Hello!
purchased a WRB 06 STi for my 30th birthday 12 years ago. was a bit of a midlife crisis toy.. i wanted to modify it and did a little but it was sadly taken away by a kangaroo.
I loved that car so much i purchased another WRB 06 STi.
this one was already mildly modified and i've continued to change things as years go by slowly evolving it.
Its been a daily, now more of a weekender. I use it mainly for cruising as i enjoy the modified car scene (still) and a bit of drag racing. P.b is 11.9 @ 187 with a soft launch as the HD clutch wasn't holding the launch. Car is lighter now (and so am i) and we have a ceramic twinplate in.. hopefully a decent set of tyres and get a good hit in this season.
Here is it in its current form.
Its a bit of a mongrel street car build but i love it.
I try to improve the car while keeping it street friendly+legal.
Always evolving.

thats mainly it, i usually forget some stuff.
shes a bit dinged and scratched, the paint is pretty shot too.
Ive successfully negotiated panel and paint with the wife for next year as its no longer on daily duties and has a shed to hide in.
some rims would be nice too but i cant bring myself to put anything heavier as im all about performance and too tight to fork out 4k for a decent set... we can dream!
looking forward to seeing how this forum grows!
attached some pics and visa for enjoyment :)
