I'm the 2nd owner of a 2006 WRX TR that I purchased in 2007 with 2700 miles. I now have 140K miles on it and I don't baby it. I did blow out the 5 speed three separate times and eventually did the STi6 speed swap using a non-dccd 04' style a few years ago. I just had a full compression test and leak down test for mine in May and no issues with rings (I guess these are notorious for running lean in cyclinder 4 and usually the first to go but so far mine's solid). I do have some mods on mine including a VF39 turbo upgrade and an open tune. I'm running a MBC to hold around 17 PSI. I personally love these cars and find them easy to work on. Someone already referenced IPS about tuning and there's a place in Sunbury called SlowMotion that also tunes Subie's with your AccessPort. I've heard IPS can be a bit agressive with tunes but I'm not speaking from experience (only from what I've heard).

It was nice meeting you Miller and your Dart was pretty BA. I can't wait to do it again... I'm sure Greg will get me out in some autocross soon enough.

My poor truck. I will work on getting some pix of that too.

Hi everyone, My name is Andrew and I live up north in Marion. I own a 2006 Subaru Impreza WRX TR (obsidian black with tan leather interior). This is my 2nd Subie... I fell in love with these cars after my 99' RS. I have several mods on my car... just to list a few: - 3" turbo back exhaust (catless dp) - TurboXS BOV - nameless CAI w/ K&N filter - VF39 turbo - ECU reflash (not the greatest tune and needs update flash) - 2004 non-DCCD Suretrak 6 speed swap which includes R180 rearend (3.90 ratio) and full Brembo brakes set. - cosmetic stuff like HID kit, tail light tint, window tint, etc. I also own a 97' Nissan hardbody truck as well that was fairly nice condition until some woman decided to use the back of my truck to stop her car a few weeks ago. So now I'm about to own it as a salvage title and need to some repairs. I ride motorcycles as well and presently own a 2001 Honda CBR 929 RR. I purchased that as a gift to myself after a separation from my ex-wife since I "wasn't allowed to own one" during my marriage. I'm sure I met some of you at Mid Ohio on Monday. I want to personally thank Jon (orangedot3083) for the instructions during track day. Not to mention the butthole puckering ride alongs I encountered in his 04' STi. I have to say, that day was one of the best days of my life. Austin also gave me a rather terrifying ride during the down pour in his Miata so thank you for that as well. I will try and post some pix of my rides on here shortly. Thanks
