@Guff, my brother likes your wheels.

There's no curse! It's just a damn shame. Keep looking at the pics. Really sorry.

so been a while since i dropped in, i'm likely going to sell my brz in the spring/summer after taking it down highway 101. just doesn't feel like much point having two cars and no longer living in a house.

Same here,

Trying being the key word here, I go to bed at 10pm and only fall asleep around 1 am or I go to bed at 1am and am sleeping by 1:30. My body just does not like to go to sleep before the early morning hours.

Damn, hope you still stick around! You're a pretty cool dude to talk to, even though I've met you only once.. twice? lol

i'll be around for a while still, need to make that trip down 101 first before i do anything.

the way i see it, there will always be another time for a 2 door sports car. i think my time is currently running up and just keeping the fozzy makes more sense than having two cars in which 1 never gets driven.

also, keeping the brz means getting more into autocross and other things which cost money that will keep me from travelling around.

They are Gram Lights 57DR 17x9 +38 in Gun Blue. It took me months to get my hands on the set as they were a specific fitment made for 86 and the port strike last year made it so that there were very few sets in the US. They aren't particularly light (they're still cast) but at 21lbs/wheel, they are the same weight as the stock 17x7 wheel.

Needless to say, I'll be keeping them haha! Although, they should be pretty easy to find now.

Yup, eBay.
I could build a mountain with all the crap I've bought there. But it's so fun :-)
I love those little packages from China with the string ties and stamps and stuff.

Hit me up when you do the 101... I'd for sure link up with you from Lincoln City to the Redwoods, definitely one of my favorite drives. Got a place to crash in Lincoln City if you need too.

Cross posting between threads is a thing frowned upon. By at least me.
What we really need, is a tree structure. Sub-threads branching off sub-threads.

Anyway.

Pay the price, do it right, do it once. (This is going to be my new response to most things here I think)

So I try to think of examples of things were this would be a good response. Here's what I got.

3rd grade? Pay the price, do it right, do it once.
Marriage? Pay the price, do it right, do it once.
Gender reassignment surgery? Pay the price, do it right, do it once.

All of which would end with "well that is just your opinion"

Exactly! It would be the end of the world as we know it, complete chaos! MUWHAHAHA!
