Friends Subaru WRX, Thought I'd Share

Did a photoshoot of a friends WRX, so let me know how you guys like the photos and his car :P He plans on going lower soon for H2O and getting a drift spoiler and going RWD this winter hopefully (spoiler for sure hopefully)

PS. Please dont do "stance is dumb" crap, Opinions are useless on the internet.














Let me know what you think of the photos, trying to get better :P

All HQ Photos can be found here http://outlawstar98.minus.com/mboAIg7Iy4FoCd

A little over-edited and filterized and polarized and whatever terminology applies, I prefer photos that are more natural so I can admire the focus of the piece and desire it.

But I don't know anything about photography, I just posted to say stance is dumb.

Does he really have a sticker that says "tight buttholes"?
And I thought the fatlace stickers were stupid...

How can he go lower? Is this just a parking thing? Not trying to be a ****, just seems silly for a car actually meant to perform.

It seems like given the WRXs drivetrain, it would be fairly difficult and expensive to do a full RWD conversion, and given that this clearly isn't an all-out track car, I'm a little perplexed why you would do that. If you want a nice, RWD sedan, why not start with a RWD sedan in the first place instead of spending this kind of time and money on a car which was designed so heavily around an AWD system

To be different. and it is not that hard, people make kits to do that. Just look at the Orange Brother (drifting team) They had WRX/STI that was coverted to RWD easily.



Its a WRX not a STI people, hate to break it to some of you but some people dont race their cars lol.

He is going to remove the lip kit so he can go lower about a inch or so. My friend chris is lower then this WRX is and he still drives it like he stole it.



Worst thing about this forum is are the ****s who hate what other people do lol.

Actually it's actually very cheap and not very time consuming to go rwd with a wrx... Welded center diff and a rear LSD so it functions the right way. However the axles are extremely weak and snap often.

FYI my 97 sti that was widebody/flared/rwd dropped over 2 seconds off my best lap time at a semi local track to me when I was in Japan after I added weight and went RWD. Added weight was due to doing a nissan rear diff(r200)/axles so I wouldn't snap stock axles.
