[Rich]

Thanks for the welcome. Here's some vids from the rally. We had 2 cameras on the car that day. The first one is the in car on a DIY camera mount I made. The co-driver is my bro-in law Jay. He's been racing for about 10 years and gets exited when on course. The second is from the roof mount but is lacking audio, sorry. The roof mount one was the most horrible run EVER!!! Including a spin out half way through.
Enjoy.

Nice man, very pretty car. havent checked the videos out yet, but I will. A couple of us Autocross up here with sccnh.org. It is at NHMS, formerly NHIS. I live about ten minutes from there, so in any case that you want to come check it out, you have a place to stay! I am originally from Torrington, CT. Currently have family there, waterbury, east granby, and windsor. Also other places I cant remember off the top of my head! Anyways, welcome and gorgeous car! I wish I had gotten the same thing. The girl drives an Aspen WRX so at least I get to admire the color.

I may take you up on this sometime.:D

Thanks for the responses everyone. There's nothing better than a good site with great people. You guys got it spot on.

Iv'e been real busy lately and on a mod tear. Installed the summer wheels, front lip, RCE springs, and had some new autocross magnets made. Please excuse the "buy me now" stamp on the photo. (I don't plan on buying it)

beautiful car man

[GrassyKnoll]

that's teh hot secks. debating Cobb springs or RCEs right now. nice wheels too. i can't afford a new set of rims :(

[Rich]

Thanks for the kind words guys. I actually got the wheels cheap. $700 with brand new snow tires. I swapped the tires with the stockers and use these as my summers.
As far as the suspension goes, I plan on getting coilovers someday but the ones I want are about 3k. So the RCE's will do just fine for now.

[Murphy2012]

How are the RCE's? I am going to get them for my car. Just put on some Tokico D Specs. I hear the RCE's with my struts tear some **** up! Where did you get them? Or was it a while ago, cause RCE is waiting for their shipment to arrive of some new ones now!

[Rich]

Actually I got the RCE's used from a member who went to coil overs. They are awesome. First suspension mod I've done and I couldn't be happier. Ride quality is more stable and the drop is subtle but noticeable. Very good product.

Zach got a new haircut today. It was his idea, he wanted a shark fin.

[SteelWRX]
