I'd like to meet Roy if he comes up here for an Ed Tune. My house can be home-base instead of muska's...

. J/K I know that Volks aren't for everyone. Have you checked out the Advan RZ's? They are supposed to come in GTR Face with a very high offset so you can be in the "proper fitment" and "GTR Face" club at the same time

!

Volks<Advans in my book.

Those RZ's are sick. Is eXstasy still selling his? I gotta' go look.

Yeah I gona go up there to get the tune and meet up with Mr 11.7 Sean (downsti) Our car pretty much look the same haha. I will let you 2 know when Im going up there love to see you and fanatic cars too.

We got a few aggresive fittment ppl going up there for JDM theory at the 24th which is 2 days from now. What I heard was a pretty big meet for all kind of JDM rides and is free to get in. So you 2 should join up. It is at Norcal anyway. Here is the thread. Ask grippy monkey or downsti to meet up.

You will see ALOT of the Cali aggressive there. I think all the Mach3 cars will be there too but I wront able to make it. I be up there at June hopefully for the tune.

Like work vsxx 10s. prodrive 10.5. all kind of crazy fitments. So if you want crazy aggressive stuff go meet up with henry at Mach3. Than you can fit anything you want on your STi.

Ask garage spec. They say they can get them. I mean the RZ and they dont have copy rotas for them yet and I doubt they will make copies of RZ.

Thanks man. I saw Dave's and had to have one. BTW? How did everything work out with the rear of your car? Losing that Mature piece was tragic.

The good guys at Garagespec contacted me with a solution. Sunday when RAPTR comes over we can tear in to it and get her up and honking right. I think I assumed bolting on race-car parts would be simpler than it was.

It'll get sorted. Its just that its my DD so an element of panic sets in when I start removing wiring and such with my only guide being in japanese.

I got rear ended again today (see my thread) and this time my exhaust is gone but i will have a new exhaust on order and the diffuser is already on order so the car is going to have a brand new look.
