have to go down asap!!

i am amazed that you did all that in under $2k?! who the heck do you know?! haha

Yea, that's what I get for being the first person there, I'm the first person to race (solo run luckily!). After I get back to the staging lanes I bitch at the track official asking why the hell there are no fences up...he says "usually the noise scares the deer away..."

Just another excuse to wifey why I blew $$ on a new exhaust...haha

No, unfortunately we get the Yokohama Geolandar G900 215/60/16

Yea, being that 95% of my mods are OEM parts I just shopped the boards and convinced some STi guys that their stock stuff wasnt worth anything...haha. The only thing I bought new was the rear sway bar (dirt cheap $139) and the 18" wheels/tires ($800 mounted/ balanced/ shipped... clearance at tires.com)

TehWagon · 01-08-2006, 12:34 PM

nice, man... that's excellent!

lol @ exhaust justification to 'wifey' haha

sisforsurfing · 01-08-2006, 12:34 PM

So badass. I love it. Power mods are great (near-12's on an OEM exhaust is awesome), and I didn't know Forrester guys are taking STi suspension bits.

I'm also amazed, that's some good parts shopping.

joe tom · 01-08-2006, 12:41 PM

i absolutely love your forrestor! i want to see it in person, you best be coming to some meets!! welcome to the forum.

Silverfc88 · 01-08-2006, 01:29 PM

Yeah I love the fact that you can swap suspension pieces like that. The lowered look looks real good on that. Looking forward to seeing it at the track.

naSTI · 01-08-2006, 02:21 PM

Sick!!!

Now you just need to beef up the brakes to keep up with your speed!

And those 18s are sick!

TalonTsi97 · 01-08-2006, 02:26 PM

NICE car, i have always liked those foresters. They have a mean look when done rite and yours backs up the look with the speed. Keep modding!
