- Thread starter toomes
- Start date
Some new initiatives will be in the pipeline for the spring, I hope to keep you all entertained with some gorgeous pictures as the progress begins.
- US first Varis Wide Body Kit (top to bottom/soup to nuts), currently the only other one that I know that exists is the official ProDrive car.
- Suede wrapped dash/doors
- Back seats will be removed and the car will be dynomat covered to keep things quiet in the back 3/4.
- Interior will be recarpeted.
- AirLift performance suspension.
- Rims will be a welcome surprise.
Happy new year.

The weight offset is true, I am not over concerned with it anymore since I am ripping my seats out and the spare tire, I have 36 sq ft to use so far, I am okay with my low and slow stg2+ hybrid that I have for now 
I would like to show the car next year at majority of the big east coast meets and work towards being sponsored.

Oh sweet! Coming along very nicely!
Taking some time to do a very small audio upgrade to the car this week - I have had a pair of Focal Polyglass 165's sitting around for about 18 months collecting dust...
As most Subaru modifiers know, these cars clip together. 6 screws and a quick pop pop pop and we have a naked door!
Oh look...water building up already. Time to check the seals.
Some side by side comparison.
When it comes to transferring the shroud, from the stock speaker to the aftermarket speaker, if you didn't buy a 6.25" get new ones from Crutchfield. My Focals are 6.5 and will no
Harness time! I haven't done this stuff since college and forgot how much I loved it.
Going to throw some dynomat on the doors later this week. Most likely, I will cover the inside and outer panel as well. I am not really caring about all the weight I will eventually add, I am preferring the car as a whole, rather than who's fastest in a straight line.

Consider also rubberized spray for some of the panels. I did this to my trunk and the noise was cut in half. :tup:

Oh I haven't even considered that. I'm going to look into that because my doors sound like garbage can lids. I think we have some in the factory. Ima gonna check now.
