I'd be in for the 30th, but this next weekend I can't. I'm in moving mode on the weekends and I have to pick up my washer/dryer.

True, but if you factor in attitude, I'm not sure there was ever a period in my life when I truly got into drunk debauchary. More like just some mild inebriation. :happy0180:

I could probably fit the 16/17. The 30th i'll be gone most likely.

So add your name for whichever day(s) work for you to meetup. We'll pick the day where we can get the best turnout. If you prefer one day over the other note that too. I'm leaning towards the 30th since the weather will probably be nicer, and I'll have some mods to show off by then.

It sounds like lunch at Pizza Luce in Hopkins still works for everyone.

I can make it either (Or both). I love me some Luce.

I wish they had Alaskan Hop Thermia. Saga is my go-to there.

Cool,

I'll keep updating my original post as people chime in.

Just ordered some Rota Grids from Wheeldude. 17x9 flat black with a set of 245/40 Ventus V12. Going to order some springs now. Can't wait!

I'm so lost with what I want to do this year for bolt-on mods...I'm leaning towards a catback exhaust but then I saw the magnificent Gram Lights 57DR GB thread from @RavSpec

Originally, I was planning on wheels, tires and springs for 2014 but I'm getting antsy.

It would take another month to budget wheels, tires, and springs vs buying a catback and possibly intake. Suggestions?

I really love my Perrin catback, sure it doesn't really make the car much faster, but the tips look great, and it sounds so good.

Vrooooooooommmm!

I have been looking at exhaust as well. Waiting for the Nameless catted header then I'll be getting that and their over/front pipe. As far as catback, I have no idea what to you. I really like the Legamax Premium with the huge 5" tips. Sounds (and looks) so good! Nameless claims it's a waste to replace the midpipe and I'm inclined to believe them.

I'm looking at the two Eibach spring kits right now. Trying to decide if I want a 1" or 1.4" drop (Pro compared to sportline). Worried about not enough drop with one and too much with the other.

What do you have planned for upgrades, if anything?

Personally, I'll take sticky tires and suspension work over a few horsepower and some noise every single time.

Very true. For me wheels, tires, and suspension are here, just sitting waiting for the weather to warm up some before installing.

HKS Legamax is what I'll end up with (the one I really want) but I'll have to postpone my purchase one more month...

Wheels, tires, and suspension will be next year. I know I can calm the compulsive spirit. In my opinion, there will be many twins' owners swapping and selling these like crazy this summer so if the right deal comes along, I'm down.

As far as total upgrades, I'll keep it pretty mild. After I install the bolt-ons, it'll be JDM interior bits and tint. I plan on having a dd that can have some fun, but not become a project car.
