60#s
even on stock pulley

 

42`s are enough for down to a 2.9 pulley

 

if you want ''enough'' go with the 42#s but for MOAR HORSE MOAR ****** get 60#s

 

dammit i wanna turbo my ****! what do you guys think of the zzp kit?

 

Top quality. Go with air-air for cooling

 

i think im gonna just hold off on the header and dp and just save for a turbo kit for the fall

 

turbo >>> sc






sti >>> turbo 2.2

 

K thanks. The kit I got has 60s. Just wasn't sure if they were overkill/would run into any issues

 

They are harder to tune with but otherwise they are better

 

only if you like paying out your ass for insurance, gas, and every single mod you put on your car...

 

opinions.. on my car lowered with lip's sides and 17 knoig illuions..

 

thats lowered?

 

Pretty much raced my buddies wrx from a dig, he didnt launch hard but i still had 4 cars on him by 100. pretty damn sad if you ask me.

 

I think he means "picture my car with all that"

 

tell that to the two that i walked away from on friday night lol

 

Got my new rims...




Blue valve covers and lug nuts to match the calipers. Other than that the outside is all black so its not like its overdone or anything.

 

sti's arent that fast... ive walked away from a few.

 

sti's are fast low end and once u get like 80 it just dies

 

an STi is not a WRX.





and stock 305 horsepower and 290 torques in a machine that weighs only 100kg more? Don't get me wrong, I love our cars and I love what each and every one of us do to them, showing love and all, but the impreza is still a renown better car...for starters, it lasted more than 5 years.

 

Look at the price difference though

 

and one of the black bitch.I took these and did the editing.

 

its all a matter of what you want in a car... they are reknown for their awd and boxer sound n thats about it (not really performance, nor interior). I mean yea you can mod them but you can do that with any car, the parts are really pricey. everyone on this site seems to nuthug them just because of the awd, which is completely retarded to say the least. AWD has its major drawbacks along with its positives (which lets admit the only positive is the traction to prevent spinning whether on dry or wet or snow). the drivetrain losses is enough to make me not want one, let alone the extra maintenance. Even then the drivetrain doesnt really benefit handling in most real world conditions you see on a daily basis unless you launch from digs at every light . I for one would never utilize an AWD car to its limits, FWD is all I need. Ideally RWD is best for performance IMO

oh, and start looking up what prices of everything on those things cost... uhmm yea ill take a budget friendly, good mpg, low insurance costing, and FASTER (for the money) cobalt ss. Heck even for as much flack as our interiors get, they really arent that bad in the ss's. us base models are kinda an asterisk on that though


But in the end its all a matter of what you like.. i have a buddy that swears by his stage 2 WRX.. is it nice? yeah. is it fun? sure! is it something I would want? probably not.


Its just too much fun being considered an underdog in the cobalt platform while in comparison to them all the time.

 

hahahaha!
but when I go snowboarding in the midst of crazy snowstorms (my motto is: the harsher the drive, the better the ride) and this winter I really feared for my life at times going up and down those slippery ass unplowed hills. I had brand new bridgestone blizzak tires too. I love the 'balts, no matter how much hate they get, but I do feel like GM dropped the ball when they made the interior...and for god's sake why do I still have drums instead of disk brakes.


anyway, that's enough rant! I'm stuck with this baby until I become a pharmacist and have money to spend on something else
Til then I'll just enjoy my daily commutes in my baby!

 

Ran a fully bolted and tuned h22 prelude last night. it was a good run. i had him by a car and a half to 110.
