    there was a group buy on rs25.com for them. We got the last 25 out of Japan, and unfortunately, they are all already sold

    im having a hard time telling the difference btwn my grille and yours. other than your pink badge they are exactly the same.

    so couldnt you just get a USDM and buy a pink badge?

    slight update on my end as well

    Got the exhaust fixed....finally!

    Added a Stromung style High flow cat and STi midpipe. Got the work done at Six Star Service. Juston does top notch work and his welding skills are second to none. Definitely recommend this guy for any 'standard' service you need done. He's awesome!

    have some other stuff I'm working on and will update that soon!

    I need to extend my b pipe 2-3 inches after the cat. What do you think he would charge me for that?? I went to a place close to me and they wanted $100. I laughed and told them to take my car off the rack so I could leave.

    You know, I envy you so much.
    My dream car has now become the 2.5 RS.
    Used to be the '93 RX-7, but that was completely out of the question as it's a two seater, and is 3 times as expensive.
    Used to be the current STi, but that won't happen until I get a good job.
    Now, it's the 2.5RS, WHICH HAS BECOME THE RAREST THING ON EARTH! If only I was born 10 years earlier, then it would be a LOT more possible. It's only been 10+ years since the 2.5RS, and they're rare as anything in Georgia. AW*()$(#$UJIOJDGL:KSDJFP*()$)$IOJKFLSDHJDFO:GUI)$(I%^$^
    GIVE ME YOUR 2.%RS, MATT!

    yet another small updated.

    added the projector headlights from another thread.

    radiator took a shit last week and TopSpeed ordered me a GMS aluminum radiator. GMS says direct bolt up, but that's a crock of shit :hahano:

    Also TEMPORARILY took off the scoobysport muffler in favor of an OEM STi muffler....it's far too quiet now. :(

    I've got a whiteline RSB I need to install...I meant to do it yesterday, but didn't have it with me. :(
