    i think i see you around a lot. do you park in parkaire kroger shopping center often?

    I am not sure where that is. There is a restuarant in a Kroger shopping center at the intersection of Johnson's Ferry and some other road several miles north of Upper Roswell that we eat at often. If the car you see is parked on the side near the Japanese restuarant in that shopping center, then yes - that is me.

    Yea I was told that 35 was legal unless you want that 6" strip. But for a little extra money and a cash payment so no paper trail haha they'll pretty much do anything.

    Hey stuart, my name is Jeff. I was wondering how you liked you q300 cat back. I've been looking into that specific one for a while now but wanted to talk to someone that actually had it.
     
  31. issueslude99

    issueslude99 New Member

    Well I will let you know once i get the car back. It actually just got rear ended a week ago and is currently being fixed at Magnum. When I got hit it bend the exhaust and I had to get a new one and rather then going with a stock I got the body shop to let me put on an aftermarket. Hopefully I like it, I had been looking at it for a while too and couldn't pass up the chance to get a full catback for $50-$100.

    Hey guys--My name is Ben, I'm 42 and new to the site. I have a new to me 2002 Dark Blue WRX. I live on the NE side of Cartersville and cruise through Canton on the way to Alpharetta for work.
    My little ninja is bone stock. Looking to jump into modding in the near future.
    I like to do anything outdoors, ride dirtbikes and streetbikes. Looking forward to going to some of the get-togethers to learn more about this Subaru!
    Yes, I wave at other wrx's :)

    Thanks,
    Ben

    [*]Where do you live? San Jose CA

    [*]What do you drive? 08 Impreza WRX

    [*]How modded is your ride? Just bought and learning, but everything I touch is custom made or modified. looking for exhaust, fix the under steer, stiffer rear springs. if I could I would go rally, but I am on street so no fast off road, I use my Toyota 4runner for Rock Crawling.

    [*]Where do you usually by parts? have not found the popular good place yet.

    [*]Do you visit any other local boards? I just started so I have only spent my time here and on Nasioc. finding a difference in the type and the amount of info between forums though, basic not high end, and high end but no simple stuff.

    [*]Show, Go, or Stock and staying that way? Go:) but simple for now

    [*]Do you wave to other wrx's when you see then coming towards you?
    sometimes, if they seem cool.

    [*]Where did you find out about WRXatlanta?
    [/list] [/b]
    searching for info.

    First mod is going to be making a Flip Key. I find it a Pita and ridicules on a 08 to have a remote and a separate key.
    I am still figuring out what exhaust system to go with.
    Going to get a Cobb tuner unless there is something that fits my needs and budget better.

    Looking forward to gaining knowledge and providing reviews and facts here at WRXAtlanta

    Thanks
