Hey guys, my name is Will for those of you who do not know me. I am the marketing/customer relations manager here in town at GrimmSpeed. I have been known to "hop cars" quite often, so often none of them ever get finished... Well....let's see if we can hold on to this a bit! Picked up the 02 WRX from Steve-O here on the boards, I have previously owned a 02 wrb wrx that ended up in Dan Frich's hands, then I had an 06 STI that ended up in Chimera's hands under the care of Evan. Well after a long roundabout of cars look where I ended up! View attachment 25104 Well Ok, I had to sell some of the previous owner's parts but here is a QUICK sneek peak.

Very nice beginnings. Here's my suggestions: STI 6-speed (really makes driving the 2.0 fun) STI/UK300 headlights E85 Profit?
I like! No 1000's are sitting on my desk waiting to be installed/tuned with the TGV's, if i can find a killer deal on the 6 speed I would totally be down, but that is not a common thing haha! ITB's haha, yeah there is that 6k manifold out there, or the ebay rep. IDK though I feel like ITBs on forced induction will not make enough of a difference, on an NA motor they are great but forcing air....idk...
hey nice car! I 'live' two blocks from your guy's shop and roll by when I'm home to check if there are any new projects sitting around : ). so dont be alarmed if you ever see a silver wrx wagon creepin on by..
haha creepy shoes, i was thinking about lowering it but I need monies, I might actually sell the wilwood brakes for cash, look to the for sale threads!
