    Cool let us know...

    I know u have a crazy sick turbo VW, well I went to test drive the new GTI today... I loved it, I should of left the prius at the VW dealership...LOL Wonder if the GTD will be coming to the states?

    Also I went to my parents house tonight to help clean the storage garage and I found these. forge SSR type c off my Subaru i had way back in the day... they are 5x100:rockon: forgot all about these.

    I don't really like this color, so I'm going to have them repainted, what color should I go with? they are 17x7.5 +45 around 13lbs I think...

    Nice car sc24vr6. Is that a drop on coilovers ? Looks like 3.5" drop.


    Also do you use that a a daily driver ? I heard Cali is anal about tinting the front windows.
