Tuning and Troubles

BBKG79 · 12-27-2007, 08:41 AM

Hello, Howdy, Hola, What's Cooking, What's Popping, What's the Dilly?

Like most of you, I have an extensive list of parts that I want/need for my precious. Welcome to my Genesis!

------------------------BACKGROUND-------------------------

MY2005 World Rally Blue Subaru Impreza WRX STI was purchased in August of 2006. Yes it was used, and yes I got lucky, thank GOD. She runs and has been running perfect. For my cars 1st year anniversary I was blessed with Stage 2

. I already had a catback installed so my lovely lady surprised me with an AP2 and a Downpipe. (Thank you baby)

I can't believe sometimes how my lady is so supportive of me, my car, and autocross. We've been together for 7 going on 8 years and in that time I have never ever given her a Christmas list, or even expressed what I wanted. Because of the unavoidable obsession with our cars I finally gave in this year. Now the list I gave her was a fraction of the long-term list. It was a list compiled of parts to get me ready for next season’s autocross. I had no clue for months what she was up to. I seriously didn't expect her to get much or ish, maybe one or two things and the rest to be stuff she felt I should have other than car parts. She got all but maybe four things

.

*** BY NO MEANS AM I BRAGGING! REPEAT, BY NO MEANS AM I BRAGGING!

I HAVE NEVER HAD A CHRISTMAS LIKE THIS OR BEEN GIVEN GIFTS LIKE THIS BEFORE, EVER!

IF YOUR CHRISTMAS WAS DOODOO, I CAN RELATE TO THAT, A MILLION FOLD

IT’S BEEN A LONG TIME COMING! ***

------------------------CHRISTMAS LIST ------------------------
