I would love to come and help out. Ive been learning alot of stuff from school and have been dying to work on an 8. Just give me the orders, lol!

It was between the BR BR coilovers, or the Bilstein PSS9s. I eventually decided on the PSS9s. I rode around in my friend's Mazdaspeed 3 with the BC BR and while the handling was definitely better, there were horrible squeaking and clunking sounds coming from the suspension.



Fast shipping from tirerack.

I also have a few other goodies on the way.

I'm not sure if they have more than one bay, and you pay something like $0.50/min, but on the plus side, it's warm in there! I haven't done any recon yet, but if nobody is game, I'll go check it out myself at some point.

I drove by that area this afternoon, so I turn into that Shell gas station to check it out. The self wash is now increased to $0.75 per min. (I think like maitre said, it used to be $0.50, cause I can see they revised the price easily)

There is no one lining up there, so I read the signs and it said something if you buy gas, then it's 10% less, if no gas, then its $0.75 + tax or something....... after I read the sign, I left....... so technically, I haven't washed my car at there yet.

Although it's supposed to snow a bit through the week (or more likely rain, I would say), the weather is supposed to be warming up nicely. Should be a good meet this Friday!

I say we do some food or bubble-tea, or something at least, this time!
