    Got here to Cali about a week ago, and am currently saving up some money to get a big upgrade :D

    Stay tuned Lancer fans! :)

    Anyone think I could get the cat-back part of the exhaust system from Injen since i've already got the axle back part?

    So, I just called RRM and found out that as of right now, im at about 60% for my "buy the turbo kit" turbo fund. Install takes them about 2-3 days, and they discount the install if you are having them install more than just the turbo there. they said i don't need to worry about upgrading the brakes, and recommend a stage 1 clutch upgrade, which i will be getting along with the flywheel. also going to do the headers and all that fancy jazz, so overall my savings for the project is at about 49.99%. Will hopefully get this done before the end of the year.

    Good luck, bro. I have a few, let's call them "future endeavors", brewing as well.

    yeah, I mean, I could afford to get the turbo and have it installed, but I want this job done right, so yeah...gonna save up and get all the other stuff. :D

    so I had to go on base today to grab some stuff from the store, and right as i walk out with a co-worker, we spot this female whip her car door out as quickly as possible...right into my driver side door...here's the damage:

    I stayed pretty calm during the whole thing, asked him what he wanted me to do, he said he'd pay me cash to get it handled.

    So $130 later,

    and then the car got detailed, so here's a glamour shot of her sitting on the street right now...I know, there hasn't been much upgraded yet, but give me about a year, and there should be some really awesome stuff that will be done.

    Glad to hear about a good story of door dings. All you usually hear about are the bad ones with people not saying anything or what not. Still looks good though.

    yeah, well the messed up thing is that they tried to walk away and act like they didn't do anything wrong.

    and yeah, if i would have chipped in an extra 100, they would have clay bar'd her, but i didn't have the time...

    so yeah, I think I'm going to hold off modifying the lancer for a while, as I just acquired a new toy :D

    Sick. I've considered a bike as well, but can't really justify one as of right now. Probably not later either. Lol. Have fun with it.

    oh I intend to, especially since gas prices just jumped .50 a gallon...

    so yeah....wrecked the bike, only plastic damage and the gas tank got a dent, other than that nothing wrong with it.

    As for the orange-mobile, I can't think of anything to do to her right now...
