Figured I'd start a photo thread for the Wagon. More info to come but figured i'd get some photos up at least. 2007 UGM WRX Limited Mod List- -VF39 -Sti Intercooler -Maddad TBE, DWG, Maddad Whisper -GMBCS -Bullwinkle tune(280hp 320tq) -DDM slim 35W 5000k HID, Yeller fogs w/fog mod -Kartboy endlinks -WRX sedan rear sway -TIC fender braces -Whiteline antilift -Aligned by Jeff -Tein h-tech sprangs 04' bbs Bridgestone g-force 07' stockers painted bronze w/Bridgestone Blizzak First set of photos from a parking ramp shoot
Thanks all. As for future plans, kartboy short throw, bbs's will be painted black this winter, blacked out headlights, and there will be a 2nd car seat in the back seat sometime around May 29th :hsugh: Larger injectors, fuel pump plus tunez, tokico dspecs, maybe a set of Epic Engineering springs sometime down the road. Probably way down the road due to 2nd car seat.
those future mods will go very nice with that wagon, post some pics of the black bbs's when you get em done. i think they'll look good
god that first pic looks so good, that it doesn't even look real. and the last one of the first set is pure sex too.
Except the fog light alignment is off. Killer pics, man! Can't wait to have the funds to do some heavy mods to mine.
Thanks for pointing out the fogs, now its all I see in that pic Nah, thanks for the compliments all, those fogs were aligned in my garage at one point. I know HDR isn't everyones cup o tea and i'm still learning but I have a few that just seemed to turn out right. I did have to change a few of my habits when shooting the wagon vs my ol mbp bugeye so that was a challenge at times. Black vs Silver. I'll keep updating the thread as I get more pictures taken.
I dont see this... how can you tell? What if the camera was not perfectly centered on the car? It is a parking garage what if the ground were splopped a little? Not being a pain, just want to know how one tells from these pics
Well, I had posted in this last night (or so I thought, iPhone ftl) Been waiting to see this for a long time!!! So, I guess in 5 years, when its time to move on, we just have another transaction Very happy to see these Paul; hopefully you can make it up here and we can shoot your past vs present
look at where the light hits the ground. On the drivers side the light is hitting the ground closer to the car then on the passenger side. could be a slant in the ramp though. tough to say.
Sounds like a plan Chris, you'll be first to know if I ever decide to let this one go. I'll keep ya posted on the pending Duluth trip. I'll be sure to keep the thread full of photos for ya so you don't have to fill my inbox with requests.
I'll have to get them aligned and do the whole shoot over again :emo: Or I could take a sawzall to my bumper to get to the fog light so I can adjust it :laugh:
Glad to see you're taking care of my baby Paul! Looks good. The only car I've honestly regretted selling.
Thanks again all. I agree on the front plate, i'd love to get rid of mine. A month back I was bouncing around the idea of vinyl wrapping the hood/roof/trunk in black. Not sure about it yet though.
Wow...Awesome pics of an awesome ride! Lots of stuff done to your car that I would like to do to mine in the future. I'm jealous! :biggrin: Quick question, did you have to make any changes to get the BBS wheels to fit properly in the wagon fenders with the aftermarket springs? The BBS wheels are what I want for my 05 wagon, and I'm thinking of getting a new suspension setup this spring that would probably end up putting my car a little lower than stock. Anyway, love how it looks! How does she ride as-is?
Thanks, I was lucky to find a wagon that had many of the exact mods that I wanted already installed. It was put together perfectly from the get go. Nothing special was done to fit the BBS, they just fit and fill the wells nicely. They diffinately fill the wells better than the stockers do. The ride with the htechs is great. I wanted something that was lower(for looks) and somehthig that wouldn't kill my stock struts but was a tad stiffer but family friendly(i've got a 1 yr old and one on the way). So the springs ride just as I wanted them to. Wish they were stiffer but you can't have it all.
Honestly, this thread makes me cry inside. Paul - I'll buy you Jimmy John's one day if you let me take her for a ride for old time's sake with the new hop-ups. The adult plushness and vault-like Teutonic goodness of the Luftwagen is no replacement for my dear REXNEFX. Don't you dare sell/trade it without contacting me first!
Sorry Sean, didn't mean to stir up such feelings. I'll be sure to let ya know if I ever decide to move on but i'm sorry to say it won't be anytime soon. Thinking Sti??? :yumyum:
Glad to hear the wheels and springs work together well on your wagon, thanks for the info! Just looking at your car is justification enough to seriously consider picking up that same setup for myself this spring...:yumyum: Any trouble in the ice and snow? I suppose not with your winter wheel/tire setup.
Thanks. I took over ownership earlier this spring so I have yet to drive it in the winter so we'll see but I assume all will be fine. I drove my '02 wrx with KYB AGX on Prodrives with no issues for a few years. The Teins do sit a little lower but not much.
Finally happy with the amount of scuffage, around 6 hours worth of prep. Prime/Paint scheduled for later today :biggrin:
where'd you get the etching primer?? I tried about 5 places when I did mine.. couldnt find it.. may have to redo mine as I dont think the paint will hold up well without it..
