I think sometime in June would be the earliest, but I doubt it. The latest will be in August before the New England meet. I plan on doing a few other things beside the body for the meet. So it will take a little longer than it should.

I have a set of USDM headlights for sale. If anyone wants them PM me with an offer.

A quick little update!

Most of you know my Legacy sat for a few months because it ran into some bad luck last winter (x gf). The tail lights wouldn't work, it needed 4 new tires and alignment bad. So here is what's going on:

Just got

Tail lights fixed
4 new Cooper all season tires
4 newer rims off a 02 GT went on FINALY

In the works

Custom intake
Koyo radiator (if mine needs to be replaced)
New radio
HIDs
KYB GR2 (struts to go with my H&R springs)
Borla header
Cusco RSB with Perrin endlinks

Wiscon_Mark
10-15-2005, 02:14 PM
Tail lights fixed

Did Hell freeze over? :lol:

2DL is going to need some new material it seems :D

What does the custom intake entail? Or are you going to be super secretive? ;)

What kind of Radio?

Reason
10-16-2005, 04:19 AM
I want the same Panasonic flip screen but the latest model. Nothing secret about the intake, I need to still work out some issues.

No, I was more worried about paying the car off (which I did). I also came across alot of good deals on parts (which I couldn't pass up). I have the fender, and it's primed I just need to put it on (easier said than done). I'm still looking for a place to do the bodywork. Now since I came across ECS I rather have a WRX swap than a nice looking car.

You could always ship me over for a 2 or 3 week holiday and have me sort your bodywork out, all you need is a workshop and some tools/products etc and I'll be in heaven... Oh and a Hooters and/or IHOP close by ;)

Well that could work :) hell I even started to wonder what would fit in my case, though compressor, sanders etc would be a little too big n heavy :p

I took a few minutes before work to take 2 sound clips with the new Borla I got from Gator GT. It's not the best sounding clip, you can hear the heat shields from my header rattling like a bitch. Here they are anyway.

Short ram intake, Stromung mid-pipe and Borla cat-back.
