Hi, I'm just introducing myself to the club/forum.

Ive been a happy Scooby owner for the last 2 1/2 years and still loving the car every time I get in.

Its a 2006 Silver Blobeye WRX.
Ive only done a few mods over the couple of years of ownership these include,
Vibe speaker upgrade/size increase and Sub(Switchable), VTA Dump valve, 5" Cobra exhaust, Rear tints, high-light wrapping (a little here and there), LED footwell illumination (switchable) and some tegiwa red alloy shinny stuff scattered about the car.

The next upgrade that I'm looking at are 18"s for each corner and then lowering by the standard 30-35 mm.
Moving on from this, it might be a spoiler removal--Yank style.

Im looking order these over the next few days.
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/18-SUBARU-...item5658d90fc5 and for an extra £100 Falkens.

But I'm still doing a bit of research into the brand and alternative styles.
Can anybody offer any info of these wheels or alternatives as I want to make sure they are the ones before I buy.

Happy days....

Welcome to the club mate. Get yourself along to a meet soon and you will get plenty of advice on parts to buy and things to do.
We have our monthly pub meet this Saturday lunch time, and the monthly Southend run the following Saturday evening.
Personally I can't comment much on new age, but I know a lot of people prefer 17's due to the better ride quality you get. I for one have returned from 18's back to 17's and my car drives so much better.

Cheers, Paul.

Thanks for the welcome. The meet sounds like it'll be good. Unfortunately work is in the way as usual... May be next time. :-)
