So, so far the most evil thing to do to an Impreza is fake roof vent and lexus lights?

Really? Who the f**k is voting this ****?

I'd say stupidly low / crazy camber stance bullsh1t is far worse, way to make a car f**king unusable...

Well, no-one's going to knowingly degrade the performance of their Impreza, that's a certainty.

So, does anything cosmetic do that? - er..... no.

So, is most of the items on the list er.... cosmetic? - er.... yes.

Says it all with some/most of the old boys on this forum, sorry OP.
Add stickers, decals, 'fake' vents - almost anything that doesn't detract from the staggering performance of one of the greatest cars ever manufactured - and one becomes someone unworthy of owning one, a 'chav' even.

I think that means goodnight from me.

This thread isn't to highlight Subaru mods that bother me. It aimed at sheep who think a blast up to the speed limit once in a blue moon is organising and or taking part in illegal street racing, and that going to the mechanics whilst average 51MPG to diagnose a scraping sound is racing around with no pads.

I don't really get the Fake Roof vent hating, it's just a subtle styling mod, different coloured scoops, spoilers and foglight covers look worse and they didn't even make the list of shame!!!

its because he once claimed the wrx was the pinnacle of performance imprezas as he street raced loads of 450 plus cars and won in his wrx.

most people pointed out he was full of **** and his claim is all people are sti owning sheep for questioning his wrx super car claims.

People on here all sticking together in trying to prove 3M on an Impreza or a tisssh noise is the biggest evil since the holocaust. Strange they can even hear a BOV as they believe a large spooling turbo makes zero noise.

They allow no room for difference. In their tiny heads a WRX of any level of tune can't beat any STI, even one sat in the scrappers. A BOV on a 100,000k Imp means it is a crap Imp, they won't even accept the word Imp as a reference for the Impreza.

Dropped at birth methinks.

Anyway death to roof scoop owners muhahahaha!!! ...and those with 1 pad wearing low!!!

So when alot of people share a similar opinion (i.e. theyre joining a majority), but it doesnt match your opinion, theyre only doing it to follow the suit of the majority and therefore are sheep?

Thats very narrow minded!

By the way im running an atmospheric dump valve! Does that make me a bell end? Can i be arrissed to explain to you why? If i did explain would you get it?

no.

idiots that run around on knowingly defective brakes putting innocent people at risk really are an evil burden.

I'll remove the small pure evil Prodrive sticker at the front of the car, that'll fix everything!



Not sure if I should remove the VTA, will my car look sexy like an STI if I put a re-circ on?


Thought you were going btw? Moving to a quieter car that doesn't sit hand in hand with stickers/decals or hydraulic-esque sounds. Maybe you should read books instead of forums, no annoying beep beep beep noises away from PC's.

"Imp Imp Imp!!!!" Imp is the new Scoob. I can hear the steam coming out of the irascible Tubster's ears from over 50 yards away!!!

Muhahahaha

Now let me find a parachute for my car to appease the flock. ...and so I can drive it, even though the sheep think I'm currently posting from a mobile whilst doing 125 around town, even though I continually state I never break the speed limit. Not that will make any difference to the sheep as what the peers state is gospel.

Fixed my friend as I've already stated 55 times ad I only drove it to the local garage whilst doing 51mpg, You know this you never miss a post of mine, you love it. Can't believe you are adding lying to your MO.

Just done 38.9 around town, wanna post that every other post or do you only post negative things about Imp owners?

Right where is that hairdryer?

i think you post such crap you forget, the fact you are driving on the road with defective brakes ANYWHERE confirms your intelligence.

where are the 55 posts or are you lying

I think the single most evil mod would have to be a manual boost controller. The amount of destroyed engines these little gadgets have contributed to is unreal. Or is it the people that fits them? haha

I'd say up to 50% of Imp owners are driving with a sticky caliper piston! Sometimes it's quiet sometimes you get a slight steam train noise if your disk isn't true. I wouldn't say it was driving with defective brakes lol.

But if you want to think that I won't change your mind Master will have to. ..or joshnosh lmfao.

I suppose mentioning you and your futile kind is sadder than running a 24/7 franchise on "dissing" stickers and "chav-valves."

Stop reusing my comebacks.

A good comeback would be to say something like "if you don't stop driving to the garage with a blowing exhaust you are gonna kill someone or the environment with the death trap."

Lexus lights 15 Fake roof vents 15 - clash of the Titans!!!!
