Get your Subaru Fix! | Subie Freaks

I recently got a chance to get some answers out of Jonathan (chaso311clarity from NASIOC) about his ride. Sweet answers, sweet modifications, sweet car. (Minor editing was done by me)

When did you purchase the ride? I bought my car back in July of 06

What were you trying to achieve with your car (i.e. show car, track or auto x car, general purpose, all-around use)? At first i wanted to go crazy with it, 6 cylinder swap etc etc… My goals/ideals have kinda changed since then. I guess you could say its an all around car. I drive it every day, i take it to the track, i show it off, hell i even take it off road sometimes.

(*Editor’s Note* Wow! I don’t think I was ready, haha! Very nice.)

I think thats it, I may have missed one or 2 things.

The car made 300 whp and 345 Ftlbs on the verocious dynojet.

Favorite performance mod you’ve done? The suspension is incredible. The car can pretty much take any turns i throw at it.

Favorite appearance mod you’ve done? Thats a tie between the Authentic V-limited lip and the JDM fogs.

Future mods? I hope to get some wheels on the car soon, maybe 18×9 or 9.5 “aggressive fitment” lol. I also plan on putting some new rotors/pads on the car but i guess thats just maintenance. I also would like to get some proper seats in the car.
