I hope I dont get flamed for this but can anyone tell from my picture's which exhaust is fitted to the car I have just bought?
Clues are that it is "similar" to a stock one but its got a much bigger tail pipe, is the same shape box as an STI but smaller and sits much higher.
I will try and get more pictures to help but just wanted to know if it was obvious, me being a newby and all that.....
Oh yes, the tail pipe is NOT angled like the standard ones but straight, if you know what i mean. I cant figure out how to put pictures here so please look at My Scooby until I sort it out.

Nice to see a few earlier examples minus the spoiler already posted
This pic is the 'My Scooby' pic I took within a few days of taking delivery.
It still looks the same today.
Oh! I did remove the Bridgestones and added Goodyear GSD3 F1's - a puncture helped that 'upgrade' happen
Note to self: wash car and take more pics

Those 19s look huge!!
How have you found the change up in 2 inches?
Decrease in acceleration/performance and handling?
Look better IMO, however, usually upping the wheels in size this much results in a decrease in overall performance and handling??

handles pretty good, not as much understeer as a standard sti but does have lowered springs too obviously a bit bumpier ride now but still very smooth, also recently fitted the perrin anti lift and castor kit and perrin arb links, arb's and strut braces next.

Good Evening Scoobynetters! This is my first post, these are all very nice although I like the blue best, but I am biased as I have an MY07 STI. I will have to get some pictures sorted though!

Some very sweet hawkeyes here... might have to trade mine in for one of these
Few questions... If I do get one, would probably be a WRX because htats all my funds can stretch to atm... but would want to make it look like an STi (without badging it up as one thought)...
Firstly, other than the foglight covers, are there any other differences between an STi front bumper compared to the WRX one?
Secondly, any other differences, ie. scoop size, rear bumper etc...
and finally...been looking at a few hawkeyes, how comes some WRX come with Xenons and some don't... are they not standards to all models??
