Well we are going to be at TiC next weekend so I was going to pick some up then but didn't want to drive that far with a broken one although it would probably be ok. It most likely has been broken since I bought it but it looked fine until it was on the lift today and it popped out of the little boot.

jk, my brother had too much time on his hands....

theasianeffect · 03-19-2011, 10:36 AM

People would have loved it in the 80's

Chiguy_2002 · 03-19-2011, 12:59 PM

At Mr Burger

Chiguy_2002 · 03-19-2011, 05:50 PM

We were discussing having the meet next time at

US131 Motorsports Park
1249 12th Street
Martin, MI 49070

Saturday, April 2 at the Test & Tune from 12 Noon to 6.00p

We can possibly meet somewhere first and drive there in a convoy, or just meet there. Open to suggestions on that. I think it will be something different and a nice change, and a few will be running with their new setups there, so why not have a meet there?

Looking to get my windows tinted through first choice window tint on 28th st and byron, has any of you guys got their windows done through these guys before?

NismoGirl2001 · 03-22-2011, 03:24 PM

Awesome, its snowing/sleeting. Welcome back winter.

sammyk · 03-23-2011, 11:40 AM

I send all of our cars to Tint Factory, they do great job and their price is good also. Hope this helps

Just purchased a 2011 Kawasaki Ninja 250R. Going to be saving some gas this summer! The girly wants it after a year or so and that will give me a chance to upgrade to a wee bit faster bike. Keeping the 08 2.5i for quite some time. Might have a suspension project coming up on it to make it an auto-x toy.

Any one have a job or know of a job going in GR, Muskegon area? I'll do anything right now to make ends meet.

I have some pretty big medical bills to take care of and looks like there will be more coming after my wife totaled the car last week.

SubieWReX · 03-28-2011, 05:02 PM

What's your employment background?

Feel free to pm me. I can maybe give you some leads.

Auto_X88 · 03-28-2011, 06:41 PM

OK, auto-x slut project is under way on the 2.5i. Even though I don't know enough about the mechanics of brakes to swap from a rear drum to rear disc. I've got some 08 wrx aftermarket stuff priced out (discs and pads). I think all I need is calipers/backing plate? Please correct me if I'm wrong!

Also looking at Tein basic damper kit for 08-10 wrx.

Its a start at the very least.

White out · 03-28-2011, 06:44 PM

Sounds like fun!

Some suspension/brake work should make the car much more enjoyable.

Nick
