Default Evening

Thought id say hello in here. I live in Wolverhampton and after wanting an impreza since i was 10, 13 years later ive got myself a blob eye STI!
Looking to get involved with some meets and enthusiasts locally and this seems a great club!
Anyway, got this last wednesday and absolutely love it! I think the local shell will love me too lol
Got a few plans, (need exhaust reccomendations ) already taken the wrx and subaru badges off the boot and got a pink grill badge, but no overly impressed tbh.
Popping to pole position saturday to book in for a service!

welcome to the club mate, you're right about shell going to love you I might see you down pole position myself on Saturday morning as I'm going to be popping down early morning.

As for exhaust recommendations it depends what you want, I have a nur spec r which I'm sure someone will tell you is way too loud and will make your ears bleed.......

And they're right but I wouldn't change mine for the world

If you are down pole position and I'm there on Saturday then come say hi my car is a blue 03 STI with pink west mids imprezas stickers on and dark wheels

Tom

I will probably be there about then too mate so I'll keep my eye out for you and say hi, the H&S exhaust is a good system with a nice tone (not over the top) and would be fairly easy to live with day to day.

Whereabouts in Wolverhampton are you from?

I will be starting the waxing (weather depending) on Sunday, and then your gonna need a bloody welding mask to look at it the shine will be so bright and I'm sure your neighbours would learn to like your H&S more if they had me firing up my nur spec (soon to be full decat with no resonater) at 6:20am
