2006 Hawkeye WRX
Hi guys,
From NI and new to the forum so hello. Heres my first Subaru that ive owned for a week now, quite a clean 2006 example with only 36k and a full Subaru service history. Seems to have a few factory extras on it which drew me to the car, as you can see anyway.
Also has a HKS dump valve and what seems to be a decatted 2.5" center section and backbox from the downpipe back, unsure of the brand atm!
The day i got it I rolling roaded it on normal unleaded (put in by the dealer)
and it put out 239.2bhp so more than happy so far, obviously more to follow as funds gather though!
This is the only picture i have so far;
Let me know what you think
Paul

Thanks for the welcome guys.
Reason I went for the black was every Impreza I see over here is blue. Dont get me wrong its a lovely colour but uve gotta break the mould!
Only plans engine wise so far are a drop in filter, decatted downpipe, walbro fuel pump and an Ecutek map.
Suspension wise its pretty tight although ive heard that coilovers, a fast road geometry set up, upgraded bushes and a rear arb makes all the difference, at least when I get some more power
Cosmetically an STI splitter would be nice although im finding ot hard sourcing one. Anybody know where I could get one?
Also recomendations from experience on any of the above would be great!

HT Autos on here do a front splitter which is similar if not the same
I've recently dropped mine on apex springs which is cheaper option but improves greatly , I've had similar option mods so can recommend researching STAGE 1 Mods which is basically what you are trying to do .Plus a few other mods i've done below .....
