SubieAA Posted February 22, 2008 Share Posted February 22, 2008 I am going to stay at work until 5 to get some stuff done. Just put on the Nokian WR G2s a month ago. We will see how wise this is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bdubs Posted February 22, 2008 Share Posted February 22, 2008 It's perfect sliding snow. Nice and slushy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SubieAA Posted February 22, 2008 Author Share Posted February 22, 2008 The Nokian's almost never slide for me. I will see if I find an unplowed parking lot later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rouar Posted February 23, 2008 Share Posted February 23, 2008 Love it! I'm on the stock RE-92s so I'm taking it easy but the awd is helpful. No sliding or fun, but I did go out to get some food. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SubieAA Posted February 24, 2008 Author Share Posted February 24, 2008 What a lot of fun I had last night. The car was a mountain goat. I really started to get into the slide; the handling was a lot of fun. I haven't enjoyed snow as much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SubieAA Posted February 24, 2008 Author Share Posted February 24, 2008 Most definitely not Yeah the snow is crazy fun sometimes isn't it I know there is a lot of information on mods in the forum, and i have read a lot. I am really interested in getting my boost to start at a lower rpm. And possibly to get a rear sway bar to aid handling, especially with a more power. Would a stage 1 mod achieve this (Cobb accessport)? The handling is so predictable which is the best part of the snow handling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would a stage 1 mod achieve this (Cobb accessport)? The handling is so predictable which is the best part of the snow handling. I have found that adding a larger rear sway bar makes the rear end want to come around a little more, acting a little bit more like a RWD car, which I like You want boost at a lower rpm, so you would generally want to replace your stock up pipe with a catless one, as this will help the turbocharger spool faster, and you will get into boost a little sooner (you can get one used out of an STi since they already come catless, and are fairly cheap). The Accessport will help smooth the car out and give a small but significant increase in power, and using it in tandem with an up pipe will slightly increase the gains. Plus, you won't have to worry about the cat in the up pipe coming apart and being sucked into the turbocharger Who's got the white GT at 0:46 of this video with cleared headlights and doesnt know how to stay on the road??? http://www.thebostonchannel.com/video/15381888/index.html Someone flew off the road! http://i119.photobucket.com/albums/o145/ejoy1220/oops.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ejoy1220 Posted February 25, 2008 Share Posted February 25, 2008 ^^^ :lol: Haha for some reason the guy in the picture just looks funny/dumbfounded as to how his car got there. I'm picturing him with a tophat, a monocle, and a glass of brandy saying, "Hmmm, it seems my automobile contraption has lost the direction of the roadway it was traveling on. Hmmm interesting, allow me to postulate how I may get this motorcoach back onto the roadway." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
