I am really getting the hang of EcuFlash and EvoScan. Changing settings based on road logs is becoming second nature. I can't wait for better weather so I can start extracting some power from all of my mods.

So what is everyone going to do to their cars this winter?

driving 4 miles a day... eventually fix the wheel studs on the right rear wheel that Tire Discounters mangled -- along with the lugs...

Oh if anyone is looking for a new brake pad for daily driving -- giro disc magic pads are quite awesome. Great initial bite, no noise at all and very little dust (in fact, i haven't seen any yet...)

Garage queen...

Maybe a couple mods but she's still a virgin.

Anyone want to go waste some money at the go-karts in lawrenceburg? It may be a boring, cold weekend...

I'd also be up for some drinks and/or food at BJ's@tricounty, Mainstrasse, Newport, etc. If we are going for drinks, might as well go somewhere with good brews. BJ's and Mainstrasse are probably the best for finding quality brews.

I am open to suggestions if anyone wants to get out in this cold...

Well we could always drink domestics at topshelf (now Take5)...is that close enough for you?

I bet its cold in that place but I remember going when it was cold and it was only bad when they opened up the one garage door...If its that bad then you can wear the sweet racesuits they provide. don't be a wuss!

Anyone have the GTWorx springs around here? I haven't read anything negative on them and there is last run special for a decent price....

I'm old and allowed to be cantankerous! I never drink Domestics tho, they give me a headache. When we went last winter there were no doors open and you could see your breath in there.

I have a set of stock wheels with worn our Sumitomo HTR+ tires I will let go pretty cheap.

What are you needing them for? Do you have any others to offer up to trade?

Caught a curb with the LR this morning after dropping my wife off at work. I have no other wheels ATM, or even parts for that matter... How cheap? How beat?

Minor scratches from usage. One has a small curb rub about 1 inch long. How about $350 for all 4?

Did you just get some coilovers? If not, depending on the condition of your MR suspension we could work something out for a trade+ cash. I have a set of PIC TSO coilovers I don't use as often as I'd like.
