hmmhmhmhmmhmm. SRP onws all. nice looking rs man. whatcha got done?

Safir · 10-08-2005, 10:20 AM

pretty much "yes"

as it sits there:
Tein Type RE dampers/springs/tophats
custom adjustable rear lateral links/trailing arms
STi limited 5-speed transmission, STi "stiff" front/center/rear LSD, 4.444 FD
original COBB short shifter
FXT stock 18mm hollow rear sway bar
Hairpin racing rear endlinks
Perrin/wilwood 4pot front/2pot rear brakes, wrx front calipers, H6 rear.
Custom turbo setup - TD05H 14B, WRX TMIC, 4.5PSI
brullen catback.

i think that's about it there

over the winter the motor came out and got oliver rods and wiseco 8.8:1 pistons, and a haltech E6X - this winter it will hopefully get a new turbo and up/downpipe, and probably a better intercooler setup.

awesome setup man. I also have the brullen catback, i love it. are you on rs25.com?

Silverfc88 · 10-08-2005, 04:42 PM

How do you like the the E6X? I've heard some people (only a few) have tunning problems with it and have gone back to the E6K.

Nice lookin car. From the mods looks to be a well built car.

Nice Car!

Safir · 10-08-2005, 05:43 PM

thanks guys - yes i'm on RS25, but not often anymore. The E6X - i've never been able to get it to run right, then i started blowing turbos, so i've been pretty unhappy with it so far - I'm either going to ditch it for "something" else - not positive what just yet - or I've got a shop in Canada that is real good with them that i may have look into it - up until this point I have personally done EVERYTHING on the car, with the notable exception of the motor assembly, which i farmed out to elkin's performance engines, because i know they do A+ work, and they're the only people I trust with something that important.

My favorite thing about the brullen is that people mistake it for stock - it's nice and quiet and doesn't look modified

The car was fas around a road course, even before the turbo ent in, and i'm excited to see what I get out of it with the new goodies - hopefully next spring in time for the NASIOC dragon trip

oh, few things I fogot before:

WRX sedan front A arms - widen front track 1" overall (took some creativity, let me tell ya ;) )
STi front axles - needed with the widened front track
custom driveshaftshop rear axles - with teh rear lateral links I also widened the rear track, actually considerably wider than a stock WRX sedan.

also of interest is the 3.5 degrees of negative camber all the way around ;) hoosiers LOVE camber

Nice car!

It was nice meeting you guys at the meet last night. If you think you want to try to give that mitsu turbo another chance I know a really good turbo rebuilder in the area. He is also really good at figuring out what might be going on with your setup. So at the very least maybe you should stop by his shop just to get ideas before you put a really nice turbo on there and waste it.
