It's 3" straight down after the initial divided wastegate collector. Plus its really shiny! Not that you can see it under the turbo shroud, but its funto look at when you open the box.

B--i've been thinking about making a fiberglass box for my sub. i know you were looking into doing one in your spare tire area, if i wanted to do that i think it might work... but i was wondering if anyone knows how much it would cost for all the glass and resin? by the way has anyone worked with alot of dynamat? cause my trunk is shaking more then SanFransico during an earthquake.

oh and i'm not gunna be posting alot in the next week because my dsl is fried worse then the chickens at KFC due to the storm the other day.

the fiberglass shouldn't cost that much . . . and just need a sheet of MDF to make the actually mounting ring for the sub and for the new false floor.
I bet it would be less than 100

dynamat is pretty easy to work with. we did a pretty complete install of it on my roomate's truck. just remember the stuff works well, but is heavy! expect to add at least 25-50 pounds if you completely cover the trunk

yeah, doesn't look like there are any shows coming up in the near future, so we should try and setup another meet date sometime before I have to go back to freakin school.

haha well maybe it would be better if we wait. that way stealth will have to be around since he will be going to umbc.
dude just thought about it again . . . do you have the stock alarm? if so you might want to get a much better one before you move on campus.
at potomac hall you have to either park on the loop or in the parking lot across the street. well actually I think they are still having freshmen park on that satellite lot which is like 5 miles from campus and has like no security.

damn . . . you might not want to even bring your car.

The bike is officially sold and I have cash in hand. Time to start ordering again. B- I'm probably gonna wait until I have every part I need before beginning the enclosure. So i'll give you plenty of notice before the big install day. Also, Resin is running about $45 a gallon. The mat is cheap but I was gonna be getting some fast forming foam to make the actuall mold with. That should be really fun. So you guys can either help out with that or wait till I fuck up enough that I know how to do it for your cars.

i've got a great car-audio mag that talks about using that foam to make really good molds and forms for use with fiberglass.

I'll see if I can find it, it should be pretty helpful.

basically you would lay down trash bags in the area you want to mold, apply the foam then use an exacto to cut and shape the foam to what you want. i'll try to find out the actual name of the foam they used too

I was reading on Nasioc theres a Evo-Impreza-VW/Audi meet coming up in northern VA 15 min outside of DC on Tuesday. Thats kind of a stretch coming from anywhere north of like rockville but just thought I'd throw that out there. I've never been to it before so I don't know if its any good.

I just finished disconnecting my daytime running lights... it's retardedly easy but a hard to get to with all the shit its under on the WRX. I remember on B's TS it was just sitting right out there

This threads a little dead. Whats up boys. When is our next meet? My mom just bought a '01 golf. I'm trying to talk her into letting me play with it but she's no game as of yet. She keeps yapping about gas mileage.

Pretty interesting call today. I got an alarm call at a very small church which is actually built in the rear of a small business park. Long story short, after clearing the alarm, I noticed a guy with his garage bay open buffing a 911 carrera. Interested, I stopped and started rapping to him. He explains to me that his business ships in all exotics and other european cars to the U.S. for clients that are moving here. He brings them up to U.S. epa specs so they can keep their cars in the states. One thing led to another and he showed me the rest of the garage. A 2002 Skyline GT-R, A 1992 Skyline SR20, 2002 Porsche GT-2, 6 mercedes of various models, and a SWEET M5. Its the first time I have actually seen a GT-R in person and I was not dissapointed. He said its will cost roughly $45,000 to bring it to Legal U.S. spec. Pretty cool to have him in my backyard. I plan on stopping down quite often now to see what he has gotten in.

Alright well the springs I got are blue and are made by SPT so we shall see how low hey will make my car look.. they costed me $210.00 and as far as the rims no news still on them as well as my headlights. There is some meet going on in Sept. that allows people to race their subaru's through cones or what have you. I forget the date but once I find the paper I will post the link to go sign up it cost $25 and apparently there ar 300 subaru's that show up but only 150 can race. I will post more later on it if I can find the paper. Now about that meet when did you want to do it and what did yonks want to do?
