Hey all.
Decided to finally join up here. If any of you are on IWSTI you might know me as Dave. I'm one of the admin's over there. I have a bit of an unhealthy obsession with rally... like most of you probably.. I'm one of those guys that gets news from the WRC beamed directly to my laptop as it happens.
Currently I'm in a 2005 2.5 RS. It's experienced the full fury of Western Pennsylvania. Currently the car is on it's 3rd front end, 2nd rear end, 2nd rear passenger quarter panel, 2nd driver fender, 2nd windshield, 2nd hood, and various other bits have been replaced. I've snapped my exhuast clean in two, smashed the car off the grown from going airborne too often, have ripped the stock skid-plate to pieces, and bent several rims.
As you can guess my insurance company just LOVES me. So much in fact they are charging over $300 a month for my RS and will be dropping me in a few weeks.
The car is going to undergo many changes in the next few days actually. I have forester XT springs and struts ready to go on. For winter I have some Dunlop Wintersport 3Ds ready to go on Legacy GT wheels. A stromung dual tip exhaust should help a bit and I currently have a custom designed light bar (similar to the rally-innovations rally car) and 1/4in thick skid plate in the works. Once the light bar is on, there are 4 hella rallye 3000s lined up. Hopefully that'll provide a start.
I plan to head to rally school next summer (money permitting) and hopefully start into competitive rallycross and then...well who knows from there?
I'll try to get some pics of later. The car as it is right now isn't too fantastic. It has borla headers, Prodrive P7s fitted with Yokohama AVS ES100s, a STi hood with Aqua reverse scoop, Hella supertones, Rally Armor UR Limited mudflaps, CB radio, and that's about it.
