My 2005 WRX.
Car started out as an EDM 2005 WRX with the prodrive kit.
Then it got a few mods for fast road / track use.
Firstly the Stoptech big brake kit :
Quite a change from the standard kit on the car :
Then I had some Chiel Bos springs fitted ( http://www.chielbos.com )
Forge atmospheric dump valve:
Invidia big bell mouth downpipe with segregated wastegate opening and race cat and 3'' cat back G200 exhaust system:
I had the titanium rear tip removed (it's massive!) and replaced with a nice custom stainless steel tip more in-keeping.
Summit Strut Brace and ITG drop-in filter:
Replacing the standard 17'' forged 7J wheels and Bridgestone RE050 tyres with something a bit more appropriate:
Bridgestone's replacement for the Pole Position S-03.. the RE050A... (not to be confused with the less extreme RE-050)
The wheels are 18x7.5 inch Ultralite A-Tech. They are an extremely strong, very light forged Aluminium racing wheel.
Other mods include the optional WRX low spoiler (in this market), the 6CD Kenwood in-dash 2DIN audio, Focal component speakers, Kenwood amp and bass speaker, dynamat extreme in the doors, STI fog covers, Lohuis Xenon HID conversion and PIAA LED side markers.

The stock Titanium tip is way too large, and because of the position of the back-box it's a slant exit under the rear valance.
Looks too boy-racerish. I've had a custom 4inch stainless steel salami-cut tip tig welded onto the backbox, so that it exits straight. Looks a lot like the N1 back box.
I'll post some piccies later of it.
