    new guy...

    hey, i have heard a lot about this board from some other ones that i was on from back in college (Central Illinois Imports, and DSMcentral) and i moved back up into the area about a year ago and a buddy told me to check out the site.

    I am a HS teacher, drive a subaru and i am trying to get rid of what is left of my DSM (project car from college). i have autoXed for a few years, and am an avid F1 fan... that is about it.

    the subaru is pretty stock still... picked it up about a year ago after i graduated.

    02 WRX
    openECU tune (very similar to cobb stage 2 )
    3" DP
    2.5" Borla Cat-Back
    22mm adjustable Cusco rear sway bar
    couple sets of autoX tires
    short ram intake (on it when i got it if there are any subaru nazi's on here, and i don't run lean)
    AEM wideband


    trying to get brakes and some springs done before i go the dragon next month but we will see how that goes.

    anyways... thanks for the space.

    thanks guys.

    have you heard of kris144? also known as akamiami? he makes a few odds and ends for the 1G dsm's. high quality 3" intake pipes and what not. he used to live in peoria i think and now lives up here... kinda surprised he isn't on this board actually.

    glad to see there are quite a few fellow DSMers on here. i hope to get another one (GVR4 actually) in the near future once i get the subaru where i want it.

    i still have my chassis (which is for sale )

    here is what it used to have before i sold it all...

    6-bolt motor with 4-bolt rear

    mods:
    Exedy stage2 3 puck ceramic clutch

    fidanza 8lbs flywheel

    stainless clutch line

    extended slave cyl rod

    balance shafts removed

    B&M fuel pressure regulator

    B&M fuel pressure guage

    EVO MR 560cc injectors

    walbro 255 fuel pump

    Kris 144 intake

    KOU hard upper IC pipe

    94 GSX dual piston calipers and rotors

    ported forced perfomance BIG 16G

    Apex'i SAFC

    emissions removed

    KYB GR2 shocks

    eibach pro-kit springs

    front and rear upper strut braces

    EEPROM ECU chipped
    ~ 6K RPM launches
    ~ 8K RPM redline
    ~ MAF based fuel cut delted
