Hahaha sorry wade I just dont get the yahoo thing, I am gonna go there and try to figure it out. I do still need to install my uppipe I have all the gaskets now. (Downpipe to turbo and uppipe to turbo. I need to find a bolt that will go in the hole in the up pipe where the egr sensor goes.

My trunk lid looks good the car is now exactly the way I wanted it when I bought it WINGLESS.

Biggs, I know what you mean about the wheels, I have been thinking about getting the rota wheels but it really isnt what I want. I think Im just gonna start saving up little extra cash and get the racing harts I want.

That's my friend Chris, really cool guy. He works at Dominos and bought the car after coming back from deployment in Egypt. It's stock except for tint.

So what's the status on the group tint thing? Do we know pricing yet?

Now that the weather is nice, we should plan a drive of some sorts. Maybe Mt. Ashland Ski Rd.? We could even fit in Old Siskiyou as a warm-up

It's kinda neat seeing the bird's eye view of these roads- check em out.

I've finally committed to something. I'm going to get the Team Dynamics wheels in white and get them powdercoated gold. The Rotas I liked in gold were out of stock with Subydude.com and I wanted to go through Advantage anyway. He couldn't knock the price on the OZ wheels down so I'll just save a little money by going with the Team Dynamics.

Thanks for the help. I'm not big on the Tarmacs, plus I've already committed to the wheels with Advantage. They've worked hard for me so I don't really want to screw them.

Sometimes I feel too trusting in Ashland and forget that even in Ashland there are turd burglers that will pilfer your ****. At least they didn't walk off with your Cobb AP. I guess you'll just have to drive slow now...

I'm getting ready to post another thread in a minute about trading my STi wing/ trunk lid for a Platinum Silver Wingless trunk lid. Spread the word if anyone knows someone interested. I'd also be willing to buy a silver wingless trunk lid if someone is planning to upgrade to a carbon fiber replacement trunk lid.

**T0rque** · 05-24-2005 08:52 AM

I think there is a silver trunk lid on ebay for sale with no wing, could be wrong but I thought I saw one, I can be wrong.

Also group tint, I have been trying to contact him, will be calling him again today about it to at least get a preliminary price.

**T0rque** · 05-26-2005 09:20 AM

Good news guys, I got ahold of Doug and he is doing up a group rate for us, I will call him back tomorrow and get the prices. This thread has really died whats the deal

**the_black_one** · 05-26-2005 09:31 AM

I don't think I'll have the $$ for tint until next month sometime- I'm pretty broke right now, as is any other student living on the fin. aid check they got at the beginning of the term.

So go ahead and get it if you guys are ready, I can pay full price later somewhere. I wish I had the money now, cause I'd do it in an instant with this weather...

I think I need to find a job that pays a little more... I know I'll be working more in the summer, and I'd like to get the most of my time. After next year I'll have a bachelor's in physics, so that should get me a decent paying job.

yea physics is pretty interesting. i have a friend that is getting his phd in physics at vanderbuilt. needless to say he will have a sweet job after graduation.

**the_black_one** · 05-26-2005 09:45 AM

I could go straight into a masters or phd program if I like, but I think that's somethin' I'd like to do later down the line (at least after a couple years in the workplace). I think the scholarship I have for grad school lets me take a couple years off- i hope it does at least.

...checkin' the new posts, I assume?
