have fun with it man...did you get rid of the Subaru?

Nice man. Looking forward to seeing the car down here in January.

Half of us have to get a new bumper or repaint our existing bumpers. Im included on the needing to repaint the bumper. You may not be able to tell from the pictures but I see it everyday...

If there were more options I would say buy another car to use as a DD while you build up the motor on the wagon. Then crank up the boost.

ok so I need to stick to 40mm offset or give or take a few mm, like 37-42 or so and keep the 5x108 bolt pattern which cannot be any different? and keep it the same width, 7in. correct ? Im looking at like edgeracing.com and the like. haven't looked round here in the FOR SALEs yet. can't get adapters $$ tight already !

You can get 17x8 or 18x8 but you just have to be careful with the tires you select. Make sure you read a little bit on here. People have posted more info than you can imagine.

ok stock offset is around 40mm. The BOLT pattern is 5x108 (5x4.25in). You would be looking at getting some adapters to make those wheels fit.

17x7 will fit with the correct tires. Stock on the R (Volans are 17x7) are 205/45/17 tires. Those will fit.

How destroyed is the old one? If it's just cracked in half with no major chunks gone I might be able to make a mold from it. Interested in selling it?

Lets just say the large piece of the earth that was in the highway took a chunk out of his oil pan also. I dont think there was much left to saw about the lip.

Gatti Im driving up to VA to steal your wheels. All of them. Every last set (since you have like 10). But all I really want are those BBS...but the wagons look hot as always.

Do you have a straight on shot because your grille is in sweet shape.

I can try to dig up some old photos. That was taken about 9 months ago and over the summer I painted the grill black...so I wont be able to just take a photo. Ill post a couple more that my be helpful, I have higher res ready to email if you want them also.

If someone still has February's south Florida meet hosted somewhere then there should be a lot of good high res shots in there. I just cleaned out my computer a couple weeks ago...so I dont have all the pictures anymore.

Heres one more I dug up:

it says right on the email flyer that its 70 hp and 80 ftlbs... (If I Recall Correctly)

Estimated. They usually inflate those numbers and then round up. It has potential after a few more things with the kit. Its not a horrible price for that setup though. I think if you bought everything seperately from IPD it would come out to be about $3300. Definately ways to get that cheaper but if you have the cash, its a good way to at least get a start on a car.

drunk and lost my wallet...whats better than that.

B)-->

The only private schools around my house were religious. I went to one for 2 years and absolutely hated it. There are so much better things to learn about in todays world than religion IMO. I can say that the public education, at least in my town, was just as good (if not better) as the private education. Actually, I felt that because the private school tried to cut costs in some areas, they would go through teachers more frequently. Many of those teachers were fresh out of school and didnt have a very good understanding of how to get through to high schoolers. At a public school the teachers generally have an easier time staying there longer and have a good system to teach to the students.

I guess this goes both ways, but I tend to see it more at the public school I attended.

That my friends is why you should go to a public school.

Looking at that closer, all it is is a city light in green. Follow the city light write up by Pat in the sticky at the top and you should be all set. Of course you would be using an LED but it only changes the whole process slightly. It should look good when all is said and done.

Heres a good place to get LEDS:

you do realize that these lights would be completely illegal. Just letting you know that you can end up with a hefty fine for blue lights on the exterior of the car. Blue is reserved for police. Thats why most underglow kits are green. Of course I could be wrong with all this. Im 90% sure that blue is illegal. If you are just doing this for show course its fine but if you are going to cruise down the road with these on you run the risk of getting pulled over and the potential for "impersonating a police officer". Trust me, I know someone that got that down here in FL.

Yeah, I thought of that .. but it doesn't do anything. I had a fuse go out once on my 240 that fried the dimmer switch, and I had the same exact problem. Once I replaced it, everything was fine. I think I'm going to try and replace this one and see if that's it. Any idea on how I could test the one I have to see if it works properly?

The switch? Hook up a voltometer (dunno how to spell it) to see if its getting 12v like it should. That would be my guess on how to test it. Well I guess that would test the lines before it. Electricity is not really my thing.

Some zip ties and she'll be good as new man. Glad everyone is ok. Ive had the same luck as you. Two rear-end collisions and Ill admit one was definately my fault but going 50+ in a Dakota quadcab when a Honda locks their tires right in front of you is no fun. Ill just have to say, she had some issues opening what was left of her trunk after that. Good luck with everything man.

Not this year, sorry. As a college student, these gas prices seem to be on the right track now. If only tuition would go down as well....

LOL desert. Looks like he was out in Coventry near Johnson's Pond area. Whatever road thats on 401 i think.

Rhode Island is about the size of a county in Arkansas. It makes it really easy to go all over the state.

Disappointed I couldnt make it. Next time you get out to the track Eric just give me a heads up on here. I try to get down there every once in a while.

Helmet for 13.9 or less. I was just there on Wed. and a Ford GT ran, they made the guy wear a helmet and kicked the passenger out. The guy didnt know how to drive the car and ran a 14 something.

I was also wearing shorts but bring a pair of pants just in case.

Plus I believe Joseph on here can hook you up if you PM him.

Most likely wont be able to make it to this one. Gotta work all weekend. I dont like to take time off, since I may never get the hours back. Ill be at the track on Wednesday if any locals want to swing by.

Btw, Eric what time do you plan on starting everything on Saturday. I can go for a little while if there are gonna be people there in the morning. Gotta work in Daytona at 5 pm though.
