I was there from fall 2008 till i graduated in spring 09. You must have gone to the EP campus. I was at the Brooklyn Park

Just got a '03 sedan. Just wish it was the 6mt though but hey its a heck of a lot better than my '03 Mazda 6S. I've got a lot of plans but I'll see what I can do on a full time student / part time worker budget haha

I'd love to make it out there but that is the weekend that I'm going out to Madison for Mifflin. But I am in on any others that happen later! Maybe one not so early! It'd be a long drive from St. Cloud to make to to a 6:30 AM meet.

Hopefully I'll get some mods done by then. I'd feel kind of dorky showing up to a meet in a bone stock automatic sedan!

Pics of the ride

Here are a couple of pics of the ride after I got it and have changed it a little bit. I stopped feeling the spoiler and took it off recently and put on the G wing.

Thanks... it looks nice and clean now. I put some Ichiba spacers on yesterday. 20mm in the front and 25mm in the back. Its sitting pretty flush. I post some recent pics of how the car looks. I put on some vinyl taillight covers and it was a bitch. It didnt come out right; I took them off. Second failed attempt. I am gonna try to smoke the headlights by using the oven technique.

I too tried "BLUEBAT" overlays and couldn't get them to fit, even with a heat gun. Kept them on for week or so to see how i would like them....turned out I liked them, so I took them off and had them painted...

here they are on my '06 before i sold it...

The pic with the R33 wing is the most recent. Since then I tinted my headlights, changed the spoiler, put on the spacers. The taillights look badass. Dd you take them to a shop. Ive been debating dropping the ride but the roads up here suck. Seems like it wouldnt be worth it. I know it would look gud but going into the city everyday has discouraged me with all the bumps and potholes.

define "up here"?? where you live @??

And yes, I had a shop do them. I masked them off and took them to a shop in Hasings, MN.

Now that the crews are finally getting out repairing the potholes its not bad at all. For a daily driver, there are plenty of springs that have the same comfort and feel as OEM springs.
