The Official Yellow P5 Thread

[xDJ DUBx]

It's been quiet here.
How's everyone doing?
I don't have pictures yet, but I recently got AWR Mounts (Front and Side Inserts), Thunder 4-1 Header, Tein S-Tech springs and Tokico blue struts.

I do, however, have a video clip:

You a MOCC member?
Hit me up if you're ever in the I.E. or even better, the High Desert. haha

I have been working on parting out my car and getting it ready to sell so no more updates for me. (sad2) I am getting rid of car payments and using partout money to buy an Impreza, makin the Mazda to Subaru switch. Probably going to get an older Impreza wagon and doing a 2.5 liter STI engine and tranny swap with an RS OEM body kit. Can't wait! AWD, light weight, and turbo power!

On another note sweet mod purchases FightClubTheory. Do you have bigger rear sway bar and front/rear strut tower bar yet? Once you have those your suspension will be set having the good lowering springs and struts.

Great decision, and good luck. I'd love to get an update when you pick one up.
I had a 2.5RS turbo! I wish I was able to do an EJ20+ swap, though.
I'm a big Subaru/Rally enthusiast, so I definitely have plans to get my old car back.

Thanks, man - I'm definitely planning on doing front and rear bars in the near future. Being broke, like most people, sucks.
If I had any money I'd ask what parts you had left.

Yah, definately get the rear strut tower bar. That helped so much with body sway in my car. All you need is the $20-30 ebay MX-6 rear strut tower bar. That is what I got and it works great.

Yes I am (same forum name), and that's a bit out there but I'm always up for meets.

Haha, no way!
You just saved me a ton of money on my car insur---err, a rear strut tower bar.
I'll look into it. Any specific year? And no problems, whatsoever, eh?

Edit: I did a quick search and looks like 93-97 bars are common. Would these fit?

Wow, thanks!
Looks like it's been old news, but I'm glad I got it now than after forking over $150+ for a GT Spec bar (which I may still get in the future when I have money, perhaps).

Yah, those ebay strut tower bars work just as good as the GT spec stuff. They just look nicer. I painted my ebay strut tower bar a metalic black and slapped a silver mazdaspeed sticker on it and it looks like a million bucks.

Hrm, something to consider.
Well, since you're parting out, I'll gladly take it for $10 shipped, lol.
Anyway, I checked out your part-out thread. I wish I was able to get those CF eyelids!

Yah, I might be willing to sell you mine but it I will want more than $10 shipped for it. lol Thats what it will cost at least to ship it. But I actually already sold the eyelids. I got a 22mm rear Progress sway bar I will be putting up soon as well as a few other goody's

 

[mazdaspeed777]

Well I regret to say I am leaving the yellow hatch moffia. I officially got rid of the P5. Hopefully moving on to bigger and better things though one being most importantly no car payments!

 

[SuperProtege5]

what are you looking at getting?

 

[mazdaspeed777]

I am trying to find a 93-2000 Subaru Impreza wagon

 

[SuperProtege5]

very nice choice.

 

[DeanSweet]

yeah, I wouldnt mind a nice legacy GT.

 

[azmp5]

Yellow P5's unite (again). I want to paint my parking markers and side markers a clearish yellow. Any thoughts?

 

[Matt V]

Another member joins the yellow ranks!

[sethro_GT]

Thought I'd throw my hand up and join the yellow team.

Been registered for a while but got the yellow P5 around the 1st of August.

Getting the windows tinted next week, probably using Johnson brand tint.

 

[ZOOMit]

wow....so many yellow P5s...I havent gotten on here in foreeeeeveerrrrr...

 

[DeanSweet]

there used to be 3 here in Springboro I would see at least once a week... anymore I rarely see another yellow P5. Most are silver or dark blue.
