I work with a lot of mechanics.. Everytime I pull up in the Evo, one of them says.. "Oooo.. You must have just put on the new brakes! Nice upgrade!" (Stock Brembos)

When I sold my IX my local gas station attendant noticed after a few months and brought it up.

Attendant: Hey you sold your silver mitsubishi?
Me: Yeah the value kept climbing and I had to pay medical bills from breaking my foot last year.
Attendant: Yeah? Did you at least get enough to pay your bills?
Me:Well I did pretty well and sold my 06 for twenty-four.
Attendant: Wow, twenty-four hundred isn't bad at all man. Congrats!
Me: Umm, no twenty-four THOUSAND man.
Attendant: Yeah right. That's not custom. It didn't even have lambo doors!

*FACE PALM*

An acquaintance asking a question to my friend: "So when are you and EvoTeyn gonna race?"
Me: "Whenever we can get to the track"
Guy: "Why not right now on the highway?"
Me: "Because we're not dumb*****"
Guy: "Whatever man you could smoke him (friend has a stock sti); What do you got under the hood?"
Me: "An engine"
Guy: "No ****, like what mods?"
Me: "Does it matter? It's still faster than your v-tec..."
*me and friend walk away*

Goofy kid: (sticks head out the window and eyes my car front to back) hmmmm, nice car. Wrx?
Me: noooope.
Goofy kid: oh, evo.
Me: yup
Goofy kid: well the wrx is better.
Me: ok...
Goofy kid: well if you gotta have the training wheels like all wheel drive to help you in the corners...
Me: (looking over at my gf) listen to this ****ing guy.
Goofy kid: well rear wheel drive is so much better.
Me: ok man.
Goofy kid: well maybe it would be cool if we had the same car they had in Japan, like that all wheel drive fiesta like ken block.
Me: haha sure.
Goofy kid: (gives me my ****) hey, enjoy your evo.

I cant believe you held back. Incedible restraint. Sometimes I would saythat it makes sense to do us all a favor and explain the error of their ways early in a conversation in a kind way but this kid jumped straight to D-bag. I dont know if I could have handled that as well as you. Well done.

Now that I have some Mc Donalds insider info I will be on the lookout for a JDM AWD (training wheels version) Monster Fiesta. If I can get lucky, maybe I can pick up a used one for five bucks and a cheeseburger!

just got around to putting a boost gauge a while back and a friend needed a ride to the store.

friend: looks at the gauge, so does that mean you can turn the turbo on and off?

me: (while off boost) yeah this is it turned off
(give a little part throttle maybe 12psi) this is with it turned on

friend: oh **** it really works!


just a few days ago I had just finished installing a wideband and was testing it out on idle to see if I hooked everything right and my friend walks by.

friend: so what ya doing this time

me: oh you know just checkin if I installed my wb correctly

friend: (while car is idling) does that thing show you how fast your going
