sorry tony but i had too...... i also joined this forum saying the same thing will not mod....... lets just say its toooo late now.

Haha. I started with just wanting lowering springs and that's it. Ignorance is bliss and I was happy when I first started on the forum.

It's hard not to mod when you hang around modders.

Some good lines in there :lol:

Right at the moment, I'm quite happy with it. That's not to say that down the track I won't get some coilovers with fully adjustable shocks (probably sooner than later to reduce some of the bump harshness) and look at other options to improve braking and handling. Also something to release some of the exhaust note. But for the time being I can't justify spending a few grand on it when I'm not pushing its boundaries yet, particularly with the extended warranty

by **Arith** » Sun Jan 04, 2009 1:34 pm

Haha. I got offered free extended warranty from Subaru as well (5 years), which I most likely negated with the mods I've slapped on (or totally stock according to Norm's definition).

But considering you do a lot of spirited driving, Tony, I'm surprised you haven't gone down the modding path earlier. Because once you push it to the limits and realise the car doesn't feel very stable or could be a lot better, modding is a cure. Better control, better braking, better launching, and a lot more fun! Unleash your beast!

He's known as the vanilla non-modding guy now.. after he starts modding he won't be special any more! :lol:

great post smythie,
really helped me alot.
out of interest i know people were talking about wether to cover the hole where the resonator was, what should i do with a gt? cover it or leave it open.
thanks again mate very imformative

by **smythie** » Wed Aug 25, 2010 7:57 pm

I would personally cover it up unless you were going to stick a pipe on it to run down to the front bar. It'll be sucking a proportion of hotter engine bay gas rather than air over top of the radiator if left open.
