It's funny you should mention promoting the site. I was going to ask if there is some sort of sticker available? It could help fund the site, too....

My friend runs the local tri-state RX-8 club and has these available:

The RX-8 Tri State Club :: Membership :: Decals

I would love to have a small sticker in the small window at the rear of my car. If we don't already have one, I could find out where he got them from. He is a graphic designer so maybe he could help out on that? Let me know what you think....

As for 18's, I'm staying clear of those because I figure they'll screw the ride up too much....

As for why peeps shy away from 18's on the "classic" scooby , is weight ,rubbing issues with wheel arches and prolly cost of tires !.

Wow - those are beautiful! I've got lots of time before I even consider putting new rims on mine but always on the lookout...I really want a nice pair of wheels that set off the red of the car....

I just found this and wasn't sure if someone wanted to jump on it! I have no idea what the deal is but it's being sold as new....

eBay Motors: 2008 Subaru Impreza WRX SPT Cat-Back Exhaust System NEW (item 160244452745 end time Jun-01-08 22:06:25 PDT)

I have a 4-door so it's no good to me!

Any idea as to when this offer will end? I'm considering on buying it but I need to know when the offer will end. Otherwise I'm going to have to reach into my credit cards and pay it by the end of july.

As far as I'm aware, the exhaust is back up to full price ($880):

https://www.subarugenuineparts.com/i...Path=33_99_111

I think it was a very short period for the low price, that's why this ebay auction seemed reasonable. I'd call around and see if anyone is still taking orders, otherwise I'd ask the Ebay seller some questions....just my $0.02!

I called the dealership earlier today and they told me 427 for the exhaust. So, I'm probably gonna order it tomorrow. Hopefully it still is the same price.

Good deal - I'd definitely jump on that - it's still half price! I'm still waiting for mine but it'll be worth it. Apparently there's a delay in getting them shipped to my dealer because of a flange issue (I've read about it on other threads). I figure the longer I wait for it, the more I'll appreciate it!!

Apparently Subaru Genuine Parts is selling them for 305 still. However the item is out of stock so there is a waiting list for it. Dealer also has a waiting list so I guess I'll be waiting for the website.

Hehe, Mr. Glass half full. I myself am trying to be optimistic because it is such a great price but 2 months of waiting is starting to wear thin.I almost ordered a different exhaust last night but decided to wait for a few more weeks(the SPT are suppose to ship mid June).
