Yah that says Ohlins. Not the fancy ones of course… but those 5″ diameter STI springs were an aesthetic nuisance, and the stock ride height was totally vibe killing. Spring rates are 7kg/mm up front and 5kg/mm in back, which is pretty standard spec for this car. Camber plates let me find that extra degree of front camber I was […]
1 This chunk of wood got a lot of compliments, until people found out that it was wood. Truthfully, I felt just fine about it, until I had to tell people what it was: birch plywood. A mature individual recently approached me about buying the WRX. His words to me were something like, “I like what you’ve done with the car […]
2 Well this update was going to wait until I had appropriately sized tires… but it’s past boring in here, and the tires are a couple weeks away at least.

An abbreviated version of this vid is always the opening scene of my porn roll, but somehow I’d never seen this version which includes a car walk through and a talk from the crying guy himself. NOTE THE BACKGROUND MUSIC! ha. You might look at the car and think POS… but […]
6 Surprise. Winter is over (or nearly at the least) and I’m shopping for other cars. It looks like I might actually have time to auto-x this season, but the GDA doesn’t excite me there. So what? There’s a lot of stuff that interests me: ZN6, AP1, AE86, AW11… but oddly, I probably think about an EK Civic the most. You […]
