Hey guys. I signed up a few minutes ago due to very bad experiences with Nasioc and a friend said you guys are much nicer. My first 2 threads on Nasioc got flamed to all hell and i learned quickly that's not a very cool site.

Anyways my name is Michael and I have a Dark Gray 06 WRX. If anyone is wondering who that sexy as hell lady is in my Avatar, it's Natalie Portman in a nude photo shoot! Anyways when do you guys meet? Flat4RN meets at Inn and out but usually only 3-4 turn up. I want to go on a cruise with a big group of fellow Subby owners!

Welcome!

Unfortunately, during the winter everyone's meets are pretty sparse. We're over at Tamarack Junction every Thursday at 6pm. I haven't made it out the last few meets, but the last time I was out there were only 3 or 4 people there too. Rumor has it there should be a few more folks that than tonight though. However, we don't really "cruise" at all. We just BS in the parking lot if the weather's not too bad before and after grabbing a bite to eat at Sully's restaurant.

As far as NASIOC... you probably got caught up in OT there. Off Topic on NASIOC is really it's own website, and they're not friendly unless you lurk for a long while and learn the ins and outs of the place. SECCS can also be the same way, though we're not *quite* as harsh... but we don't take kindly to stuff like street racing and fanboism here either.

There probably won't be another Cruise-aru until Spring. But even with a month's notice, only 5 cars showed up.

You'll probably have better luck in the spring getting people to go... a winter cruise is a tough drive to get people excited about.

I was actually in Nooby chat as odd as that is! I would expect the least flaming there if anyone had any common sense or respect. Yea my post wasn't about street racing. It was about me getting bored and straight piping my STI axelback i swapped and my resonator.

I'm a recent owner of a modded SRT4 and S2000 also so I'm not a fanboi. I've been all over the place with my cars haha.

Anyways is it the Tamarak the the bottom of MT Rose highway and on South Virginia?

Welcome, Michael.

Hey Heather! It's Mike the guy you told "Call me or you're a pussy" LOL. What's up girl?

More or less. Here's the info: http://www.seccs.org/forums/showthread.php?t=1418

I'll be there tonight, so will Dean and Cory.

How late do you guys hang? I'm off work at 9 and work across the street.

No, no. I didn't quite call you a pussy. I told you to "not be a puss and call me". But Whats Up!

Haha oops i'm putting words in your mouth now ; (. Not much. Just started a job at Radioshack right there in Walmart shopping center near your meeting spot. I'm going back to school full time in fall! How's your man? I haven't seen you guys for a couple months since I left Galena Market.

We're usually wrapping up right around 8:30-9:00.

Welcome aboard.

And thanks for not being a Lakers fan (or, at least I assume you aren't).

Not together.

Aww ok. Well maybe i'll hit you guys up on my next day off. I know a couple really cool cruise routes that aren't that long and won't burn up our tanks much. Maybe i'll be inviting you guys next week sometime. I usually drive to Virginia city and back. That's a really fun route. Or fooling around on Rattle Snake Mt.

One of my favorite local drives is from Incline to V.C., down the truck route to Carson. Then from Carson back through to Incline on 50 and 28.

Heather what's your schedule like? I'm always down for a cruise. That route was more fun with my S2000 though ; (. I loved RWD flying up the mountain haha.

Natalie Portman did a nude photo shoot? Why wasn't I told.

I had to pull this up when I heard her name.

Bahah. Well I ganked the pic from some dudes avatar on my Clippers site a couple months ago. I think he said it was from a Maxim or something? So not a true nude unfortunately haha.


Btw for the poster above this that's hilarious. I never saw that SNL short. She looks hot with short hair but I prefer her long girl next door hair ; (. I'll still never forget how hot she was in the Star Wars movie.

I think I saw your video/sounds clips and flame fest when you posted your straight pipe...hahaha. I used to have a straight pipe, but I pussed out and got a nice quiet Invidia :rolleyes:

The shaving question made me LOL.

Hey man. Yea since the DP and UP are still stock and the DP has my 2 cats, the noise isn't loud at all. It's not even much louder than an SPT I think. Yea that was me. I posted a video and like on the 3rd response someone said "Your car sounds like shit, get a real exhaust". I guess the moderators didn't like my response because I got a 6 point deduction of some sort LOL. With the cats in my car it sounds just like any other WRX with a catback, unless you can pick up on the slightest changes in pitch not normally registered by the human ear.

I'll still never understand on forums why people can't keep it to simple opinions that aren't personal immature attacks. I'm a bigtime poster on sports forums and I rarely had those problems.

Welcome! Yea I think you might like it here better than flat4. Everybodies cars are going bye bye over there except a few so the meets are slow yes. haha. The SECCS meet is tonight.. right now.

Hey Austin!! What's up with Moose the last couple days? I hope he's ok. I've tried to reach him last 3 days but he was having problems I think. His Justy is badass. Other day I recorded him doing dumb crap in it. I laughed about as hard as I ever have when he tried to get it up a steep snow pile. All I heard was a loud "Crunch" lol. You gave him your struts and i'm just waiting to order "Saggy butt spacers" before we do install and he can give you the cash from me. Struts are definitely blown but I think the H&R's just sit real low and I need to raise the rear some. Dude wish I could come to the meet but at this new job I work till 9 every night. Maybe i'll put together a short cruise like I suggested earlier. From Incline or South Virginia blvd near Tamarack to Virginia city. We can all grab drinks at the old saloons or something.

Yea i think he's just trying to get ready for his move. He's pretty busy. But yea im totally down for a cruise. Just post when!

I thought he's moving in 90 days or so??? Ok man we will go. I think Heather said she likes the route too so if I can get at least 4-5 of us we can cruise. Btw I brought him the other day but once a week I barbeque for a small group of friends. If he comes next week or even if not you can always cruise by. We usually have a good chat, eat and watch a movie or play some Xbox 360, like Left 4 Dead.


Btw Gus he was telling me about your car. We randomly figured out I have a TR like yours. I noticed the black side mirrors and non Momo steering wheel and it hit me after 3 months owning it haha. Basically you have all the mods I want. The STI turbo and intercooler and stage 2 with coilovers. Are you Meth injected? He was saying that's a great mod and is reliable. If so I might do that before the stages. What gains should I expect from Meth injection?

yea i didnt realize mine was a tr for like a month. I heard he was leaving at the end of the month.ok cool man. ill stop by one of these days. no im not on meth. I probably wont be. Ive heard alot of sketchy things about it.

Aww too bad. He's a really nice guy. We had a blast other day. We pulled off my spoiler and plugged the holes than fucked around and played video games all night and I cooked for the friends lol. What bad have you heard about Meth injection? My neighbor Steve with a 680 horse Chevy Blazer SS runs Meth. You have all probably seen him around. It's a burgandy color and has a Centrifugal Supercharger running like 22 PSI lol. 25K worth of upgrades and he said like 9k on tranny reinforcement alone. I wish I had an SUV that runs 11's.

Yea it sucks. He does quite a bit for us around here. Gonna miss him. mmmm bbq and violent games. sounds perfect.

Haha. Exactly my idea. Yea if we get our cruise together and he calls me back he can be my co pilot heh. I kinda like watching him mess around in the Justy though. Gus i'm sending you a PM about something because I think the topic is against the board rules.

cuz it's you bob!!! :lol:

Michael I saw you leaving work last night. The exhaust didn't seem too loud as you drove across the front of walmart.

Hey buddy. Yea I haven't met you but I recognized your Subby in the Wal Mart parking lot as I left. Yea it's not loud at all because I haven't touched my DP. Nice Subby btw. I always want to talk to you guys when I see non riced WRX's but it's always in passing.

Before I had the axelback muffler deleted I liked the sound even more without an Axelback at all! It was so nasty and loud. I'm surprised just adding 4 feet or so of piping can silence like that. Anyone know how strict Reno is if i completely take off my Axelback?

Btw Gus I got ahold of Moose/Mike. He's staying about 2 months now and he's doing fine just busy. When we do our little cruise next week or so, he said he would be interested in riding with me. Lets try to find like 3-4 others that wanna do the 50 minute or so round trip from Tamarack parking lot to Virginia city and back.

I don't know about the law so much as I know I'd rather not pass out from exhaust in the cabin while stuck in traffic.

There's a reason car's exhausts go all the way to the bumper.

Haha in 2 days it didn't hurt me but good point about there being a reason.

I have Monday thru Wednesday off until the 25th when i start school. But I don't start on Mon. and Wed. until 2pm
