Seems he did exactly what 100% of us would expect him to do. Good on him.

On that note, I'm looking to sell some BC Racing BR coilovers within the next week when I get my new suspension installed.
Should have just thrown swift springs on that kit

Probably my Tomei 60S catback. It's a good-sounding exhaust, but it's a bit too loud for my tastes. At that noise level, I think I'd rather have a catless header and stock headerback.

Catless header, at least OFH, and stock headerback system sounds weird. Very tractorlike at low RPMs and doesn't quite hit nice notes unless past 5k (which seems to be when the motor takes over anyway).

Others have expressed similar opinion before I have ran this setup and I wondered if it was true.. to me it is

STi all titanium shift knob. Yes, it's more durable for wear (no leather to wear out) and smaller than stock, but it's broiling in the summer and freezing in the winter. It looks awesome though.

I like it. I don't think it's perfect though. Maybe that's the problem. Can I stay if I promise to only point out the good things I feel about the thing? I assume I won't convince you I like them since the fact that I spent 30k of my dollars to buy one didn't convince you.
