That looks like a good place to do some doughnuts in your STI

Actually this entire drive(probably 30-35 miles) would have been sick to shred in the STI! But it's super muddy right now, my truck has a hell of a time getting up here in 4WD. Haha but when it's dry it'd be dope.

So basically the whole drive is this. 8-12 inch ruts. Massive puddles of water, which is almost a clay type of base. So it's sticky, and sucks you in bad. The Chevy gets a work out! Haha I have it slammed almost the whole time to have speed to get through some of them. It's actually a lot of fun! But if you get stuck you are SOL.

Looks like some amazing views too. How often do you take out the STI? More than the GTI?

Lol, I don't have it yet. I ordered it. Which is a love/hate deal. I get what I want, but I have to wait. And that sucks dick for sure!! I get it in July, hopefully.

Yes sir. He posted up some pics. I'm a tad bit jelly.

I bought mine from DBC for $237.95 last year (that's WITH the 2 liters of new coolant). Is this still the same company?

Hahaha oh okay lol. Life is hard ;(

My aunt has a 2013 Pearl White STI. I drove it for two weeks. It's such an amazing car. It gives you chills when you drive it.

Your gonna have an exciting summer

Are you still going to keep the GTI?

No, I'm gonna sell the GTI, and sell my 78 GMC K1500. Then buy a mid 80's short bed truck. Lower it(not slammed) and rebuild it. S/C it, and make a killer sleeper out of it.

 

[Subie2013]

Whoops mid 80's Chevy pick up. Like a c10 or something. Short bed.

 

[kdisjubjub]

Poor GTI ;(

That sounds sick, will be a nice long project.

Ah. Haven't been active enough on here to notice that but that's never a good sign. We all know ECS is reliable and fast (just not usually the cheapest). That's the best non-dealer route I know of that's still 100% credible. MJM are a bunch of d-bags, wouldn't recommend them either.

Yes sir. Should be super fun! And freaking expensive. at least drive train and what not. I can do body work, and my dad owns a shop. So paint is practically free. I only pay for material, and I'll paint the truck myself.

I agree with this. ECS is the bomb for customs service. It's just everything else that lacks a little.

Morning everyone, hope you all are having a good Monday thus far.
