There aren't many of us around.

I also spotted a black evo on carson street last week while I was in mine.
I wonder if they are a member here?
That was probably me, the silver one. I frequent the waterfront now. I parked next to a white RS at damons down there one night. And parked next to venom at Red Robin. I always see venom down there.

I do tons of driving now. I went from 6,400 on the odometer to 8,800 in one month. That's rare for me. Don't get me wrong, I love every minute of it, but I don't want to go too overboard. So how was that sway bar install jeremy? I would like to get one myself, but for now I just went with the trunk bar, rear strut tower brace, and type 1 and 2 cusco lower arm bars. Sway bars are coming soon. Oh and I got some Evo IX tails on the way. Still can't get over the ruined $800 lip, but what you gonna do. Oh and my 72 in a 25 ticket is going to get reduced to practically nothing. My girlfriends mom knows someone who knows the rankin magistrate. I lucked out this time.

I can get those sway bars for $185. no tax. If you pick up the jan issue of sport compact car, they just put one on thier project evo and got .3 more g's out of the car with the bar. its suppose to make the car more neutral. I havn't really been out driving much so i can't really attest to that. So steelcity how much are they charging for cams? I"ve been thinking of doing those soon. myself.

I have been wanting cams for a long time, but I just dont' want to drive my car out of tune. And it doesn't look like anyone is interested in a reflash so i'm out of luck. Any of you guys who dont' have Al's flash should seriously consider it. The best bang for the buck mod out there. And he does do a good job. We all will verify that.

As far as sway bars go, I thought it was better to get a front one than a rear? Or can I do both. I love neutral handling, but don't mind a lot of understeer.
