Default My 2009 Hatch updated and back home (pic heavy)

Thanks to Scoobyclinic doing an amazing job, again.






Only subaru badge on the car is on the bootlid now.

















































Haters gonna hate but I dont give a flying frogs ****.

Just for those who are interested, XXR527's 9.75" wide - purchased from SRB Power via Ebay for £550 (great deal I think), customised ABW arches, customised splitter and modified front bumper (after I smashed it again) all the work by SCR.

Still same power, no mechanical upgrades, 328hp/370lbs tq (dyno mapped/printout). Cheers and hope you like the hatch - its a great car to drive, ugly as **** but hey - not uglier than anything else on the market.

I like it apart from the scoop. What spoiler and exhaust do you have?

varis-style from imdexdesigns (its carbon grp but got the plastidip on it now, same for bonnet), exhaust is straight through (scoobyclinic one pipe) from manifold to backbox, which is custom jap-angled from scoobybits.

I know about the scoop, it is a very marite thing and doesn't need to be on there anymore, but theres not much I can do about that without spending several hundred on a new bonnet. I like it, its OTT, but so is everything else on there I guess.

Not a fan of the bonnet, front bumper or arches... If it was an STi to begin with it would've looked better !

I do like the Hatch / Mazda by so not hating the shape

Thankfully most of the badges have been taken off so the majority of people won't associate that with Subarus.

I like the plastiDip spray job, saw the car at SC last saturday

rear spolier is good.
aches are good.
front bumper... I'm out
Bonnet.. well I like the vents, STi7 scoop I don't like.

If you've got a front mount, could you not loose the scoop and just have vents?




what other mods are on the car to get to 328bhp?
