    I learend lots from it. I also managed to get sunburned in the stupidiest looking way. My face is a red in a wierd way. my nose is red, but not the round tip of it, i'm sunburned under my eyes but it only streches almost as low as my nose. And I also have sun burn on my neck, so now I have a red neck.

    And I wish I brought my camera.

    Hey everyone, sorry I didn't make it up there. I got stuck with some of my wife's friends coming to visit...and well, one of their husbands is pretty cool (introduced me to my wife...and hence I have a wonderful daughter...I don't claim the wife! j/k). I stayed here until they left today. I am definately plannin' on being there the next meeting. I want to come and meet everyone and see what everyone has done to their rides. I know people have a lot more time and money than I do so I want to see what I can get for the money I spend.

    I am going to try and find the few other Columbus GA WRX/STi owners and bring a few of them too. I already talked to one that works with me and he is coming up with me for the next install/meeting day in Feb.

    Lates!

    Steve

    I've had a very good time today! It was good to meet you guys and I've learned a lot about installing stuff, knowledge that I'm gonna apply once i get my new parts. I'm tired and sunburned like everybody else but i'm glad I went.

    Wonderful Turnout Everyone! A big thank you to those who came out. The day was perfect, Milo was drunk, the weather was amazing, and the chilli ended up being alright. I have a snap-on cooler (red and white) sitting in my trunk. If you own this, lemme know and I'll get it back to you.

    Thank you again to Brian and Ped for their help with the seat, its amazing. Oh, and the coilovers are awesome.

    What an awesome turnout!!!

    Glad to hear the seats are good. Have to keep us updated with
    how they end up working on longer drives. I'll be getting to mine "fixed"
    something in the next couple of weeks.

    Also Brian's sig is teh funnay.... "HYAIT STi Seat #2"
    Have to ask him what the acronym means.

    Milo,
    I am a new member and looking for support from like minded tuners. Basically I am looking for guidance from people that know what their talking about. I have pretty much kept my WRX Stock, however I am lookng to upgrade my rotors, pads and exhaust system, immediately. I want to address all upgrades aspects of my WRX
    I live in TN, but come to Atlanta about every 2-3 weeks on business. I was wondering when you were hosting another "gathering of the minds", hopefully in March?
    I am totally new to the Tuner scene, but would enjoy the comradery.
