Forester S Turbo - To Stance or not to Stance

[Tinners]

The mpg kills the practicalness tbh. A non turbo would be good tho. I'm tempted to pick up an NA one as a beater and keep this one silly clean haha

Wheels back from Refurbing. Full polished lip and faces painted white.

Also painted up the fender mirror again as well as the skirts and grill. Starting to sort the lips/spats now.

Got some Cusco Coilovers coming from Japan for it atm.

Once I get the cuscos fitted and lowered should sit something like this...minus the masking tape.

This is awesome. I wonder if I can find one in the States.

Lots of them in the states. Just not the EJ20 Turbo versions I think you guys get the EJ25 non turbo ones!

Hardish to get all the JDM STi stuff too in the states.

Lame. I need something bigger than the Camaro, and the Merc is too far from being done to count on it. A Forester Turbo would have been perfect.

Absolutely love how yours looks.

If you could find one they are epic fun lol

Two friends recently sold their Silvias (s14a and rps13) and got these pair.

What's with the lattice in the rear windows? I've seen it on a few Volkswagens but never really understood what it is supposed to do.

Pretty sure the lattice is the air intake for the giant Husky that lives in the trunk area to prevent him from fogging up the whole interior.

Really nice car Tinners, enjoying watching the progress...

Pretty much this...except she isn't a husky :P

They mean I can leave the windows open and the dogs cant push out and people cant stick their hands in.

I always loved the feed/skirt extensions on rx7s/miatas/s200s/etc. SO I made myself some.
