    GD Karen's 2006 WRX prepped for SCCA ESP

    I drove it down the street and back, nothing severe. I will push it through some traffic circles tomorrow morning though. I'm just too tired to mess with it any more tonight. I don't have a garage, and it got dark and cold while I was doing this. :(

    GD Karen's 2006 WRX prepped for SCCA ESP

    Mental note. Do not do a front swaybar install without dropping the subframe. It really is easier. I put the stock front swaybar back on tonight, and topped it with the solid Kartboy endlinks. The spacers don't seem necessary for the stock bar, but I still have them in case I decide to put...

    FS (MD) : stock '06 WRX exhaust and '02-'03 Sparco seat base

    FS (MD) : stock '06 WRX exhaust I have a stock '06 WRX exhaust, resonator on back that is cluttering up the shed. It's the one on the left (bigger muffler) in this picture. Less than 16K miles on it, plus 3 years of dust accumulated in the shed. Make me an offer -- if you need me to deliver it...

    Well, the 4/17 Evolution School is filled now, and a waitlist is in effect. The 7/10 date became a conflict with the mother club (WDCR) when they put their schedule out. Since there are no more available dates at Blue Crabs Stadium, AI is looking into hosting another Evolution Performance...

    GD Karen's 2006 WRX prepped for SCCA ESP

    Well, I went up to IAG today and ended up getting the Kartboy front and rear endlinks, plus a Whiteline 22mm adjustable rear sway bar. Then, I figured I'd put the Sparco in before the rain came. Evidently, the guy I bought the seat from had the 500 series "tabbed" brackets, which are only...

    GD Karen's 2006 WRX prepped for SCCA ESP

    I had the Whiteline adjustable endlinks on the car back when I ran D-Stock with the Whiteline front adjustable bar. They are also what was on the car I ran in 2007 (Justin Rest's wingless '06 WRX). One of the endlinks broke in the middle of an autocross run on Justin's car (at the '07 DC...

    GD Karen's 2006 WRX prepped for SCCA ESP

    Got my order from TurnInConcepts. I don't know what's up with the little green army men, but I laughed my ass off when I opened up the box and they fell out. I'll probably go up to IAG and get the adjustable WL rear bar and some endlinks this weekend. Not sure which endlinks to go with just yet.

    DIXIE NAT tour

    I'm skipping Dixie, but I'll be at the Atlanta Tour in May. I was asked to be the Chief of Impound for the Atlanta Tour. I just need to find a ride, since I don't really have time to drive down and back. A guy on the Atlanta Solo forums offered up an STU STi, but then hasn't contacted me since...

    I got an GoPro HD camera for the holidays, so hopefully I'll have some more video soon (once the season starts). :)

    hello :)

    This is my favorite pic of the car.... I might go out and try to repeat the pic this summer. That was when my codriver and I took the car to Bonneville (Wendover) in 2008. Obviously, it was still in stock (D stock) trim at the time.

    hello :)

    He was probably referring to the Optispark distribution system. I'm on the original on the green car, and my theory is that the green car's Optispark got all the Opti mojo... so all other Optis go bad early on. ;)

    hello :)

    I used to drive it everywhere, including from Maryland to Wendover, Utah (on the Nevada border... most car people know it as "Bonneville"). It's been to Florida and back many times, Atlanta and back, Finger Lakes and back, Oscoda (2.5 hrs north of Detroit) and back several times, Topeka (Kansas)...

    hello :)

    :lol: No one hates on the green terror. Most are simply in awe of it's 410K miles on the original block, with the heads only having been off for head gaskets at 290K. And it's not had an "easy" life, having been drag raced (13.41@106 at Mason-Dixon Dragway, in stock-stock form), autocrossed...

    GD Karen's 2006 WRX prepped for SCCA ESP

    I bought this car during my spring break in 2008, and a month later had it out at FedEx Field in full D-stock trim. I won DS at that first WDCR event, and later in the year, I won the ProSolo L1 Championship and finished 2nd in Ladies Challenge points. My car also helped James Feinberg win...

    Planing to Autox in the future

    If you've never autocrossed before, expect to get beat. Don't get upset when it happens, and don't get upset by the kind of car that beats you. My first event, I was dead last for the entire event. I was in a Fox-body Mustang that could run low 12s at the dragstrip, and I got beat by a Plymouth...

    hello :)

    I seem to get roped into joining a lot of forums. :) I'm an autocrosser, an ice hockey player, a high school teacher... I'm a lot of things. I own two LT1 Camaros (one green terror and a plain jane black one), and a hawkeye WRX. The WRX is my primary autocross car right now, though I'm throwing...
