I may not be able to make Saturday morning after all. I may have to go into work, we're trying to get a lot of stuff out the door before the end of the quarter.

Man I think my argento would look so nice with TRD PTR18-21060 wheels. Just wish they had a 17 x 7 version so I wouldn't have to buy new tires

I wish I can make it to the saturday morning thing. But I am the only one who is currently making the weekly deposits and pay bills at my side gig. So my boss is going to through a fit if I dont show up. Hopefully I will get saturday morning off next month.

On a side note.I got a ticket on monday. A very stupid one too. Got one at the ACC campus at northridge. Had to come over there after work to take a test for one of my CPA course.and the car next to me was one the white line and they look like they cant really drive so I was afraid they were going to scratch up my car when they back out. So I moved over a little.My passenger side rear tires was over the white line about 1cm.And I got a ticket for that. Did it a million times before with my corolla and had no problems.Looked around and saw a few other people who were over the line didnt see a ticket on their windshield. So beware everyone. The car stands out so dont speed or park in over the white line at an ACC campus.

ACC cops, Mickey? I used to collect UT parking tickets man

Saw 2 FR-S this afternoon. a red one near south first and ben white anyone? and a silver one in front of One Texas Center, must be the same car I saw at Austin Water.

Almost bottom out twice today, I could hear the bottom brushed lightly against the concrete driveway, pp keep talking lower springs, i need stiffer springs!

I'm sad that maybe no one will come Saturaday morning How about I take my wife and we all show up to that night event?

Yeah ACC rent-a-cops. They really need to go some real crime to fight instead of harrassing people. I mean seriously 1cm.? It wasnt like I was purposely taking two spaces.I was actually thinking lowering springs too. just 1.5cm to 2 cm.I might get them if I dont bottom out the next couple of months. I remember when I was in drivers ed in Amarillo, Tx and it was my turn to drive. I was crusing along at about 50mph and the instructor told me watch out there is a dip up ahead. And I was sitting there thinking "what is a dip?" and the wham the camry bottom out. it occur to me that is what a dip was.lol. They passed me if I promise to not drive there and go back to austin before I start driving.

Anybody thinking exhaust? Cause the opening on the bumper looks too big for the stock tips. I just want to fill it up a little better.

Hey is getting a new intake really much better than just getting a high-flow filter? :confused:

Just orders the K&N high flow filter. Part number: 33-2300
