Just moved to clear lake a few months ago with my protege 5 and NA miata. Just need to get some money in order.

Saw a red frs yesterday at Kroger on el dorado with a brz spoiler.

These cars just always seem to look good.

Haha I guess it doesn't. I think Ill just wait for Nov. C&C. I don't want to pay $20 to park and get a wristband when C&C is free.

Tell me how it is though?

Well just got back. Only stayed like an hour if that. It seemed like a tiny herrafrush meet and there certainly wasn't 150 cars like Gilman said there'd be. lol Lot of sick ass subies and G35's though.

Totally worth coming out just to see DoBoy and NSX_guy's cars in person, but was hoping to see synack bring his car out too.







Then Gilman brought their toy out. Mach V Awesomes with parody volk livery and blacked out tails. Ron Carter's car might just be a tad cooler, sorry. lawl

Mp3 struts, tein s-techs, racing beat rear sway.
Some 17s (used to have Rota sub zeros but finally bent them to hell after like 9 years of use).

Black headlights, kartboy shifter and bushings.

Hks exhaust. I just put the stock header back on to pass inspection so I have an obx header as a spare.

Also have a dgm urethane lip sitting in the garage that I'm no longer using.

4 8s in a ported box In the hatch with a false floor for amps.

Used to have a carputer years back. If you search my name on either mp3car forums or on protege5.com forums you could probably see pictures during its glory days. Now it's really just a reliable beater until I trade it in. I've owned this car for ten years ago it's time to move on.

I swapped in a fpde (1.8) earlier this year when I blew the 2nd motor. Both times my fault oh well.

Wow that was a long post.


Back on topic I just got back from Gilman too and was finally able to see a limited brz. I've test driven the frs but the interior of the Subaru just feels laps and bounds nicer so that made my decision between the two cars.

HMMM in baytown HMMM

I'll be there with some Lake Charles people. Just seeing how many locals would be attending. I'm always down to meet new folks :happy0180:

Also trying to make up my mind whether or not to enter the car show with my friends (I'm still pretty stock lol) or just park in the parking lot and hang out all day anyway.

Houston 86 website almost ready for launch, still needs work but would rather put it up and have it be a work in progress than have it not up until 100%.

Not saying until it's live. Unfortunately we will not have forums from day one, but I'm working on that. Definitely don't want to compete with this site on that stance.
