Default Hallsy's Blob Wagon

Took a few pics the other night after a quick clean - thought I'd post them up here

















Not the greatest of pics as the location & lighting was a bit awkward, but not too bad!!!

Had this almost a year now, usually post over on SN (although not a great deal), but stumbled across this forum the other day.

This ones got some minor tweaks, green panel filter, WR Sport back box with resonated scrubber decat, Walbro pump and RaceDynamix remap. Just right imo, drives perfectly when you are just stop/starting through town, or cruising along - but then has enough punch when you want to have fun!! I looked at a standard newage WRX and just felt a little cold, they are definitely much better once tweaked!!

When I first got it I had plans to fit some 18" P1 wheels, lower her a bit and go with STi fog covers, winglets and splitter. Thing is, for the rough roads out where I live the standard suspension & tyre size is actually just right - so decided to keep it standard in the looks department! Although, I think a subtley modded wagon looks great, so if I end up keeping her for a bit longer then maybe I'll be tempted!!

Thanks for looking!!

Very nice mate. Like the idea of standard looks and a bit more go!

Both very nice there!! Particuarly like the intake/fog mod.

I think they look great with the sti front end (even better with saloon wings but then the rear is out of proportion imo), I was just always a bit so-so about it looking like an STi rep, but then better that than the aftermarket stuff imo.

I actually have my wagon up for sale at the moment to help fund a new car for my other half, I do quite fancy a nice classic wagon maybe in the future, but if mine doesn't sell I won't be too disappointed They're a very good package after all!!
