WRX STI Type R - Germany - GRunner - 20-11-2018 So here I will try to post up News about my new Impreza. First of all, a Picture that shows how I got the car: It´s a 98 Subaru Impreza WRX Sti Type R - Forge Blowoff Valve - Kato Alloy Wheels 18 inch / avon tyres - Kenwood 2-DIN Radio (Bluetooth, USB etc.) - a complete closure alarm and immobiliser - Prodrive suspension - Brembo Discs - Enginerebuil done by API It also has the STI Floormats and factory gauges (volt, oiltemp/pressure and ofcourse Boost) [IMG][/IMG] So the first thing i´ve done after it´s arrival in germany was to fit the STI Foglightcovers: The STI Decals on them will be fitted within the next days. So, what next ? Yeah that was the question in my mind, but I need a little help with it. I thought alot about a setup that would fit my needs and was realistic as a student. Air Induction: Many discussions about that, so what is your opinion ? Stickin to the original STI solution ? Or an open filter like apexi or anything else ? What do you say ? And where to get it ? If openfilter, than a solution that works good, nothin just for the look that suffers from hot air. It has to work as "performance" part. Exhaust System: Same as Air Induction. Stickin to the nice STi Exhaust ? Or maybe just change decat pipe, uppipe and stick to the STI Catback that is stock ? Or a complete other exhaust system, and then...which one ? Prodrive ? HKS ? (should then be a little louder than the stock STI but nothing to heavy) Which would work best ? And remember..I don´t want to get 400HP or something. Just a faster spool up, a little bit more sound and ofcourse helping the STI to show his true "stock"-power. I don´t want to change the exterior, as I like the STI-look. So the only planned thing is to get a Version 5/6 rearspoiler instead of my small one. Maybe some new rims as I don´t like them best. But we will see. So come on ppl, let me know your opinions and help me showing the germans that subaru is a nice sportcar.
