Smile Greetings from Sri Lanka...

hey guys, this is my first ever Subaru, I got it last Dec, and I have been in lover with it ever since I have brought this car. Its a Sti Spec C Arai tuned. The previous owner had maintained it every well, and kept it the same way it came from Japan. Since owning the car I have done some trips around Sri Lanka and these are the pics;

Good looking car, and the landscapes are great.

Is there much of a Subaru community over there?

Cheers mate,

Scooby community used to be big, but now things have died out a bit... but there are still some random meet ups, but haven't been able to get all the monsters into one place.

Do you have much of a tuning base? Is your car remapped?

Nah mate I haven't, only things I have changed are the Brembo grilled disks, STi panel filters + oil filers, and Blitz Nur Spec RX exhaust.

few ppl do it, but the agents always complain about them, I know a couple of Sti's that hit over 500bhp in the dyno, but not sure how good they are.
