Picked up a barely used Blue 2002 WRX Wagon a few weeks ago. Pics to follow. Looking for local tuners as I am about to add up pipe and downpipe. Car came with a CBExhaust, suspension and rims. I have restored the headlights and tinted the fog lights so far. Not new to imports but new to Subarus.

Is the the Howard Franklin bridge in the first picture? I'm originally from Clearwater, so I know that area pretty well.

Let me ask around I know a few people in that area that might be able to help you...

That is the Howard Franklin bridge in the background. Picture was taken near Ben T Davis beach on the causeway. Thanks!
I use to draaaa...have spirited driving on Cortney Campbell Causeway back in the 80's and at Sunshine Speedway back when it was still around.

p.s. Still waiting to hear back from a buddy that does Subaru's in Lakeland. It's a bit of a drive, but at the moment that's all I have.



I live in Ohio now. Would be a heck of a long drive for me, but thanks.

Anyone in the Tampa bay area have a Tactrix cable? I want to flash the latest revision of the ECM to try and get rid of what I think are phantom misfire codes. Timing has been checked, valve clearances should be correct as they were just checked and replaced.

Little update about the car. I had a cam gear break about a month ago. Threw the belt, bent valves. Not fun and my great deal of a car turned into a just an ok deal after the cost of repairs.

Motor was happy but transmission wasn't. It decided to grenade on Dec. 19th. Should have the car back today. I said to hell with it and went on vacation. Just got the transmission two weekends ago and they started on the car last Friday. This car hates me. :)
