Moving on from the Accord - 2011 WRX Hatch

Congrats man, thats a sick ride! Not sure that i would have the balls to buy another black expensive car if the winters were that bad and had to drive it during those times. But it is hard to say no to black when its all clean and shiny!

Yeah, as you can see by my sig, my car looks pretty gross at times...

Wow, looks great. Did you get BlueBat pre-cut overlays? Were they professionally installed? How much did it cost you? I still haven't done anything to change the look of my car, but the tail light overlays are definitely on my list of things to do. I have done some performance mods.

First, I got snow tires on steelies. That was always the plan. Got them on Friday (top photo), and got a pile of snow the next day (bottom photo). The wheel/tire combo has been working great. The AWD grip is very impressive.

Then, it all started with the SPT cat back exhaust. Stumbled across a trade locally.

After that things kind of just snowballed.

SPT Cat Back Exhaust
MODE Short Shifter
Custom "Stage 1" Tune
COBB Downpipe
Custom "Stage 2" Tune
IPR TMIC
Forge BPV
Defi Boost Gauge
SMY Dual Gauge Pod
Walbro Fuel Pump
Custom "Stage 2+" Tune
Kartboy Shifter Bushings

I'm just over 300WHP and well over 300WTQ now. The car is a lot of fun, and the shifter feels so much better with the bushings and short shift lever. The grip in the snow is incredible, but I can't wait to get my summer tires back on!

Great choice in modifications

Great great mods man!!!!! I've been thinking about getting an 08 wrx wagon that's at the dealership I work for. They want $14k for it.

Thanks guys! Lovin' the new car!

That's a pretty darn good price. Usually I'd always say go for the 09 at least, but for that price you could get the 08 and throw the VF52 on for about a grand to get the power you're missing, and still come out ahead price-wise.
