Happy New Year everyone !!! I hope everyone survived the night happy and in good health

.. Is anyone else watching the WRC-ATHON today starting at 7 am(Pacific) and ending at (I believe)9 pm (Pacific) on the SPEED channel (#607)? Or I am the only LOSER to be taping this? Shhhh !! Don't tell anyone else... LOL

ArthurS · 2003-01-01, 01:15 PM

Happy new year also. I made out okay, just a small headache today.

BOO · 2003-01-01, 07:19 PM

By the way, Is there a way to insert a pic or image on here with a question? Such as: I have a (J) HKS BOV that I am wanting to find out where I can get a flange for or is the stock BOV flange ok to use with my BOV?
Thanks

<-- ok, i am not that cool , yet

Sorry, no image hosting options on this BBS. I guess I could take a look into programming it myself, but I'm not setup to code on this site right now (my dev server is still not running...).

Is this for a WRX? As far as I know, most the BOVs for the WRX simply bolt right on. Also, I think many BOVs are the same... If you've already got the BOV on had, bring it by the next time we meet, and we can check it out against my intercooler!

BOO · 2003-01-02, 01:57 AM

Perfect !! But I Originally purchased it in Hawaii from a gentleman whom I met which was running 400 ponies to his FD3S(Mazda rx7 TT). I have the flange for it but it's for an rx7...
Ps: That was when I was concidering on buying an rx7

Thanks again

Hey Guys !! On newstands now !! Turbo & Hi Tech Performance Maganzine's (Feb. 03) Article on the Subaru's 2.5RS Turbo Kit & WRX Turbo Upgrade.. Be Sure to Check it Out !!!!

BOO · 2003-01-05, 10:26 PM

Hey Guys !!! I need your Help

(Please)...
I have a body kit that I purchased for my 2G GSX consisting of a rear bumper, front bumber and a rear spoiler.. I have sold it but now am stuck with where to go to either find a company to wrap it up and a company to ship... Any Suggestions ???
Thanks, Much Apreciated

ArthurS · 2003-01-05, 11:43 PM

how heavy? there is always ups if its under a certain weight. If not, any freight company can do it. I shipped jetskiis via truck about a year ago and it was a few hundred dollars.

BOO · 2003-01-06, 07:49 AM

If I go with a freight company, Will I have to wrap the kit up?? in like bubble wrap???
Thanks for your Info. and Ideas

ArthurS · 2003-01-06, 08:43 AM

You can get industrial shrink wrap fairly cheap. Then just wrap them in that. Maybe some styrophome around the edges.

BOO · 2003-01-06, 09:03 AM

Thanks a bunch Arthur .. I really Apreciate your help

I am gonna go to Lowes and get some shrink Wrap ...

MattR · 2003-01-06, 05:46 PM

Where are you shipping it to? I'm an Ops Manager for a trucking company, I can help you out, email me, mroynv@yahoo.com

BOO · 2003-01-08, 07:16 AM

Hey Matt!!!

Perfect !!! Thank you very much... I'll email you the demographics this morning because I cant remember where it is .. lol.. and My wife has the info. at work, So she will call me to let me know
Thanks again

Ps: Hey Matt!!! My wife has also fallen in love with the wagon

MattR · 2003-01-08, 06:13 PM

HAHAHA! Does she wanna by mine, I'm ,......uh......thinking of getting....uh.....a kia or something, yeah thats it, a kia.

*secretly eyes an STI*

Also, you have mail.

sperry · 2003-01-09, 09:23 AM

Man, I want an STi so bad, it hurts...

I didn't think it was gonna own me so much! It's basically got everything I want to add to my car, and then some!! It's like all the modding is done and warrentied for me! Argh!

Too bad the STi is gonna take a shit on our WRX resale prices...

Hey what do you think would work better: selling the WRX now, and driving a beater till I can afford the STi (prolly a year), or driving the WRX for a like 2 years, till I can afford the STi? Bascially, will the resale be worse right now, just after the STi release, or worse later after more depreciation?

I think if I could get $18k for my WRX (after reverting it to stock) I'd sell it... but I think that's a little optomistic, considering my mileage.

Y0u h4ve b33n 0wnz0r3d! By the STi...

sperry · 2003-01-16, 01:51 PM

I'm not getting an STi anytime soon... at least 2 years. Gotta pay off the WRX.

And since I'm keeping the WRX... it needs at least 300hp... so I ordered Vishnu Stage 1!! So hopefully by the end of the month I'll get my exhaust parts, and Feb 7 I'll be in the Bay for ECU mapping / tuning.

All I need now are struts/springs/top mounts, rims and tires (for autocross), STi headlights, side skirts, grill, the rest of my Defi gauges, get some dents removed, and install a passenger side harness, and I'm done! Crap... that's still like $5000 worth of stuff. Ugh... neverending modding... but my WRX will OWN! hehe
