BG: What do you drive? (PICS)

[Tokitoki]

Double + bump!

To Subaru/WRX owners: I had found a good website for parts, but have lost the address. Does anyone have a good online store for genuine parts? Need to add some things to the Christmas list!

[*Shinzon*]

Edgeautosport.com is a great website with a lot of options. Although I buy most my speed 3 parts from there they have a lot to offer other makes and I would check it out for sure. I buy from them all the time and they have a good reputation and offer discount codes quite frequently.

If they don't have something they can normally get it which is always nice.

Me and a buddy are about to drop a js32a into a 92-98 civic hatch (haven't found a rolling shell yet). Was wondering if anyone on here had experience doing a jswap, and could offer some advice. We have the parts we need; motor, tranny, ecu, motor mounts etc etc, just didn't know how bad the install would be, or if anything needed to be moved around in the engine bay to make it fit. I know the engine will be raised a few inches, going to put a cowl hood on it lol.

Id just worry about which engine year it is. I think after 2004 for that motor you have the drive-by-wire where you might need the harness/ecu/etc. Not sure if you planned on working around that.

Just picked this up on Saturday to replace my 08 civic that was getting a little too cramped. 2013 Fusion only had 10,250 miles on it.

why 3.2? and I would stick to EG shells, EK's are still pricey and do not offer anything an EG doesn't. The swap is not a normal one, so not as much info as say dropping a k20 or something. http://www.b20vtec.com/forums/j-seri...1-integra.html for info. what did you pull the engine from? a CL? and transmission choice?

Just had to share, as I loved the concept version of the '14 WRX.....

[Omnipotent]

Vroom Vroom, got a "new" car after weeks of searching for the right one. I was torn between a BRZ or a WRX, so I waited to find the right deal. I went to lunch with my brother near this MASSIVE dealership. We decided to stop for shits and giggles because they had brand new 150k+ Porsches and Audi's and shit lined up and we wanted to dream. We were walking down the line of black,silver,white cars and then.......like a sore thumb.... this baby was just STICKING out look at me. The dealership got it as a trade-in the previous day, I negotiated a disgusting price/warranty and drove home with it the same day. VROOM VROOM. My work is 40 mins away, got there in 20 mins today. I LOVE this car right now.

Looks spot on for my '09 wrx!

Great choice, enjoy!

[Quixon]

Nice find. Those are going to be increasingly rare with how "camry-esque" the brand new models are.

This x 1000. I can't say I was surprised really as the concept was far too sexy to ever be an actual, production Subaru. Still, I held out hope that more of the concept would influence the final production model. Shame on me.

It's too bad. I like their Legacy concept as well, but I now have zero faith that the final production model will bear anything more than a passing resemblance to the concept.

[Tokitoki]

After seeing the '15 and the mention of no hatchback I'm very glad I got my '14 hatch when I did. I imagine it will not be so easy to get them soon.

[Ragns]

Fuck this... not driving my car for a while.

We got lucky. They were calling for 3 - 6 overnight in Pittsburgh. Woke up this morning, nothing. Looks like it went your way instead lol.

[Quixon]

Where is that? I'm in NY and we've been getting all rain.

[Tokitoki]

Same, we have had some ridiculous rain and flooding advisories in the Bronx. The GF and I are going up to her parents tonight west of Binghamton where they are reporting they already have 3 inches of snow and could get another 2-3.

Very glad I got the snows on my car this past weekend. I figured if I put them on it wouldn't snow. Either way it's fine with me as long as I don't hit any ice.

EDIT: Forgot to add in my question because I got distracted by the snow picture.

What kind of snow tires do you guys generally use? I got a set of General Altimax since they had good reviews on TireRack, but it seems a lot of people get stuck on big brands like the Bridgestone Blizzaks. We've always used Cooper or another cheaper tire for our cars.

[Brill Weave]

Snow tires are for pussies.

[Tokitoki]

Snow tires are for pussies.

Well, summer performance tires aren't going to get me up mountains to snowboard and if I already have summers (standard on the WRX) there's no reason to get all-weather.

All I'm hearing are excuses.

You're right, I have nothing but excuses. It's not my fault my parents raised me this way!
