I am part of a local car club. If you want to check it out... then, here's the link.

Underground Revolution

This is my '97 Impreza BRIGHTON 2.2. The Car was completely stock when I bought it a year ago. So far the project looks promising. I constantly change parts... I think I'm on my third intake set up?? I'll post some audio files as soon as they're available... Maybe some vids too.
The car is currently undergoing some construction. I'll update soon...
