View Full Version : Speculate on what MattR is up to...
He is selling both wide sets of wheels for his '04 STI including the most recently purchased and coveted gold RPF1s.
Is he...
Quivering in his boots because I may have a working car in '10? :)
Selling the '04 and
...buying a '10?
...buying Randy's BP car?
Dong a hub conversion?
or something else...
Wild speculation is encouraged...

BTW, the BP car could be fun on street tires.

Unless your doing something that starts with P and ends in orsche, getting rid of the STI is a bad idea. :p

Clearly he wants to trade his STI for my '08 2.5i.
Please?

My sister just picked up a loaded 2010 Outback today, I wasn't crazy about the new look and all, until I went on a test drive, WOW! Sweet car. Those new Outbacks are beefy and super nice inside.

They do look pretty bomber. If only those headlights didn't remind me of Jack Nicholson.

Did it have that new continuously variable transmission? I am curious how well those things work.

Well, I don;t knwo how much power you loose with that tranny, but its like accelerating a snow mobile, except super smooth. It really quite remarkable, you keep waiting for the shift "bump" and it never comes. I say thumbs up on Subaru's version.

Aha! based on this (http://www.seccs.org/forums/showpost.php?p=144034&postcount=5), and that he sold another intake we can surmise that MattR has in fact gone big intake and god knows what else on his STI...
Maybe.
Fess up Matt, or the other Matt will rat you out if we get him liquored up. :)

I think he did the "no more intake in the fender to get crushed by cones" mod.

Nope - stock 65mm diameter on MattR's new intake.
Damn, I should'a held out for the free booze.
