My Sonic Yellow 2003 WRX Wagon
So I bought this car when I went home on leave. So far I love it. I am looking forward to doing some more work to it after I return from deployment.
Mods are as follows:
-Engine:
-GReddy 18g
-Alcohol Injection
-FMIC
-Invidia up/down pipes
-GReddy TiC cat-back
-Cobb intake
-Cobb Accessport V1 w/XXtuning tune
-A'pexi turbo timer
Suspension:
-Tein S-Techs
-Whiteline front/rear strut bars
-Whiteline front sway bar
Exterior:
-STi style headlights
Plans:
-Replace Side markers because one is broken
-Replace interior a-pillar plastic because something was once screwed in there
-Eventually cryo treated STi type RA gears if mine ever have the usual problems
-Coilovers "so that I can haz moar low"
-Bumper protector over my exhaust
-Rear sway bar
-Enkei RPF-1's or 5Zigen FN01RC's
Primary goal for the car is to make the car reliable, fun, and good looking. It has plenty of power as it is, so I will probably leave that as it is. Handling and cosmetics are the primary concern at the moment.
Anyway, here are a couple pics!

Re: My Sonic Yellow 2003 WRX Wagon
I feel some sarcasm in that first statement. And yes, the whole car needs a detail. It's from New England, the winter will do that.
Exterior got a quick wash, now I am waiting for warm weather to do a full detail (read as pay someone to detail it).
Tax returns!
Thanks! I wanted Aspen white like my old one, but theyre getting harder and harder to find. And since the yellow isnt the typical blue, black or silver of most WRX's, I went with it. The wagon aspect just adds to the different... ness....
