There hasn't been any really good stuff going on here in over week. What happened guys? I know Joe's busy doing the under desk work for his job trying to get a "raise" ;).
I personally can't wait until we get a good WARM meet going!
How was everyones warm weekend? I changed the oil, sparks, battery, and clamps on the 2. Only got belts, gear oil, and adjust the fuel left.
News from me :
-I got my JDM sidemarkers but haven`t installed.
-JDM Doorsills is on the way ( it`s been 2 weeks, i dunno what happened with KARacing, I can`t even track the number, anyone knows how to? its shipped by Air )
-MeganRacing strutbars 4 pieces also on the way
Hate the weather coz its still gonna snow on Friday, can`t wait for the meets.
It`s been really slow in here :(

It's funny. I was in school and was dropping off a resume in one of the offices, and posted all over the place was one of those Apple "rep" jobs. I thought of you immediately.

Whats new?
Hmmmm.... Well, the Service Writing job at Subaru is working out pretty good... better than parts anyway.
The front end of my car is still pretty messed up :(
But, needless to say, I MUST get that fixed before any meets come along....
And... I am currently exploreing some new alliances with might prove to be... well, let's just say...fun & exciting. ;)
Aside from that.... eagerly anticipating this year's autox season...
What else... I dunno... I just watched "Life Aquatic" the other night, not quite as good as I was expecting.
That is all for now.

:furious:
I have been busy at work, and yes it's been dead in here.
What else... I dunno... I just watched "Life Aquatic" the other night, not quite as good as I was expecting.
That movie is weird as hell.
i cleaned my car yesterday :o)
Yeah I need to really do that. I haven't washed my car since early October. :hide:
News from me: my interior is in complete disarray. My trunk is still stripped, and most of my forward interior panels are out and being wrapped in CF as we speak. When we get a nice warm weekend I'll work on swapping the gray panels with the '03 black.

When you mix electricity, heat, and myself together.....the results are far from positive.
Heh, it's not a big deal. I couldn't weld an airtight seal on a fuel line. Atleast it wouldn't stand up to 50 psi....

I know my car club is doing a few shows in April. I dunno if I want to enter the 2 or not because the front end is chipped a bit. The car still looks great tho. I gotta finish a few things.
This weekend: Adjusting my fuel pressure regulator in the 2 (I'm running 10psi too high of fuel pressure which is killing power. I didn't think 237whp was that bad either, but I'll gladly accept more!)
Next weekend: Installing the POS pioneer deck I have laying around into the 2 so I can have some music. Installing new T-Top guides to hopefully fix my small leaks. Then cruising!
