This is my introduction thread

Thanks for all the kind welcomes guys.
Just for kicks n giggles, this is the my dsm I just sold a few weeks ago. I haven't had it in fargo too often, but you may have seen it.
The plan is, in a few years to have the subie just as "clean" looking in the next couple of years. Like I said though, I'm not planning on even trying to make this motor fast. I see very little hope in making na motors quick.

I remember that car. Bad ass....(for a DSM)lol thanks. With a nice set of coilovers and a sweet set of wheels, maybe a v5/v6 front bumper, the subie might be as "badass." Right now the subie just looks so ug idk, lacking aggressiveness

I think you are crazy Brian, that thing is sharp. I do so love a nice green car, the wheels make cringe, but just a little.
Welcome... again?

Welcome... again?Not a fan of the goldies? They're actually just the stock wheels. I'm thinkin about all black wheels for summer but idk.

Welcome again......i guess
Understeer is when you hit the wall with the front of the car
Oversteer is when you hit the wall with the rear of the car.
Horsepower is how fast you hit the wall
Torque is how far you take the wall with you -

A swap....Yup, I mentioned that earlier in the thread. I just don't wanna do the swap till I'm outa school and have a more steady income. If I swap it, I'm gunna have to go sti over wrx just because if I'm gunna drop that much money I might as well spend the little extra and get the more powerful motor.

i like the goldies on it.

I even read that part, good point tho on not messing with the motor too much, it'll just end up being a waste and you won't get your investment back.
STi block is also better because it is semi-closed I believe(if you are talking about the EJ257), the power thing is a less of a concern as most of it is made with boost/turbo anyway...

I like that car, and the dsm as well. Welcome aboard, again

Yup, I mean you can make na motors quick, but what's the point when you can spend a little money and go turbo and make way more power and have much more potential. I really like the idea of swapping a stock motor into the car and gaining power. That way I keep some of the reliability as well
Anyways, I'm purposely not looking into what it takes to do a swap just yet because I know I'll probably just start buying little parts here and there if I do. I'm just gunna enjoy the slow car for a while and beef up the suspension a little. Thanks again for the kind welcome (again) guys! I'm sure I'll be meeting some of ya this summer!

I think an n/a 2.5 with just ridiculous suspension would be a hell of a lotof fun
