Time to build storage shelves in the garage and get some stuff off the floor.

Kinda meh. I used to enjoy Canterbury in the WRX, because the AWD fixed a lot of the surface issues.. not so much in big HP RWD Z. The course was also a bit too tight and didn't flow well. Lots of drive it in, park it, turn, and accelerate. Ugh.

Oh well. Got my points in to trophy for the season, and the weather was decent. cant complain too much.

Going to the MNSubaru dyno day on Saturday, and then it's back into the garage to have the entire suspension ripped apart for upgrades over the winter.

Who needs for free had extra set sent with my brakes? I will give Greg first dibs though since he helped me out with my tires. If he doesn't want it goes to next in line.

Ok, so this winter I plan on saving up for some new rims because lol curb scratches. Looking at mainly a thick 5 spoke gloss black style. Any brand I should go for or avoid? (hoping to spend under 2k. . Preferably unter $1.5k)

These would be my first choice using your criteria. They're not gloss but you could have them cleared or leave them as is since they look badazz out of the box. These have 3mm front and 10mm rear spacers, also available in 9.5 for the front. Id opt for the 9.5 and run no spacers and maybe a wider tire for the rear.

SSR GTV01
18x10.5+15
Nitto NT05 275/35 for the front and 285/35 for the rear

Alrighty Greg looks like stock2auto gets the brake lines.

@scuba I know they aren't 5 spoke but I went with 6 spoke Varrstoen ES 2.2.1 TE37 Replica Wheel Set - 18 Inch. think everything together was $1,900-2,000
9.5 +12 nt05 275/35 18 front
10.5 +22 nt05 295/35 18 rear

Can we get a consensus on what we'd like to do for the next big/Fall cruise?
