That's hardcore...

Moving to Saskatchewan just so the license plate will match your rims. ;)

I like it.
If the sea was vodka, and I was a duck.
I would swim to the bottom, and drink my way up.
But the sea isn't vodka, and I'm not a duck.
So give me the vodka, and stfu.

I'm REALLY feeling the new look.
Granted, i'd prefer 18's over 17's but not taking any respect away from you.
The car looks hot & its got the bite to match.

How abot an update on what your list of future mods are ;)

Getting some BC Racing coilovers pretty soon here and really possibly just some engine dress up things. I did a lot of up grades last year and dont really want to push anymore (already pushing 22lbs.@ peak which is good for now).

Really want a Subtle solutions rad cover and maybe a alt. cover too (lol) they are inexpensive and look nice haha, then a new heat shield for my turbo because the COBB ones suck and rattle like hell! Possibly a heat blanket instead of a shield all together.

Nice car man.   Glad to see another Subie owner from Saskatchewan..  I'm going to take a stab and say you're from southern Sask?

Great thread and I'm digging the green wheels.

Naaaaice.....Very Nice.... 8)
Pics of the FMIC.
Also, how much work is involved in installing the FMIC.
Is it a bolt on or is there cutting/drilling required?

I think I saw you driving down Albert last week (unless of course, it was a different black 08 with green wheels):)

We definitely have to organize a meet in Regina later this summer. I think there are enough Regina members now.

Absolutely!!!!!!

The FMIC does require a bit of trimming the front plastic grill on the bottom of the bumper but other than that you just have to relocate the coolant res.

Should be interesting none the less, I'll take some pic of the process :)
