    2. Jeff

    3. Silver 2004 WRX Wagon

    4. Mods: Started with aftermarket audio, 17" Konig Holes, and Michelin Pilot Sport A/S tires ... and that's all I need. Well, and a Prodrive Axelback, Kartboy short-throw shifter, Whiteline F/R anti-sway bars, Whiteline steering rack bushings, and Whiteline rear strut tower brace. But my mods are over ... that's all I'm doing to this car -- that's all I need. And a Cobb downpipe, Airborne up-pipe, boost gauge, and intake silencer removal. But that's it ... no more. Mod time is over. That's it -- I'm done. Well, except for maybe a Siegel-tuned Ecutek, D2 coilvers with camber plates, Panther+ brake pads, cleared headlights, and Yokohama A032R-H track tires on spray-painted (yes, spray-painted black) stock rims! But I promise -- that's it -- no more mods! Well ... except for .... It's a disease!

    5. Parts: Most purchases have been through Subaru of Gwinnett, a couple from Airborne back in the day .. also Cobb and TopSpeed

    6. Nasioc is the only other board I read.

    7. Mostly go ... with a smidgen of show.

    8. Do you wave to other wrx's when you see then coming towards you? always! I grew up driving Jeeps -- so the wave is a natural reaction.

    9. Not sure where I heard of this board -- been lurking for a while. So many boards out there -- so little time. Anyway, I decided that it was time to get off my arse and get active with the local WRX community!

    Welcome to WRXAtlanta, yeah our Subies are unfortunately alot like crack, once you start, there is no stopping. They need to make a rehab clinic for upgrade junkies, I think our loved ones would probably sit down with each of us and have a nice friendly intervention, and that would work for a littel, then the modding woudl start pumping thru our blood and it would be time for some hardcore rehab, go cold turkey, that't the only way.

    welcome to the club blake... out of the shops i know, Subaru of Gwinnett is probably the most conveniently located for you... they're located about 5 min from the Boggs road exit (which i think is the first exit off 316)... ive been very happy with their work (both warranty related and performance related)... if u go there, talk to scott (performance) or niel (service and warranty)... and tell them that milo from wrxatlanta says wassup :D

    Welcome from a dawg from the early 90s! I second the SOG rec ... good guys to work with and relatively close to Athens. For some reason, I'd like to say "back in my day when we didn't have 316 ... " but must ... resist ... aging ... larger turbo ... and injectors ... may ... help. Seriously ... welcome aboard!

  44. monk

    monk <b>The Kitchen Ninja!!!!</b>

    hi milo... glad to be here,

    i haven't dyno'd yet, i will after they release the prodrive IV though.

    i stop watched a 0-60 in 4.1 sec a little while ago, if that helps? i had some 4-wheel spin though, i might be able to get something better once i put pirelli's on. not that i'm into drag, but it's sort of a benchmark tool for me. other data, it pushes 18.5lbs 2nd thru 4th and 19.5lbs top-end 5th. scott did a sick job on it.
     
  45. miloman

    0-60 in 4.1sec :eek:
    after wheel spin!!!!!!!!!:eek3: :eek3:

    u sure bout that?

    :rolleyes: that would be really fast in the quarter then...4.1 is stupid fast for a wrx
     
  47. monk

    monk <b>The Kitchen Ninja!!!!</b>

    i think the clock was tripped at the right time, pretty sure. it was a nice cold day though, so maybe that had something to do with it? :confused: i would definitely conceed a couple tenths one way or the other, i know the trip could have been off by that much.

    i launched at max tourque not redline (don't know why so many people do this in the wrx)

    those kumhos (supras) are silent slippers, the clutch hooked up fine, and it felt like a bit of floating (maybe a tenth or so). when i do put the pirelli's on i'll give it another go in some more temperate weather. cause the cold is kinda cheating.

    it's NOT something i like to do often, i know the tranny is just counting the strikes against me ;) i will be putting the STi 6 in eventually, but one headache at a time...

    it's really hard to keep up with every new members. we should have a big G2G with all the members.

    Jimmi, that's FAAASSSSTTTTT!!!
     
  50. monk

    monk <b>The Kitchen Ninja!!!!</b>

    maybe, i dunno, i know the mid to upper gearing is really not suited for drag. depends on what you consider a fast quater too, for some people a mid to upper 12 is fast, for others a low 11 is fast.

    keep in mind this is after the prodrive III, and it feels like a different car. i rarely need to break 3k RPM during my daily drive to and from work. when it was stock i would regularly need to shift at 3000-3500 to keep up with traffic. it pulls very hard now, i've had it a month and i'm still working through the fine details of what happens when i do x-y- or z at a given rpm

    i'll be going to one of scott's track days in the spring, so i'd be happy to let some of you take it for a spin to see what i'm talking about (no launching please .:D )

    scott's done more than a few of these so maybe he can tell me if the dude timing me was on crack :bigthumb:
