Well you might remember some dumbass hit me about a month ago, here's the link
https://www.homemadeturbo.com/forum/...2175#msg432175 well I got the insurance money, fixed it with my brother-in-law and spend the money on other things. Here are a few pics. We painted the lips and the factory sideskirts.

18"x8" mb motorsports wheels, about 20lbs each w/o tires, not too bad for big wheels, but not light like some others.

rotora slotted rotors with hawk pads.

The car actually spools faster after the FMIC, I think it is because I also got a new intake and the turbo breaths better, but it is spooling a lot faster now. I'm waiting in the mail for an IHI vf-22, the biggest IHI turbo for the WRX, 850cc injectors, walbro, and a turbo xs Utec, then I'll go get it tune. I went with the Utec because I found one cheap, half price and it should put me in the 12's. and the I'll probably break the tranny.

my neglected hatch, I actually said I would not touch the WRX when I bought it and would spend more on the hatch. I did upgrade the turbo and redid the whole kit, but I haven't made a downpipe for it and it's been done for months.

and here's what I would like to work on next. My last name is camino, and this is an 84 El Camino, yeah long joke, all my life. Anyhow It has a v6, I would like to swap in a v8 and turbo it, or just turbo the v6 and see what happens. My dad bought it for $800, and just needs a paint job, decent condition. I'm trying to get him to sell it to me, he want's to restore it, I want to modify it.

Re: Update on the WRX accident!!!(lots of pics, 56k suck it)
 

No use restoring an 84 el camino cause they are not that cool stock, but modify the ---- out of it and it could be realy cool.

Re: Update on the WRX accident!!!(lots of pics, 56k suck it)
 

Wow that WRX is beautiful. :o

Re: Update on the WRX accident!!!(lots of pics, 56k suck it)

Re: Update on the WRX accident!!!(lots of pics, 56k suck it)

Re: Update on the WRX accident!!!(lots of pics, 56k suck it)
 

only good things to come from the 80s were turbo transams, crx's, and grand nash's, everything else sucked ( i may be forgetting a few cars, please forgive my drunkenness.

Re: Update on the WRX accident!!!(lots of pics, 56k suck it)

Re: Update on the WRX accident!!!(lots of pics, 56k suck it)
 

very nice indeed, how much did insurance give you? cause it looks like you got a cf trunk, rear lip, cf hood, and rims since your last post. Holy jizm they musta paid alot

Re: Update on the WRX accident!!!(lots of pics, 56k suck it)
 

Looks good....but its not not an Evo ;)

Re: Update on the WRX accident!!!(lots of pics, 56k suck it)
 

I was gonna say bah, screw the evo, cause I prefer the WRX (solely on looks), then I remembered that my cousin has a 2004 WRX vf34, sti pinks, sti top mount, and 30k miles on the clock. Well ---- blew saturday. haha It started with some pinging, and then it was knocking really bad. He parked it at my house, i advised him to leave it there. Dumbass came later to drive it home, I get a phone call later that night cause he wants company while waiting for the tow truck, I laughed and continued browsing through eBay :D

Re: Update on the WRX accident!!!(lots of pics, 56k suck it)
 

Nice car, but you forgot to paint the boot lid and hood the correct color in case you hadn't noticed.
This is just what the car needs:

funny, It runs high 13's now for a full interior car, not too bad. I'll make it faster, parts are on the way.

Insurance gave me $2200, I told them my exhaust got bent, it was but that happened before ;),so they payed for a new exhaust, I just went to the muffler shop and got it fixed for $20.

Baldur, if you want to send me those things, I'll take them.
I like evo's they are better cars, faster and handle better, but I like the way the wrx looks better.

Re: Update on the WRX accident!!!(lots of pics, 56k suck it)
 

STI's better than an Evo ;)
