I think that 11 was on harvey and 23rd. One of them.

Also seen a 08 white wrx wagon, mexico plates. He was going east on frontage towards 23rd street. So I chased him down, under the underpass and back towards ware road. It looked like he had exterior mods. Got a wave out of him.

**** it. Figured id start out with a fresh one.
Or check out other sites like clubwrx and my subie or 25rs.

I seen another subie yesterday on Col. Rowe near expressway overpass. 08 black wrx sedan.

But I get the feeling I'm talking to myself as weeks go by without anything.

spotting them isn't exactly exiting...rare down here though...I still haven't seen much.
I saw a SE STi pass by yesterday night...it really caught my eye cuz eventhough it was bone stock, it was washed and sooo deep black it almost looked like light was being sucked into its paint! it was so weird...even the shadow seemed to dissappear...
on another note, I installed hella supertones into my budies wrx yesterday night. went well, super easy...especially with the subimods harness and mount.

If I don't sell mine or trade it in for another one I found, then I'm going to install the hellas as well. There's a lot of drivers who just aren't paying attention. I'd love for a train horn but that's overkill.

And hopefully today or early next week my stuff comes in for my car. My wife bought some "things" for it, but won't tell me.
Also going to see what tires I can find for my spare rims today.

I just pm'ed you my email address so you can send pics and price of the wheels.

You bought the cockpit and wheel? Sweeeetttt!!

I'm still waiting to hear on whether or not Bert Ogden can get a 07 wrb forester xt sports from Austin and bring it down here so I can buy it. If not I'm looking to sell my car and buy a different subie that's been modded a little bit.

Plus it'd be nice to kill one of my payments to buy a house.

It is hard to explain exactly but police presence in the area north of edinburg is almost non-existent as long as you dont go more than 30 miles north and run into border patrol. I don't know about you, but no police and country roads is a recipe for goodness in my book. Hope you enjoy the valley and I hope in no way does your experience with the gulf coast and valley mar your impression of the great state of Texas.
I cruised near delta lake and a bunch of them back roads in my impreza and forester this weekend. What a blast!

Where were these pics taken?

And if I may, how much did that cost?

I've got the cusco and one of the rally ones, plus the 534hp 2011 sti, a custom painted sedona red pearl 22b sti, and yeah about every other one too. To bad they don't have a Colin McRae or team orange livery. Have you beaten the Seb Loeb challenege yet?

I got the text with the gamer chair. That's so badass.

I almost got in another wreck today with the company truck. Another corolla s wasn't paying attention and merged into my lane. He was to busy bull****ting with his son/passeneger that he was half in my lane. But I managed to slow down and sort of curb the truck in order to prevent hitting them. I rolled up and the kid looked like he may have done the bull****ting in his pants. The dumbass driver had a death grip on the wheel and just sort of shyly waved.
This just weeks after a silverado dented my front end on my car and I had a corolla s ( a cop or someone with a badge) almost rearend me because he was tailgating and there was a schoolbus stopped ahead of me. I officially hate all corollas and vws, and silverados. They all are worthless drivers. All of them, including your grandma if she has one.

Any ideas of where to get decent tires I can put on my stockers?
Any good places in the valley do alignments for awds or can I just take it to any of them?

Any ideas of good places that does interior and exterior detailing, or should I save my money and buy the stuff and do it myself?

Had a few guys interested in buying my car and just wanted to make the sale go smooth. And if it doesn't sell anytime soon, at least id have new rubber and a clean car.

Well thanks to Aluma, I have nice rims and decent tread.

Hopefully get them mounted and aligned tomorrow.

Some quick photos with the phone. not the best quality.

That alignment was way overdue. The car isnt perfect, but it rides a bit smoother and and getting better gas mileage.
