wow, so I will finally be spending a weekend at home... here's the plan:
1. clear the headlamps (if I have an orange bulb w/o the orange plastic will I still get a ticket?)
2. order amp so I can finally install my system (I have everything BUT the damn amp)
3. get my windows tinted. (edit: earliest appointment is next friday so can't get them done until then)
4. have a bbq, play some poker, go to the gym, play counter-strike.. and PARTY MY LITTLE TAIL OFF!
the wrx pedal kit is a lengthy install... might hold off till next weekend to do that.
next weeks plans: install the system!!! (tweeters, mids, and 2 10's)

Your #4 on your "to do list" seems very VERY fun. Wish I could get some time off and do that
Have a good one!

now wheels... rota torques 17? oz superleggera 17? gun metal or silver, to go with crystal grey car?

For what's it worth the Rota Torques are 18.2 lbs. The Superleggeras are 15.9 lbs. But you could get 17 Rota Sub Zeros @ 17.3 lbs. Check the Royal Steel Grey or Royal Silver or Royal Gunmetal (painted center/polished lip!) great look. @ www.subydude.com

I've gone through 200km and 1/4 of the gas tank. Is that considered a lot of fuel used for that amount of km?
shoot i just filled my tank up on monday and now its quarter tank and its thursday. dang.
by the way, does intake and exhaust help a little on the gas mileage?

thanks... the whole process took about 3 hours for each late. it was the first real mod i've ever done though, and I had to do it by myself so it took even longer. baking the light wasn't bad at all, it was getting the light off the car that I had the most trouble with. Let me know when youre going to do it and Ill help out if u have questions

damn suba, it looks tight. i like the way ur car is looking with the rack too. nice job. i wasn't planning on clearing my headlights but after seeing your car.... if i mess it up im blaming it on you. hahah j/k.
o yea, has anybody figured out what the damn whistling sound is coming from? im driving to work today 40 mph, with some wind and the whistling wouldn't stop. It happens at 80+ with no wind too. It annoys the hell out of me.
