if you come here to see a show car , wrong thread ! this car drive in winter and love the snow!

i m always jealous of california car with no rust at all , clean engine bay !

east coast car suffer from the weather we have here , but that the place were the AWD make sense .

so this car is used and abused !

i will not talk so much about mechanic mods for now , since my car is stock with the vf 40 turbo .

i m more interested to find the best handling than big upgrade in power for now .

the car drive now better to my taste on snow , the sway bar is a major upgrade on this cars .

i m more interested in a gear box swap and differential from sti with the DCCD.

the power is enough especially with a small turbo for driving on snow .

Ah, 06 GT manual wagon, the northern unicorn!

 

I still hate SOA for denying selling 06-08 LGT manual wagons in the US despite making them at SIA.

 

How shitty is that of you, you shitty f***er Tom Doll?!!?

A few weeks ago I sold a couple parts to a guy with a superunicorn brown 2008 facelift manual GT wagon :rolleyes:

 

 

Madrig, it's nice to see another Canadian build! Sweet wagon.

so finaly to make the wheels fit i decided to reshape the fenders !

 

from what i saw . +35 offset will need roll fenders , pull fenders and camber !

 

roll fenders is fine for me , but pull no , cause will affect the look of the body and camber if excessive i m against .

 

as a daily driver i need to keep it fonctionnel on any road and condition.

 

also the idea to take advantage of the offset to give a wider body look !

 

why not !

after mesure i will need 3/4 inch more in the rear and 1 inch in front .

this is in fact the same mesure as outback flares.

 

i did a master on the car directly fro the rear IMG_1254.thumb.JPG.f25586a73b403e0ecea8e43835936455.JPG

and worked on an other set of fenders for the front .

And some of us mild climate Canadians get stuck travelling to where it's actually cold out so we have to hibernate too. The "feels like - 36C" here doesn't make me want to enjoy the great outdoors :lol:
