This journal is more or less really for me to keep up with what I really want to do to the car and be able to keep track of the changes that I have made to the list and the car.


The car will be my DD/Track car so it still has to remain very street able. In the future I will more than likely do a rotated mount turbo kit that allows me to keep my TMIC.

It's not much, but the car should be getting some nice upgrades after tax time. In fact I have Advan AD08 265/35R/18's ordered from the local tire place for the wheels to come.

 

[Z1107]

nice ride

 

[GA Scooby]

Thanks man. I'm trying to switch over and spend a little more time here. Hopefully this will make me want to.

Jasper GA huh? Who do you use for tuning?

 

[IGOTASTi]

Very nice! Glad to have some more 2011 STi's on here.

 

[GA Scooby]

What class are you running? Experiance will triumph all. I have an 09 with a catback and panel filter that i wipe the floor with in BSP. The best mod is the drive mod bro. I Love the car by the way!!!

Oh trust me I know. I am in STU or I was the last time I ran. I haven't raced since the coilovers have been put on. When I last raced though I beat everyone in BSP and STU. I really hate the feel of these damn tires though. I'm excited as hell because I will be in BSP with the coilovers and 265's with a 180 UTQG. Should be challenging

Thanks for the compliments.

 

[GA Scooby]

I run 17x8's with Hoosier R6's!!!!!

Dammit! What size tire?

 

[Z1107]

Thanks man. I'm trying to switch over and spend a little more time here. Hopefully this will make me want to.

Jasper GA huh? Who do you use for tuning?

Allpro in Alpharetta.

 

[GA Scooby]

225 45!!!!! Just see the videos on Facebook!!!

You run all that on a GR?!

 

[GA Scooby]

Allpro in Alpharetta.

I've heard good things about them. I use Topspeed.

 

[Z1107]

I've heard good things about them but I've noticed that most of the subie owners I've seen use allpro.

 

[GA Scooby]

I've heard good things about them but I've noticed that most of the subie owners I've seen use allpro.

Thats the consensus on WRXatlanta I've seen. I went with Topspeed back when I worked for a local shop that had their cars tuned by Doug over there. Should be getting a protune after tax time.

 

[GA Scooby]

Yep! I also do all my own tuning!!!

Damn I've heard of lessening rotational mass but man that is way lower than even OEM tire size. I'm eager to hear your ideas on using the skinnier tire

 

[GA Scooby]

Ive had good results so far.

How much does your combo weigh?

 

[GA Scooby]

Not sure actually.

On the Topspeed topic: Scott Seigel an I had issues years ago but hes a greaty tuner.

Yea Scott is well Scott. There was a big deal when he left Topspeed for forged and took the whole Topspeed staff with him. You're right though great tuner.

 

[GA Scooby]

I havent had dealings with him or that shop in a long time after that.

Who forged or Topspeed?

 

[GA Scooby]

Scott.

Ahhh I see. It was shitty but thats the business side of it. He didn't stay long at forged IIRC. Then he became a "consultant".

 

[Z1107]

Next time you're up in the ATL give Allpro a call, they are a good crew. And plus they aren't full of themselves like the other tuners here charging out the ass for a basic tune.

What's their usual rate?
