ilive2win 10-15-2011 11:35 AM

haha, that would be so funny. there is a white hatch here i can get but i just wanted a base base sti with no package since everything is going to come off anyways. the hatch is 2k more than the sedan

Might as well get the sedan. Now I want a STI too... maybe when I graduate from college... ahhaha

ilive2win 10-15-2011 03:42 PM

everyone on this thread must buy an STI now haha. i do like the sedan but i cant find one. i have a little time to find one before i sell the z but i cant find a base sedan in california

memorylasts 10-16-2011 09:37 AM

Your going to sell it faster stock... Just saying. Or sell it back to nissan stock or carmax, then go buy your STI that is really the only way it's going to move quickly.

ilive2win 10-16-2011 10:26 AM

Well there is a few buyers interested so it may go quickly how it sits. They are supposed to give me a call today

^ you'll probably get something close to your asking price too.

Also, try to negotiate a trade in as well. Kevin with the black amuse actually got more for his trade in than the quote he got from carmax.

LOL

IF you do trade in, you should trade me brakes too ;)

djpathfinder 10-16-2011 11:11 PM

The hatch is nice, but the sedan is nicer! :tup: Hope you find the sedan you want. The wife and I just picked up ours last week, after waiting a month for it to come in.

ilive2win 10-17-2011 12:17 AM

^^i think I saw your pix posted at iwsti although I'm not a member on there... Yet. Car looks good and I am going to get the sedan lol. I'm just not a patient person. Sick sti!!!

djpathfinder 10-17-2011 12:52 AM

Thanks! Look me up when you become a member there. Mods are coming (already). LOL!

ilive2win 10-17-2011 10:49 AM

^^ now I drove both the sedan and hatch and it felt like the hatch drove differently than the sedan. Is that true or is it just me being weird. Also if I post up a pic of an exhaust for the gvb would you be able to tell me what manufacturer it's from? I've been searching but I don't know who makes it but I want it

phelan 10-17-2011 11:09 AM

can't say about the STi, but the hatch feels different on the WRX trim level.

i can look at the exhaust and probably tell...unless it's one of those nameless sports ones, or an ebay exhaust lol.

kind of annoying the sedan and hatch have different exhaust options :facepalm:

djpathfinder 10-17-2011 11:25 AM

Not certain if there's any difference in wheelbase between hatch and sedan. There's negligible difference in weight, if I remember correctly. As for seating and interior dimensions, there's no difference between the two in the (front and rear) passenger compartment. The sedan is about 6" longer in total, as the back end is a little longer compared to the hatch.

ilive2win 10-17-2011 11:38 AM

Time for name that exhaust!!!!

Not the best but it's all I could find and I really doubt this is an eBay exhaust lol. I hope I have better taste than that

djpathfinder 10-17-2011 11:58 AM

It looks like either Invidia or Perrin. Likely Invidia...hard to tell in the second picture...where the pipes join under the car, there should be a plate that says "Invidia" on it, but the pic is a bit dark, so can't tell for certain. I've got the Invidia on order.

Hmm, looks like the Invidia Q300. I personally like the HKS one best.

phelan 10-17-2011 12:05 PM

whoops.

ilive2win 10-17-2011 12:06 PM

Really? I've been watching a lot of videos and that doesn't look like invidias. I guess I was wrong. Maybe it's just the tips that are different

phelan 10-17-2011 12:08 PM

phelan 10-17-2011 12:10 PM

now that i think about it, it might not be. perrin doesn't offer burnt tips. aaand...i might have to eat my words because invidia DOES have that. just their site is misleading.

invidia q300:

rudy this thread will help you a lot: Official 2011 STI Sedan Exhaust list! - Subaru Impreza WRX STI Forums: IWSTI.com

(is thi against forum rules to post up other places? lol)

ilive2win 10-17-2011 12:24 PM

It does look like the invidia with the ti/tip option. That one "looks" the best. Thinking about doing the ewg as well like I did on the evo. It has to be loud lol

Thank you for your help

If you zoom in (on a iPhone or whatever) you can kind of make out the invidia plaque in the center. It's hard to see but it's there. So you guys were right and that's a nice exhaust your getting. Did you get it with the ti tips?

phelan 10-17-2011 12:39 PM

i think next year i might splurge my bonus and get the greddy exhaust :rofl2:

Yes I did...I decided to take a chance on the Ti tips. Kind of ricey, but might go well with world rally blue. Invidia Q300 for the sedan is different in design than for the sedan. There might not be enough room for two longitudinally placed resonators, so it/they are positioned transversely.

ilive2win 10-17-2011 01:27 PM

Yup , I just heard the invidia q300 with invidia dp and gt spec headers and it sounds amazing. Thinking that will be the setup I go with exhaust wise

Invidia sounds really good, but it's loud!

That's what I want. Loud but sound really good. I miss how loud the evo was

djpathfinder 10-17-2011 06:53 PM

Q300 + catted downpipe +Cobb AP in a couple weeks. Can't wait!

you're going to suddenly discover how much you enjoy torque.

Tuned four cylinder, turbo motors make torque nowadays. He could easily make the STI as fast as the Z...however, that's not excuse for selling the Z ;)

djpathfinder 10-17-2011 07:45 PM

As it is, the stock STi is a little slower than my modded Z. With the DP, CBE and Cobb AP, it'll beat my Z for sure, sadly. :shakes head:

djpathfinder 10-17-2011 07:46 PM

...damn it! I didn't want to go down the forced induction route with my Z...

I guess there is really no excuse except immured and want a new toy lol. Kris you have to find me those sa55m's in black/red haha. It sucks they don't make them. I'm probably going with invidias full exhaust, kw coils and a set of sa55m's but what intake should I go with and who can do a pro tune in so cal?

Sorry had the day off and been looking at parts for the gvb all day lol

djpathfinder 10-17-2011 09:48 PM

Are you looking at 18" or 19"? SA55M are nice. So are SA60M

What is gvb?

ilive2win 10-18-2011 12:05 AM

I'm looking at the 18's but I'm going to go aggressive. I made the mistake of going with 19's with the evo

Do the sa60m's come in black/red or did they stop those too?

Gvb is the chassis code for the sedan. Grb is the hatch 08+

What were you unhappy with with 19" and the Evo?

Oh, I thought the STi sedan was still a "GR" body...I'm behind the times.
