Rumbles: Exterior Mods
I’ve been thinking about my aesthetics lately and the gearhead in me wants to focus solely on performance mods, but the photographer in me wants more exterior mods for the photos. After shooting Sara’s WRX with her new mods, a couple of weeks ago, it got me thinking about my own exterior mod plans. View…

Rumbles: Bugeye on a Budget
This is going to be a new series of low-cost mods I am going to be doing to my 2003 WRX. The criteria for this series are mods that cost under $50; ideally under $50 shipped. I want to do a “Bugeye on a Budget” mod at least once or twice a month and I…

Capturing Blow-By: AOS v Catch Cans
I thought I would hash out my reasons for my next big mod, keeping oil vapors out of my intake via either an AOS (air/oil separator) or a catch can setup. And really the only difference between the two is what you do with the captured oil. AOS drains the blow-by back into the engine…

Steering Feels (Feedback)
What makes for good steering feels (or feedback)? I have been chasing this question for some time now. Maybe even before I realized I was doing so. Obviously at some point this becomes more of a personal preference answer and thus an experiment in trial and error. More mods? I’m in! 😀 A quick google…
