im jealous :blush2:, such a clean STi, but... why the hooker boot sleeve on the intake or is it just like the heat wrap?

 

yes it's just a heat wrap, that works extremely well.

mmmm Sexy....Maybe go with one color engine bay tho saw blue and red try to go all one color will look better....And the old owner will let you keep it there because hes got a spare key to take it for a drive:ndance:

eh im not worried color wise, it's not really for show, im more of an all go and no show kinda guy, and it fucking moves. And no there are 2 keys for it, and it's the old skate tool looking key, so no fancy immobilizer on these keys.. sucks.

haha more than likely, but who wouldn't want too?

i agree, once you feel the power one of these makes, you'll never wanna go back to an eclipse... i didn't hence i sold both of mine.

Top mounto to Front mount, wow that looks goof.

yes FMIC FTW... top is useless if you want to make REAL power

Gee dude, do you have any more photos?

Nice car man (I am on my third Subie), I have no idea why you are putting her up for the winter though, Subies are made to be driven in the winter!

nope no more photo's for now
and yeah winters as long as they hold of on the salt... this thing for a 2004 looks like it was literally driven right off the showroom floor yesterday.. thats how good of condition this baby is in, and i intend to keep it this way.

notice he mentioned so the salt won't destroy the whole lower body of the car

QFT.

oh ok though it had to do with some kind of heat wrap, and yes my friend has the blue STi with gold bbs rims and it's unbelievable so much power there, love riding in it.

 

Seems like you should be making more power than that.

 

oh yeah i can make up to 500 whp, but since the previous owner was going to get a built shortblock, he had it conservatively tuned to 19psi, then decided he wanted to sell it to me, but it CAN make way more power than what it is currently putting down, it's just on a conservative tune.

Trust me, even with the current tune, this car fucking moves.. 0 to 100 comes faster than you think..

As the car sits right now, it's about a mid to low 11 second car, a few more psi, and it's easily a mid to low 10 second car.

 

Awesome vehicle. If I remember correctly you had been looking for a boosted vehicle for quite some time.

 

THIS CAR IS FUCKING FAST end of discussion, and is very clean on the inside as well as the outside

 

:agreed: Very Jealous

 

Fucking fast. :lol: My car could take this car out on 9 psi. All of you non-FI guys have no clue what fast is.

 

are you fucking serious?? your just mad that this STi could wax your eclipse
:dumbass:

 

or better yet how about this
:lightfire: or :getout:

With as much negative Karma as you have on this forum, let me look to my magic 8-ball

"all signs point to no"

sorry brosef

 

:agreed: Keep us posted, makes me kinda wanna go buy one

 

oh like the neg nugs ever mean anything anymore. i got them for posting a faux racing thing and every went all out, actually just tearstone.. lol whatevs.

 

if Russ gave you that much negative karma then im with him.. LOL

nice lookin subaru, i personally would lose the wing and debadge the trunk but to each their own.

NO WAI!!! these cars look sexy with the wing... they look fucking stupid without it.. the debadge maybe.

Debadge yes lose the wing NO!!! thats the trade mark ha

I agree... trademark looks hott

with a nice set of wide aftermarket wheels, a drop, and no wing, these cars are beautiful

Looking for a decent set of rims that clear the brembos so if you know of any let me know... oh NO BLACK RIMS..

beautiful sti smallville. :bigthumb: much better than your old white eclipse!

Thanks! that white eclipse was a good car.... very very solid for a 1999 (2000) but was made in august of 1999.

Nice ride, reppin perrin as well :yesway:

PERRIN FTW!! :ndance:

My g/f has his white Eclipse :lol:...still running but will prolly sell next year.

Nice upgrade Smallville(Chris) if I remember correctly. Was that Evo 9 stock in the movie>?

that gif was actually the eclipse from the first movie.. but i added the back to the future thing in there because it was epic i thought.

Nice ride but only making 313whp on a 35R...

Kind of low isn't it... especially for that turbo.

Yes low because previous owner was going to have the shortblock built over winter but sold it to me instead.. so its just a conservative tune.. i can def turn the boooost way up... and make way more.

That's what I was thinking too- that's a hefty ass turbo. I know a lot of people running 450 whp on VERY moderately tuned 35r's. I dunno though.

yeah plus keep in mind that this is being run on a mustang dyno... they are about shit.
so its at 323, so on a dynojet its more like 385 give or take.. mustang dynos read on the lower end.

I invite anyone to come over and let me take you for a ride, you won't think its low, when you go for a spin.

 

That's right... I forgot the Subaru's have pistons made from tin cans and will crack with anything more than 350whp. I know that is the case with the current STi motors when I spoke with CBRD.

I don't think there is a point to turn up the boost on a stock block... not worth the headache of going and replacing a engine. Keep low until you can afford a proper rebuild.

Only thing I hate about the large turbos and smaller motors... the lag. All DD is done in the mid-range, but turbo is made for top end power. Makes it a bit of a slug on the street. Much better for a track monster.

 

thats why she is on a conservative tune., also she doesn't lag really.. i invite you to come up and let me take ya for a ride, you'll have second thoughts! i promise.

Hey, going back to the Eclipse, was the remote starter under any warranty because inthe summer it just stopped workingso I was wondering if company might be helpful that made the kit

It was made by compustar, if it just stopped working, then the battery in the egg is dead, or the key came undone from the box that tells it that the immobilizer in the key is near the ignition. that box would be below the dash near the ECU more on the left side of the car, unplug and take that out, open it up and it's very possible the key came unlodged, it's not held in there by much. worth a shot though i suppose?

I've beaten an Evo. But it was from a roll obviously. He said he was on like 21 psi on the stock turbo.

 

example 1, this is the fastest civic around this area anyways

video1, my car vs him
YouTube - kingsario v rrsti
i always stay within headlight view

vid 2 him racing a viper. just for sake of showing you what fast is.. then you'll see back in vid 1 where i keep up with him, and this viper does not.

YouTube - kingsario vs Marcus

 

This is the MS3 on 20 psi vs a C6 Vette.

YouTube - samsel450r vs crygirl

 

A MS3 is a worthless FWD turbo car much like a NEON SRT-4... sure you can add tons of money to make it fast, but in the end you can only go fast straight on some sticky tires..

I know my EVO X will destroy my SDS Eclipse that runs 23 PSI on a Vortech V1 (from a FOX Body Cobra) blower with Meth... on any corner course. In a straight line my ECLIPSE is faster than my EVO... I have no doubt in my mind. The Eclipse I will be at 150mph in seconds... EVEN my heavily modified EVO X with a stock turbo and a nearly all the bolt on's possible will not hang with it.

But a new CBRD turbo will be going in the X in the spring to remedy this issue... along with a CNC exhaust manifold and stage 1 cams...

 

Exactly right. I wouldn't even bother taking my car to a road course or anything like that with all of these little turbo AWD cars running around. I have enough trouble staying in a straight line while in boost.
