Might even re- paint it

Must paint lime green or pink.

Just a fresh silver re-spray.

Maybe a slightly different shade and throw in some metal flak so it sparkles, erm sthparkles.

wrxedya · 12-15-2009, 01:32 PM

does anyone have stock sturt/spring/tophat assemblies for a wrx........

andrew

Scooby921 · 12-15-2009, 02:26 PM

I know you don't want to spend money on 'em, but I picked up a set from Millennium for $160 total. They were still assembled and dropped right in. See if Frank will just straight up trade you for your current high mileage STi struts and old, nasty s-techs

wrxedya · 12-15-2009, 03:42 PM

Called them today they said $100 a corner.....I laughed inside

Andrew

Scooby921 · 12-15-2009, 03:48 PM

$100 a corner for WRX struts and springs? Did you tell them you know someone bought WRX strut assemblies from them for $40 a corner? Hell, I bought STi struts w/ STi pinks for $450. They are out of their damn minds.

mkkawamo · 12-15-2009, 03:48 PM

Where we meeting today? I want food. Try BWs again?

Scooby921 · 12-15-2009, 04:52 PM

I don't know what we're doing this week. I have soccer this evening again and I didn't wash anything last week. I'm probably just going home to do some last-minute laundry before the game.

We are doing b-dubs next week for sure.

Hondaslayer · 12-15-2009, 05:33 PM

I'm out,

Drove the Miata today, managed to fit a radiator on the package tray behind the seat

Somehow I have to drive this silly little thing home now.

Jeremy told me what happened with your trans

.

You really need to stop beating the hell out of that thing. The build motor, huge turbo, crazy power, and 6000rpm clutch dumps are killing it

.

I'd really like to know how a stock car breaks the output shaft in the stock trans.

Hondaslayer · 12-21-2009, 10:55 AM

Never seen Andy drive, have you?

Redline shifts every time (his redline is still set at 4,250 rpm, right?)

Last I saw it was set at 3500.. trying to conserve gas; since it was a DD!

Hondaslayer · 12-21-2009, 06:05 PM

Speaking of redline.

Swapped the crystal to a 4.44 mhz unit in the Miata, that thing just sounds silly at 8000 rpm

wrxedya · 12-22-2009, 11:25 AM

soooooo....where we meeting tonight.....

andrew

Scooby921 · 12-22-2009, 11:39 AM

Safir · 12-22-2009, 03:18 PM

wrxedya · 12-22-2009, 03:43 PM
