She hit 100k today, so I cleaned her up and did a photoshoot at the old Alameda Naval Air Station

Here's to another 100!

You should thank derbo instead. He's the one who showed me everything lol.

XKxRome0ox · 08-12-2019, 07:48 PM

totally missed the 70k mark
70003 doesn't look nearly as cool as 69999 or 70000

this photo hides the dirt well
needs a carwash badly

and that rear end feels so naked without a trunk spoiler
(didn't replace it after the LCI trunk swap)

At the rate my mileage increases (I drive one day a week, more like once every two weeks), I think I won't see that on my odometer for .... 25 years.

EndOfAnEra · 08-12-2019, 09:45 PM

Installed my 359M wheels that were delivered today and re-installed my cluster after having a local guy install red gauge faces

Megabrode · 08-13-2019, 07:14 AM

Added EAS exhaust tips to my OEM modded exhaust. Now the look matches the sound. Also got my passenger door repainted where somebody keyed me a couple of weeks ago. Life in the big city.

The suspension seemed to glide over the pavement merely undulating over rises and valleys in the road. The car tracking into curves in the road with barely a urge of the steering wheel. The noise seemed to quiet a few decibels. Windows down with some Zeppelin playing on iPod, I managed to glide for at least 8 miles without touching the brakes seeing the holes in traffic appear as if they were in harmony with the car.

Then the whole illusion was shattered by those God forsaken Northern Virginia drivers

Rare utopia in our neck of the woods, that is for sure

Changed front drivers side wheel bearing, feels much better now even though the old one didn't seem that bad, then as re-fitting the wheel I notice a nicely polished nail near the inside shoulder of the tire. Not losing any air but not risking pulling it out.

ItsGary · 08-14-2019, 09:52 AM

Removed license plates.

What's the spec of your wheel and tire setup? Looks good. I just ordered a set of 18s and 275/35 tires. Hoping to have them before end of the month. I'll be doing one more track day at the Ridge end of the month.

18x10 et25 wheels with 12mm spacers front (only reason for 12mm on front is to clear the kw cs, until I swap springs this winter) and rear.

Dpc2u · 08-15-2019, 05:32 PM

Today, oil change, LM 10-60. Then drove it to Homeless Depot to grab a couple things.

Bartledoo · 08-15-2019, 11:12 PM

Drove a bunch of kids and their parents around the track all day for the Camp Good Times Drive-a-Thon. It was really amazing to see everyone rally around this event. Managed to only have one kid urge me to go "slightly faster"...she didn't realize I was already going about as fast as I could!
