Latest, installed new pads (Endless) on all four.
Ordering new tires, but won't be able to enjoy them until August. Gotta do that Navy thing...

Was talking to a Japanese guy the other day...he actually waited outside the store I was in for almost an hour to meet the owner of my car.
Said the way I am set up I should be at 280hp at the flywheel. Nice considering stock is 220. He recommended cams, injectors and a GT-R fuel pump and that would bump me to 320.
Car runs great right now, but need to keep on top of oil changes, oil is pretty much garbage after only 2,000 kilometers.
Engine is at 140,000 kilometers. Lots of blow by. Need to start saving for a spare/rebuild motor.
Or if someone offers the right price....I might go for one of these

Nothing new to report other than my buddy has infected me with the "Bugeye Bug" he just picked up an 02 STi Prodrive edition...I hate him.
A friend just offered to sell me an STi Wagon for $10k....Silver Bugeye, bone stock...unfortunately I am trying to be debt free, so I had to pass on it.
Oh, did get to play with my new BF Goodrich gForce tires....NICE.

for a stock turbo she does good.
the frount mount, power FC and boost controller opened her up quite a bit.
Just need to add a stainless manifold and downpipe to complete the exhuast.
Other than that need to lower her a bit to get the 18's tucked in.

hopefully.
the ship I am on is inport for a bit and I should be able to make it this year. Was a bit disappointed last year as the shows have degraded (IMO) since 2003 (the last one I went too before I transferred to California).
What days you looking at going?
