Wooh. That OBP '06... I dunno, that color really gets me going for the 2006s..

JC, I had your shot of the RS in front of the grafitti as my desktop for quite awhile, but..

.. you've been traded out this month for Mumbles' snow shot. =D

Man that grill is begging for a FMIC.

Honestly the wheel gap doesn't bug me, as much as your unpainted sideskirts (Yes, mine are unpainted too. )

Other than that, what a beauty!

DIAMA! GCs and GMs get topmounts bish! No, really... get a WRX manifold, PC it red, toss on a stock STi topmount (v7 or newer) for less than half what a decent front mount costs... and have a better setup that draws less unwanted attention.

DIAMA?

Yah, I'd say the majority of the time people put front mounts on their Subaru, it's unnecessary. A fatty top mount will yield less lag and if the turbo and DP are properly shielded, it should rarely heat soak. It's just what came to mind looking at GC8.Love's grill.

Ya well for now his car is nicer than mine. Going back to school breaks the modification balls. I'm honored that my car made someone's desktop though. Your car looks a little too stock, you should get on that.

Yeah, the only wing I'm even ambivalent on is the WRX sedan wing. It's too flat and has weird lines. All the rest are groovy.

Holy cow. Of course, I had seen your avatar image plenty of times, but never bothered to look that close. . . you have a Talon!

No prob. Yours is fine, I just needed to change it for a bit. And yeah, ours is so painfully stock at the moment. Moving and job hunting kind of delays things quite a bit.. Not to mention that all my hoarded goodies for the RS are packed up in boxes back East awaiting transport..

Right now I'd kill for a CAI and an exhaust package, but it's not going to happen until I get back on my feet. The car's just soo quiet. Once in awhile I have to look at the tach to make sure it's running (the car), 'else I might overstart it - it's a little silly, I know, but you can hardly tell.

It's tough to go from the loud and rough LS1 to the slightly rough and quiet boxer. =D

Anyhow, that and some AGXs would be nice. I'll get around to it soon. It also sucks to not have a garage at the moment. No leisurely or "anytime" installs for me.

BTW, I'm not replying to that PM yet, I'm not at home ("stuck" in Stockton right now), but I will.

Yeah, the sideskirts.. it'll happen sometime. I have the spats hanging around somewhere too, so..

I'm going to have to second the TMIC, though. Unless I sprayed the FMIC black. It's just too much of a giveaway for my taste, otherwise.

That Pace TMIC is hottt.. and so is the FMIC..

I can't bash a TSi. . .

Aside from, you know, the fact that it's an Eagle. . .

I jest. I had a Vision TSi until recently. It was a nice vehicle until it hit 80,000mi. Then it just kinda gave up.

So I'm guessing that's a '97 or '98. Is it the AWD version?

It it's a "Talon TSi" then by definition, it's got AWD. That's like asking "nice WRX, is it the turbo one?"

TSi doesn't mean awd, some are FWD.

Really? I was under the impression that the TSi was the AWD Turbo version, i.e. it's the Eagle version of the Eclipse GSX.

Talon DL = Eclipse GS
Talon ES = Eclipse GST
Talon TSi = Eclipse GSX

And there was no Talon that matched the base Eclipse, since the Talon was the "upscale" brand for that car.

What's the actual mapping between Talon and Eclipse if I'm wrong?
