2-STI's
1-2004 WRX w/2.5l swap
1-2008 Mazda MX-5
1-2004ish Corvette FRC
1-Mustang 3.7l V-6, six speed w/track package
1-Cobalt (automatic on all season tires)
1-92 SVX 5 speed (HOT  )
Needless to say I wasn't the fastest vehicle on the road in this group but the old girl acquitted herself well. Of course, the coilovers were installed along with one set of my summer high performance tires and gutted interior (door back is empty). I got the Recaros locked down the night before along with an oil change.
The owner of the new Mazdaspeed 3 is the Japanese president of a Japanese auto parts supplier who hadn't seen an SVX over here but knew them in Japan. He was surpirsed to see one in the group and was impressed by the mods. Nice
That's it for me for a while again as our new son's arrival is imminent and life outside of babycare for all intents and purposes ceases to exist. See you again at Christmas
