Where do i start?

well. i purchased around may/june last year from a private seller. The car was pretty much stock, it just came with a sony amp n sub (removed it the next day). This car was bit different to the other liberty i see on the road.

The car was a 2006 model that meant to be 'limited' :lol: it came with Sti lip spoiler, those special material for the seats with red lining, don't know what else is different :oops:

After a few months, my first modifcation for the car was installing HID lights which my friend got me. 8000k HID was just too white because the visble distance isn't too great. So i do plann to get some 6000k later on down the road. :wink: also changed the parkers and number plate lights to Raybrig white bulbs.

Just one or 2 weeks later, I thought it was be awesome to take the resonator. But then since I'm doing something to the intake, i want to just do it right the first time :o So I got my saving together and spent on a Flatt Racing, cold air intake and with the extra $100 left, i purchased a set of Sti, Stainless Steel Pedal Set and started teaching myself heel and toe :D

I have researched and couldn't find much bolt on exhaust parts for the 2.0R NA. But couple of months flew by, and i found some bolt exhaust for my car.

It is a rear axle back duel outlet exhaust. Currently saving up for the centre pipe.

YESTERDAY. Saw 2 boxes outside my house and quickly opened them :P haha

Try to keep the piping no more than 2.5"

I love the 2R. I have the older version in my Impreza gC8 and its sweet. I pray I can install the Hydra EMS in it to see how much more power is left in it.

If you're not happy about the lighting distance, going to 6000K HID bulbs will make little difference. Even 4200K will give you more useable light; any higher than that is really compromising performance for bling.

Personally if you want the best lights which are focused properly and give a good even spread of light, get rid of the HIDs and put in some good H7 halogen bulbs in. The Osram Rallye 65W globes will give about 700lumens more than standard bulbs. (2100 lumens compared to around 1200 to 1400lumens stock bulbs).

They are the best bulbs you can get for the H7 holder, that's why ;) They are 4200K. Most significant is the 2100 lumens light output and the fact that they are rated at 500hours MTBF.

I prefer IPF. Very very bright and nice road light.
