I have thought about just buying acorn lug nuts, cutting the tops off and making them different colors just so I can sell them for some outrageous price claiming they are racing lug nuts.

Vivid racing has the Perrin for the same price, going to either go buy there, or on eBay, no tax, free shipping!

A drop in filter and an after market intake tube will give you the most bang for your buck. You can even make your own inlet tube, like @chrisbfrs has made for a lot of members.

It is bad on lots of cars because the seat shape of their stock lugs is different. However it's fine on the twins, as long as the lug nuts will fit in the wheel, they can be used (stock lug nuts are kinda fat and won't fit in many aftermarket wheels)

Its odd how many people dont know the difference between tuner lugs and stock lugs

Haha, I didn't before I got this car...back when my ratio of sets of wheels to cars was 1:1.

Hey guys, quick PSA:

Pre-registration for the two day Tucson auto-x event closes tonight at 7PM. These events are more than twice as fun as a single day event!

Event info and links to prepay at the discounted rate is here:

Registration is at www.mindthecones.com

Import Face Off is in Tucson on Sunday, so you could make a weekend of it with a day of autocross and a day at IFO.

What a tough week on my car. Sunday was a tough autox day and I hit a lot of cones, and one of them damaged the wheel well liner on the drivers side. The result was the liner leaving my car while doing 70 mph on the 101. Then yesterday, in the campus parking lot, some airhead girl drove into the left rear wheel well. The damage isn't severe, but it pissed me off.

I ordered a liner through Marcos at Camelback Subaru so I can have one before this weekend's autox. (not sure if I am going, it depends on the prognosis of one of our dogs).

Tomorrow, I will go to the body shop for the insurance appraisal.

I hate it when my baby is in rough shape.

Well ended up ordering that diffuser off ebay cross and captain jack. It looks alright for the money I don't think it actually does anything aerodynamics wise like a real diffuser though haha : p

Yeah That's what I got it for I like it. Think I'm gonna wrap my roof in red carbon fiber vinyl next. Not sure if I'll like it or not but if I don't I can always peel it off. In other news took my car to get the alignment done just to be safe. The shop couldn't get it on their ramp because it was too low haha.
