Legacy GT Wagon

[04_STi]

Hey, for those of you who dont know me, my names Jake. Ive been on the forums for a while now, got bored, and finally decided to make a journal.

In 2007 a finished school and landed and pretty sweet job. With good money coming in, i figured id upgrade from the beater and get a WRX and find out what the AWD craze was all about. I started doing my research and decided not to get a WRX. I held out for one more year, saved my moneys and bought an STi instead, and of course, no regrets. In April of 2008 I signed all the papers and was now the proud owner of an 04 JBP STi.

When i first brought the car home, i wanted to buy every cool little gizmo for it, but decided to hold off. I decided to learn how to drive it with the power it has. And let me tell you, very different from what i was driving before. But about 4 months later, the mod bug bit me.

These are the mods Ive gotten done so far...
