    I loved my old Mazda! It is being picked up from my driveway today. I almost shed a tear.

    The MNSubaru stickers are pretty small and tasteful. Talk to WRX1 or bikerboy. Not sure if anyone else has them. Welcome...

    Hey, my name's Ben, I'm from the Mankato area. I'm 17 and recently purchased a 2005 WRX repairable for $4500. Pain in the ass, but after about 2 months, it's nearing completion. I'll hopefully be taking it in for paint in a week or so.

    I don't know how many of you post on MN Sport Compacts, but I go by Audious on there, too. I'm also Chris' brother on there (RX7oneluv).

    Hope to see you guys when I get my WRX done.

    Pictures from when it was Indiana, some moron wrapped it around a tree.

    One picture of it before the new front clip.

    I'll get more pictures soon, but we're gonna be putting the wheels back on here, soon. Need to get a radiator and a few other things before it goes in for paint.

    Yeah, the 7 was cool, but he's really happy with his Benz. 7 was always on timeout anyways.

    Came over from the NASIOC forum on the recomendation from an Australian salesman at the Subie Dealership in Duluth.

    I'm not in MN but am close enough as far as I'm concerned considering the closest major city in WI is Madison.

    I just started a turbo project on my 98 OBS so any advice or inexpensive parts you can offer are appreciated.

    Maybe when I'm done I'll be able to make it to a meet or two.

    Otherwise, I'm the one in Superior driving the black OBS with massive hail damage.

    Don't need to be from MN. Welcome to the club. Please share your experiences with turboing you car. People love the project threads... and you can get a lot of helpful info from others too.

    yeah unfortunatly i work only part time for $9 an hour and have to pay off the WRX which is like $345 for payments, $250 for insurance and probably over $200 for gas every month. if anyone has any kind of creative/cheap ideas if i ever come across the topic, im more than happy to hear them. i have very little spending money. im getting exhaust tomorrow afternoon though for my first real addition, other than mesh grilles that i put on.

    Firestone Friday is when everyone piles into the Firestone lot on University, a couple blocks west of Snelling and they sit around and eat Wendy's and dodge drunk maniac homeless people.
