Hey everybody,

Just wanted to introduce myself real quick. Was originally looking for a turbobrick to daily instead of my evo and B00M this postal popped up for a deal I coulnd't pass up and now I'm here! Although I say it's a daily, my dailies in the past have never really withstood the test of time in terms of not being modified.... so pics of mods to be expected in the future lol.

Without further ado quick snap of the ride in all of it's stock glory.

Looks pretty clean! Great starting point for an EJ20R swap. :D

I LOVE IT! As much I don't like the complexity of the Dual stage turbo setups from the JDM BG5's. You totally should do it, JDM Clone would be amazing. Find a front cut and get everything in there :D

Thanks guys for all the support, believe it or not she has over 210k! I've got some parts en route but postage it seems they're going to take a bit to get here so. As far swaps go I was leaning towards an ej207 swap or ej20H because that's what my pops had in his GTB when we lived in Japan, this portion is a long ways off and I'd probably have to sell the Evo before I do this lol.

EDIT: oh and if anybody has a lead on a hipposleek spoiler please PM me, currently looking for one.

Sooo, got some parts in. Some good ol' ganadors and from what I could tell these are MY99 WRX Type RA floor mats.. or I could be completely wrong but they still look awesome on the interior and I really love the blue on the inside. and ofc can't go wrong w/ a sti key

Super awesome. Kinda wish my Postal was more car than rust, I'd be driving it otherwise. Looks like a fresh base for a project!

Yay! Let the mods begin. :evil1:

Reminds me I still need to get an STI key for mine. I have a regular aftermarket ugly key that needs replacing.
