Yup yup! That's the one! Only I don't think that company offers powdercoating so silver is the only colour option you've got.

If RacingLine comes out with their carbon fiber intake, I'll be selling my black Fujita for about that price......

Play nice kids...

Lanaya, my Fujita wouldn't have worked in your car anyway since you've got the CVT...

Fifty, just keep trying to get a quote on those tires! Are you serious about buying my Fujita? I eMailed RacingLine last night about whether or not they're following up on the thread they started. If they are, I'll hold on the Fujita for you!

Hey everyone! I'm hitting Race City Speedway tonight for a photoshoot with some G6 buddies of mine and perhaps for some racing as well...this might very well be the last weekend the drag strip is open since it's getting so freakin' cold out there!

We're meeting there at 7pm-ish. Drop me a line if anyone's interested!

Oh, didn't I tell you?They're still in development right now...it probably won't be out until X-Mas. After that, they'll come out with the CF version which I'm jumping all over.

I'm reviving this thread for one purpose only. Actually, two purposes. This dumping of snow we got today really sucks, I got stuck so many times

AND

It's been a long time since the Calgary members talked haha. How is everyone doing?

I HATE THIS CAR IN THE SNOW!!!

...more to the point, I hate driving my lowered car in the snow on tires that are almost an inch in diameter smaller than stock. This morning I got stuck, wedged up on the icy pilings between two truck tire tracks...everytime I go over less-than-traveled roads I can hear crap banging the underside of the car...

...I think it's time to get taller tires! haha

I'm still on the stockies, trust me that has to be the worst. It makes me kind of happy that my springs are STILL sitting in my garage though. But I'm definately going to purchase some winter tires today cause I have this feeling this snow will be around for a while At least its finally decent conditions to get some snowboarding in.
