I'm amazed at how many phases of changes this car has gone through and everyone of them has been carefully thought out and put together.
NF ftw. Nuke and the crew are definitely what got me where I am today. As for the funding the recent stuff.... http://mnsubaru.com/threads/fs-gred...w-injectors-act-clutch-kartboy-shifter.41805/ http://mnsubaru.com/threads/fs-tial-mv-r-44mm-ewg.42098/ http://mnsubaru.com/threads/fs-forge-bpv-and-turbosmart-dual-port-bov-bpv-for-08-wrx.42089/ ^I think every item was sold and shipped within 2 weeks of listing.
Quick 40-140 video: 3rd, 4th, and 5th Gear Here's another video: 3rd Gear Pull @ 32psi (boost gauge goes wacky above 30psi) 2nd Gear Brake Boost, 3rd, 4th @ 30psi I found this video (not mine) and thought it was a funny comparison: Stock 2011 WRX 0-140mph
^^^^great pulls Gives me an idea for mine if i stay with my rotated setup... Stock comparison did make giggle a lil bit...
Ha the stock comparison made me LOL...and then almost cry a little because I realized the my STi is hardly quicker than that
Stock looks OK up to around 60 or 80 but after that it's just a dog. 130-140 takes nearly 10 seconds! Speeding Bullet goes 0-140 in 10 seconds!
That's only because the white ranger was operating under strict guidelines. The team didn't expect to exit the event as quickly as we did. But at least we were able to find out the owner can drive tens.
This is in reference to Speeding Bullet at the MAP event last summer. They let them run all day Saturday and then booted after 2 passes on Sunday for no roll cage.
Ben, I love how even your videos are of better quality then the rest of the pack. Doing everything proper, it really makes a difference. What are you using to record your videos? Almost seems like maybe a GoPro with a chest mount? Or a DSLR mounted somehow?
The exhaust videos are all done with a Canon 7D or 5DII. The speedo videos are a Canon G12 on a suction cup mount like the GoPro comes with. It is stuck to the driver's side window right next to my head. It's not perfectly stable due to the longish arm but I like the angle the best. The speedo videos I've seen with hard mounted GoPros are all more stable but there really isn't any way to get the boost gauge in the shot.
Very sweet, Ben! Car looks great! I'm really wishing I would have had the money for a newer WRX when I purchased my current ride.
It's OK. Whenever. Could have rode along at DCTC if you didn't leave so quick! Thanks. My brother had a 2010 Mazda3 and then traded up to a 2011 MS3. It's pretty nice car. Cheaper than a WRX.
Good, I have a set of worn Dunlops that Discount Tires wants to charge me $3/tire to discard. You just said tires, nothing about condition. Win/win for us both.
Paying Nuke to allow me to crap my pants seems like legit Science. I'll drop a payment off tomorrow night.
Don't worry I will also be giving paid rides soon and all proceeds goto Nuke as well. In the west Metro
Driving with you is crazy, but fun. I know in the back of my head you know what you are doing (most of the time) so that lets me enjoy the moment more.... while still white knuckle holding on for dear life. Ben puts the fear of God in me.
You silly guy you, I only give you the kiddy $1 rides. When you're all grown up and can reach the bar stool and can afford to buy the adult tickets then I'll give you adult ride lol Ben's rides are to Die for lmao
Not planning on black wheels. I think the fully blacked out look is really played out at this point. Maybe Derek could whip up some emblems for me though.
