I've seen my old 93 legacy get a huge STi scoop. DO NOT DO THIS!!!! you should get the 02-03 WRX scoop. they look sweet, and are big enough. NASIOC should have a few. that's where I got my last two from.

Example:

Of course this is all personal taste. Go with what YOU like.

I like the smaller one a whole lot better. The one on the red car looks great. The problem with these cars is that the styling is so different from newer Subarus that just about any of the body parts look out of place

I think the straighter, more angular lines on that scoop would work well w/ the straighter lines of our older cars.

Here's mine. Not the best picture of the scoop, but you get the idea. My scoop is from a 2.5RS (pretty much the same as the newer WRX scoop).

That said, my friend took his scoop off of his 05 STi and we placed it on my car. It looked ridiculous. Although, it MIGHT have looked a little better if it were painted to match (not WRB).

Haha thanks. To be honest, she has a number of blemishes, but I suppose that's to be expected of a 18 year old car.

I'm using a Prodrive P1 suspension setup for a GC8. All I know is that they have AGX struts and some sort of Prodrive springs and tophats.
