Blobeye WRX owners - show off your pride & joy!!
 
I'll be soon joining the Blobeye (wagon ;) ) WRX owners club, so whilst I'm waiting and hunting through the ads, give me some inspiration!!

Standard WRX's fine, modded ones even better!!

I've got the obligatory exhuast/filter/remap planned for mine, but also fancy a few subtle body mods, without making it an STi a like.

From what I've seen I fancy STi winglets and splitter, black headlight mod and anthracite std wheels. I'm thinking that foglight covers look better, but I'd have to remove the STi logo's.

But I'm new to the world of Subaru, so show me what can be done :)

Picture of my blobeye wagon attached. Had it a couple of years, it had a decat & remap etc before i bought it and its running 282bhp. I've fitted eibach springs and a front strut brace since i've had it.

it will be up for sale soon if your interested!!;)

Here's mine. Vf34, 550s, full decat etc ecuteked at 321/280 waiting for a tweak as I've added fmic. Wanting to get coilovers, brakes and maybe rota grids next!

Very nice chaps - liking those :)

Grinch6301 - are those WRC-1's (and on yours Jamie?)? Looks great. YHPM!

Jamie - Again, looks great. I can't make my mind up, but I think the WRX does look better with the (plain) fog covers. Also, if they are WRC-1's then me personally I'd keep them over Rota's, although Grid's do look pretty nice. Excuse my newbness but does the 321/280 mean you have a switchable map? 280hp would be fine for me, but I was wondering about planning for a safe 300hp, so I guess that would mean fitting a VF34 and STi injectors?

T25 DOC - again, awesome looking wagon mate. Really like that! Are the fog cover intakes modded, or can you buy them like that?

jay vr6 18 July 2012 04:12 PM

this is mine, you just can't see the ksports up front or the black headlight mod but both are very worthwhile imho. Love my underskirts though :)

T25 DOC 18 July 2012 04:18 PM

The fog cover is a mod for air feed....car's running 342/320 on last rolling road, but this was when rings needed changing, heads were then skimmed, and headers wrapped so hoping may have pulled a couple more horses out of her....needs tweaking on the map... but also want rear calipers and some parts under bonnet powder coating .....it's all money money money...lol

321/280 is the horse power and then torque levels... :)

JamieJerkovic 18 July 2012 04:21 PM

My wheels are 17 inch prodrive oz. there okay I just fancy a change it's either e 9.5 grids or the pff7s. Oh no I do not have the luxury of 2 maps. 321 is the bhp and 280 is the ftlbs torque! Yes 300 is a nice figure and much more fun to drive depends on how much you want to spend! Yes a vf34 or any of the vf series to make a nice 300+. Is your car standerd ATM?

JamieJerkovic 18 July 2012 04:23 PM

If you were going to start modding start with the brakes! Something I wish I done before I had it all mapped etc.

Sounds like a good idea, lol!! What's the recommended upgrade path, without spending too much? STi Brembo's?

Jay vr6 - looks awesome mate, as you say, the underskirts look good - first time I've seen those.

Matt23 - nice, love those spoilers (UK300?), wouldn't look so good on a wagon though, lol!

JamieJerkovic 18 July 2012 05:45 PM

Urm well you can either get uprated discs and pads. I had a classic turbo 2000 and put tarox discs and pads on and there were amazing huge improvement. But if you want to spend a little more you can go brembos, aps, alcons are the way forward. You can get brembos 2nd hand for arou d 400-450

Have a look in my garage!!

DonNedly 18 July 2012 08:30 PM

I haven't done a lot on the outside except detango, cold air feed, fog covers, mudflaps and tints:

I'm getting the serious itch now!! Hope the guy coming to look at my 182 on Tuesday is serious!!

UK300_kev - looks great that, I've seen those pics elsewhere before. Is the scoop an STi one? Also, what suspension are you running?

uk300_kev 20 July 2012 03:06 PM

Thanks buddy, the wagons are great, prefer mine to my old uk300! You may have seen the pic's in a thread on here or on ctro? It's an sti 8 scoop and is running a stage 2 performance handling pack from scooby world as well as engine mods/map too.
