SatinWhitePearl - Quick Intro

Hey All,

I've been lurking on this forum, for quite some time, and thought it'd be a good idea to introduce myself and some of my past projects.

With my STi project completed, in the process of being parted-out and trying to figure out what to do next, a FR-S / BRZ came to mind.

I daily a '11 Honda Civic Si Sedan and am fond of the modification potential the FR-S / BRZ possesses, much like that of my Honda Civic Si; I won't be making a decision until my STi sells, but time will tell.

Thank you,

-Chris

Here's a couple shots of my past projects:

'00 Honda Civic Si:





'05 BMW 330Ci ZHP:





'07 Subaru STi - approx. 4,600 original miles and for sale!

Thank you, it was a lot of work to build; I think the end results were worth it though.

Thank you, it was pretty quick: 372awhp on pump @1 19lbs.

The car was gutted a well, just two carbon Status Ring shells and that was pretty much it, haha.

You're still trying to sell your STi? I remember seeing it a couple years ago at a meet. Nice to see it has come a long way since then. GLWS

Thank you!

Yes, the car is "officially" for sale, now, and the part out has been under way for quite some time. I will say it's quite hard to sell high-end parts, even at used prices.

The car definitely came a long ways and I'm quite saddened to be taking it apart, but I've got other plans.

I really, really, want to test drive a BRZ, can't wait to make that want a reality.

Thank you for the warm welcome and support, I appreciate it!

Does anyone happen to know if we'll be able to expect an STi version of the BRZ, within the next year or two?

Thank you,
