So I figured I'll just keep this journal alive with the WRX. Got my Blendmount and mirror tap in yesterday. Easy 5 min install. I also ordered a few things I'm waiting on.

OLM HID kit 6000k for head lights
OLM Fog light led kit 6000k
OLM C-boomerang LED kit
Vision+ License plate LED kit with housing
Subispeed JDM license plate hole covers.
(Front bumper comes with holes predrilled from factory for Japan plates)

I like the little hooded gauge cluster in the center top dash. So, how is it? I'm guessing the awd makes torque steer and lack of traction from a dig a nonissue, but how bout running pulls? Is the stock WRX equivalent in power to a stag 1 or 2 MK6?

Yeah I love that screen. Boost gauge and it also has a screen that shows the AWD system in action and which wheel is getting how much power during turns etc...

The AWD is ridiculous. There is no such thing as wheel spin even when making a quick right hand turn in 1st or 2nd but of course I don't know what it would be like launching it since it's still in break in until 1k miles. Otherwise grip is freaking endless.

Power wise, I haven't pushed it yet but it feels like how my GTI was when it was stage 2. I find myself not needing to down shift to take over other cars or anything like that.

LOL I wish I left a little note in there with a link to my build thread. Apparently the lemon buyback cars go straight to auction though.
