Hey guys! After numerous requests for a member journal of my Sti

I have decided to get off my *** and make one. I purchased my Sti on 12/31/2011. Can you say end of the year sales? Woot! If you want to get hooked up, go see Desi @ Irvine Subaru! I got mine OTD for $35490!

I came from a 2010 Nissan 370z that was heavily modded, but needed something more practical.

04/15/2012: Some goodies arrived! FA Auto 500 coilovers with swift springs

Cusco Rear LCA

Trex CF steering wheel.

05/02/2012: First oil change. 2891 miles.

05/18/2012: Also purchased an AEM intake, but lost all low end torque so I switched to the Cobb SF intake box. Car drives like a beast again.

05/21/2012: 3200 miles. Coilover install/corner balance/alignment at Westend Alignment! I love this place!

05/22/2012: Bayson R CS type front lip:

05/23/2012: Photos of everything up to this point installed.

06/05/2012: 3200 miles. SMY gauge cluster/AEM UEGO wideband AFR Gauge/Defi Boost gauge & WC Lathe werks Blue Bronze shift knob/Si Dial/Reverse LO ring.

06/06/2012: Got sick of the tameness of the Exoticspeed and decided I want to go stage 2.

Exoticspeed cleaned and ready for new owner.

So I ordered an Invidia catless Dp and N1 Race. Off to Cobb Tuning Socal I go!

06/07/2012: Some ******* scratched my ****! Good thing im a whiz with a polisher. Managed to buff it out.

06/12/2012: The N1 race was way too loud for my taste and I kind of missed the quad tip look so I switched to an MXP.

The MXP ended up being almost as quiet as stock, so it didnt stay on the car longer than 3 days. Switched back to an Invidia N1 street lol. I hate being fickle lol.

06/20/2012: I was asked by Cobb Tuning Socal to represent them at Subaru Summer Solstice 3 in front of their booth. I was very flattered!

06/23/2012: Time to polish the whole car!

06/29/2012: Had problems with the FA 500 coilovers, so FA sent out a replacement set of 510 gen4's out at no cost, and they refunded my $450 for install/alignment/corner balance that I had to pay again due to problems with the 500's.

New 510's:
