And just to follow up, by that I meant he is patiently waiting for me to actually be able to buy an Evo again. So thanks again for that Tim!

haha, well if tim doesn't want to sell it... Mike (smikevo) is more than happy to sell his to me.

On a side note, the license plate on the prius rental flew off on memorial drive two days ago, had to pull over and get it... its now doing the USDM/JDM window mounting... The screw holes are stripped out. Gonna epoxy the plate screws in before I return it.

haha, I decided to be an *** and park with the rear tire on the curb while parallel parking... I got yelled at by a security gaurd.

I've been trying to get spinner hubcaps, but haven't hit any jumps yet. The ABS freaks out all the time and the tires squeal a ton around corners. I've gotten the car to do a slow reverse donut...

No jumps yet, I doubt that car would survive. I jumped the curb outside of Cambridgeside Galleria Mall and ran over one of those (pedestrians crossing) signs in front of McD's on river street in waltham...

...still deciding on parting with the car. If i sell it to you Jason I am worried about what _will_ happen more so than what might happen to my car

So I just finished installing my new surround sound system last night

Consists of a Yamaha RX-V565 receiver

Energy Take 5 speakers

& an Energy S-10.3 subwoofer

Break-in period is on so I haven't really "heard" them yet (Energy recommends 50 hours, but I will just leave music playing for the next couple days). Should be very nice though. And the HDMI pass-through is working out very nice as well

Turco is not impressed by anything 'baller' when it comes to Evo's.
