Hi all just brought my first scoobie thought I would go for something different other than my BMW and I'm liking it just got a 05 plate wrx and loving every minute of it

Hello welcome to the madhouse :yeah:

Love Trace x

Welcome fella, what BMW's have you had? Had a couple in the past myself, J reg 525i when I was 18 which I abused everytime I drove it and it never let me down loved that car! Also had an M reg 328i which was great to drive, just a shame for a 2.8 they didn't have a bit more power.

Greetings from Eastbourne fella... Getting a write little collection down this neck of the woods know:-)
Ill keep me eyes open for you...:wave:

welcome to SES mate :doubleup:

Hello & welcome matey :grin:

Welcome, the weak link on a WRX is the gearbox which limits you to around 350/380.

Basic stages are engine:

1. Exhaust (de/sports cat) turbo back, de-cat up-pipe, fuel pump (225), air filter (K&N/Green/Cosworth), remap should see you at 270/80.
2. Injectors (STI pinks) and turbo swap (VF34/35) Sti top mount, scoop and under tray should give you around 350/380

Suspension:

1. White line arbs and droplinks
2. Anti lift kit & Eibach springs
3. KGB shocks (adjustable)
4. Coilovers (BC or similar)

Brakes:

1. Up rated disks and pads (AS Performance)
2. Sti Brembos
3. Ksports!

:welcome: to SES dude!

To SES. :five:

How do

Welcome to SES :wave:

What are your plans for the car? Do you just want more power or interested in sorting the handling/brakes first for some track days? Once you've decided that, then there's plenty of options :nod:

Think you mean KYB, KGB is something slightly different ;)

Bloody iPad predictive text!

At the moment I'm after more power also I've been told the gear boxes on these ain't that good is there a different box I can put in it

The 5 spd wrx gearbox is generally ok up to around 350bhp max, 6 spds will take a lot more power but conversion can cost £1500-£2000.

In reality, i'd stick with the 5 spd for now, pushing beyond 350bhp with standard engine internals on a wrx is asking for trouble anyway imo. Most people seem to get to 320-330bhp reliably with injectors, fuel pump, decat exhaust, vf35 and remap.

:lol:
