    Hey my name is Danny. I don't have a Subaru yet, but wouldn't mind picking one up for a winter beater.
    Current vehicles are a S2000, Ruckus, and Grom.

    Yep that's me, well if you see it drive by and you hear the embarrasing noise its making due to the rear struts being out then its not mine lol! guess its an excuse to buy coilovers. I saw your avatar and remembered seeing your civic for sale and parked down the street.

    Thanks I might do that. I'm trying to decide on what to go with. I don't really want to spend $1,000+ for coilovers so I've been looking in the $400-$600 range raceland, Megan, emusa but after reading reviews on cheap coilovers idk. My old integra had koni yellows with eibach pros I loved the ride so maybe that's the way I should go. You ever had coilovers or thoughts on which way to go? My name is Ryan by the way.

    One of the first bits of advice I ever got from a Subaru forum was: Don't buy cheap coilovers.

    Should work for me if we can get a solid group together. I think a lot of people meet at Tintmasters.. I've been here for four years and have yet to go there though, so that's an unknown scene to this guy.

    Let's do this, we can start a thread in the events forum to discuss times, place, etc for a meet up here. It seems like we could have a pretty decent turnout if we open it up to he people around here.
