I have been looking at going stage 2 ECUtek for a few days now and was just wondering if anyone in chicagoland area had a cable that I could borrow in exchange for a case of your favorite frosty beverage

I have yet to buy the tune so I'm not desperately freaking out trying to find one. But if I could find one and save myself the $ that'd be lovely.

Hello! I see an Orange FRS by downtown Grayslake. Anyone else up in that area? I also commute to Schaumburg for work and have seen this chick often in a white BRZ. (I'm in a white FRS, tinted windows only)

86 twins(yes, BRZ AND FR-S) will be allowed to register/participate for both the car show and auto cross event. Car show category specific to the twins is pending and dependent on whether or not there is a large 86 showing. Last year there was only 3-4 of us, so we definitely need to change this!

Click the above links for event registration, specific location/dates/times, hotel accommodations, previous years photos. If you're interest in becoming a sponsor for the event contact info is also on site.


Also look up/like Scoobapalooza - The Midwest Subaru Event on Facebook.
A bunch of us are going to cruise from Schaumburg, IL down there. Let me know if you guys would be interested in coming along

This reminds me, I also have an innovate MTX wideband gauge kit as well. Ran it for a month or so until I got my P3 cars vent gauge

$125, also includes an extension harness so you can run the sensor in your secondary O2 sensor port in the header, and run the wiring nice and hidden to your drivers side vent. I can also include an acrylic cutout so you can install the gauge right into your vent with no modification.

Saw a few in Chicago today, near Logan Square/Avondale area.

Also saw a Blue guy going East away from the Woodfield area. Quite a day of sightings!

The silver grill is a dead giveaway. Maybe i should have painted it black.

Finally got around to lowering down my coils this weekend and putting on wheels.

Hope to find some good shows this spring and summer to attend, so if you know of any besides Scoobapalooza and the Summer Import Alliance meet in Louisville, please do share the info!
