Default WRX to Z06

Hey guys,

I was on the Subaru forums for quite a while, and now I just joined this forum to do alot of reading/learning.

Sold my 02 WRX with 300WHP owned it for six years and loved every minute of it. Just got bored with the AWD turbo 4 and got a Domestic V8; 2002 Z06. It has plenty of power for now.. but I know the mod bug will hit me soon enough

It has an aftermarket shiftknob, uprated valve springs, and MSD ignition. I think that is it, but had the MSD pointed out to me this morning, so could be some other little bits.

My plan for the Vette is to get comfortable with the RWD, then progress to intake/headers/tune. Dont have plans to go much further than that power wise, at least not for a while. I have been thinking about taking off the Z06 badging, and adding an Ipod adaptor.

-Nick

I believe the stock stereo has a thing for an ipod adapter / aux input. Check the manual. You also have the column lock bypass. :-)
