The S2000s absolutely killed me on braking. I'd pull on them like they were stationary coming out of a corner, then it's like they teleported right up my ass at the next corner entry. It was unbelievable.

Nice one Owen

Cheers Jackson. How's your beast coming along? Have you put it on a track yet?

Yeah good...gots some plans for it, hopefully be done by end of year...I want to some tracks next with wrx club

Developed a series of cracks from my up pipe and headers.

Tomei twin scroll headers have been installed, as well as a new AVO mid section. Got a little bit too excited whilst putting thru my Tomei order though...

Those headers look awesome - I've been eyeing them off, because they should bolt right on to my car - I might hold off on the cams until I explode my engine and need a new one though.

This should fix the exhaust leak I suppose though.

Very nice!

if you don't mind me asking, where did you get the rear diffuser?

They won't bolt onto your car. Flanges and up pipe is completely different, in shape and length. Extensive modification was required to fit mine.

Thanks. They're from Ultrex. It doesn't actually do anything, just for looks.

But I'm running an VF36, shouldn't this be the correct fitment?

No. STI and Liberty had very different twin scroll up pipes. Trust me, I found out the hard way

Yeah, but I'm pretty sure I already have STi up pipe and headers (otherwise the VF36 housing wouldn't fit due to the differences), so it should be a direct swap.

If you say so. Feel free to buy them and see if they fit

[dr20t]

They will fit hardwarebob's setup

But to be honest your stock jdm Sti twin scroll headers are better for under 250awkw

[owen]

I just did a Google image search and realised the VF36 is a TS turbo (for some reason I was under the impression your car had a single scroll STI conversion done)

Edit - holy shit, that's a lot of work just to "upgrade" to another stock setup...

hey owen! did they crack from too many track days? or poor quality stainless or welds?
