Backing up a rwd car onto that ramp will result in a fail. Trust me. I seen it couple of times. I own the same ramp and I jack up the car and sliding it on to the rear wheels.

Oooh seeing pics like that make me loose faith in humanity very quick. I wish it was a felony in all states to leave a scene of a accident!

Figured it out, found the culprit. Sitting there on my driveway looking all shiny

But driving onto it in the front isn't bad? Just asking cause I bought ramps to avoid jacking it up

Ordered some LEDs from Diode Dynamics today. Maybe I can get them before the long weekend so I have some time off work to install them and play around.

Now to decide if I want to get some new taillights for myself for Christmas.

As far as I know, no. I don't talk to them or do anything that would cause them to do anything like that. This is just a place I'm renting a room from since I go to school away from home but I've talked to one neighbor and he seemed really cool. I talked to the one closest to me and they were fine as well. I think it might've just been an accident, I NEVER park in the driveway either because I'm afraid of tree branches of the tree near by falling so I usually park in the street. This one time I came back after finals for a small hour nap because I have work after, I thought I'm gonna be quick lets just park there.. I need to unload some things anyways so it'll be a short trip. Wrong decision. I was shocked when I saw it and confused but I'm glad it wasn't the paint, I would've been very upset at that. Windshield is no big deal, it happens.

Yea possibility it could be a slingshot. As for kids playing at 10 AM in the morning, I remember when I was a kid I didn't go out that early, maybe I did but what kids play outside nowadays? haha, I rarely see kids outside anymore.

Bought some "WRX Blue" paint as Dupont refers to 02C (WR Blue Pearl's paint code.) Not as high as I was expecting only $109/qt Chromabase.

I've done this before last time with no issues. Somehow the floor was slippery or cold this time.

We ended up moving the ramps on to driveway pavement and had no issues.


using a floor jack defy the point of the race ramps...

Installed Kartboy shifter bushing and trans mount insert. Love the feel. Add some noise into the cabin in 1st gear and some highway but I personally love gearbox whine
