Totally man. So hot. Love it!

It is brutal daily driving it though. It's one thing if it was stock but this one is modded nicely. This winter was especially harsh on my WRX. It went from clean/mint to looking like it got beat up in the playground haha

ballin'!
that is too sick haha
nice job, Ryan.

Inspired by Nismodrifter some updates from last decade for my heap.

2008

Took a roadtip to Vancouver with my dad as Honda Tuning was shooting the car for a magazine feature. Did the drive with a stupid loud Spoon N1 exhaust with a race header. Worst idea ever with ridiculous drone for 12+ hours and swore off long road tips in this car when I returned (more on that later). Also sold the whole exhaust system immediately after I got back for the Greddy Spectrum Elite which was pictured above somewhere.









2008 was a long time ago..… who knows what the hell else happened.


2009

Magazine feature finally was released after taking forever to make it to print. Honda Tuning July 2009 issue.









Also right around this time I decided to take the car for some rips around Racecity so brake upgrades, CTR rear sway, Skunk 2 LCA’s and Beak tie bar. After all that stupid winter driving pictured above this was all a giant pain in the ass, lots of rusty bolts. Replaced as much hardware as possible with new Honda brackets and bolts.









New Volks (these were the formula silver RE-30’s) cause I’m stupid when it comes to wheels. Totally didn’t need these nor did I really even like them that much.



Waaaaaa! Still had the old white CE’s with decent amount on the tires so I figured I’d run them bare on the track.













Also finally bought a new daily so I didn't have to destroy the car in the winter any further.

And just before winter some updated shots from Jason, aka Riced.

Thats a great looking minivan! Still have to find a body kit for mine.

I did find the window vents interfere with left hand visibility quite a bit, esp around left corners. You must have a huge blind spot with the non-see through ones.

Your update is still a few years too old!

happy to see you kept your EP3. I miss mine, some days, when I see others on the road.

Is that the rebuilt one that was recently on Kijiji?

Thanks. Mine are the OEM JDM visors, they're smoked but you can still see through them.

Lots of pictures to sift through!

Yea don't see many on the roads these days. There is a white one with a carbon wing I see in the Inglewood area quite often.

No idea. I sold it several months ago. Was not rebuilt when I bought or sold it.
