    Sounds good :biggrin:

    I actually haven't gotten my vehicle yet. I bought it in Washington and it's being shipped here. I got a great deal on it and the guy that sold it to me has a great reputation, so hopefully things work out. I just wanted a Subaru so I can have a winter vehicle and summer vehicle all rolled into one. My bagged S10 would of driven alright in the winter, but never took off my summer tires :banghead:

    Welcome Blaine neighbor! I have been keeping an eye out for you I guess now I will be keeping my ears open as well. Get yourself down to firestone one of these weekends I think you'd enjoy it.

    Hi everyone...I'm new to the world of Subaru. I just got out of the service and back to MN to start my new life.
    I got the new job, new car, and I'm shopping for engagement rings, but after cruising around the WRX for a month now I think its more important that I do some shopping for summer wheels and tires instead! I love these cars! Any suggestions?

    Oh, and by the way, what is Firestone?

    Hi fellow Subaru owners
    My name is mark and I recently got a 1999 2.5 rs. I used to drive a 99 civic si until it was stolen. I am new to subarus and dont really know anything about them. I do know that it is way more fun to drive than the civic.

    Oh and is it the firestone off university?

    Jason is (readymix) 04 WRX Silver, he's a good guy, he is probably there every week. Just bring some DVDs, you'll know what I mean when you meet him and see his Rex.

    Yea...The spin out was a thrill! =P...Luck was on my side, that is for sure...

    Hi. I have a stock 02 silver WRX that ive had since 01, but with kid raising and home owning I havent been forking additional money into my car. I just showed up to last weekends firestone meet and look forward to getting over there again.

    I am going to be replacing my rotors/pads and catback exhaust this next couple weeks to start doing some AutoX. I will be trying to stay stock for a while but I am sure ill be asking for help soon enough when I get sucked into more modding.

    When you are ready to do the brakes, give Mark a call at deversified (frozenrotors.com). just tell him you are part of mnsubaru and he will hook ya up with our discount.

    Yet another Newb.

    Hi there, happy to have found this board, thanks to one of your members who shares my passion for going fast on two wheels.

    I am a recent convert from a life long relationship with Volkswagen . . . for years I had operated under the World View that: if the pavement was not good enough to play on two wheels, it was to bad to play therefore motorcycles are for performance and cars are for when the weather is icky, groceries need getting, dog needs hauling, or other scenarios in which I was not going to be “playingâ€. In short, bikes are for speed and fun, cars are for utility and economy. I have had somewhat of a shift in worldview. I am viewing the Subaru as an opportunity to have my cake and eat it too.

    So, I picked up a 2002 WRX Wagon, with plans to keep it as “stealth†as possible, minimize any mods that are visible from the outside, sporting benign silver, and hopefully stay off the cop’s radar . . . while having a little fun every now and again. My dog loves the space and I am very pleased with the car.

    guess i'll finally post here. I picked up an 04 STi about a month ago - great car, i love it!

    i'm coming from the land of 240sx's, i have 2 at the moment (and they're for sale!). i've also previously owned a gvr4, and a jdm h22a swapped accord so i've been into a lot of different stuff but i'm a newb to subaru.

I also love to drive and mess with hondas. hope to see yall around. Iam moving to duluth for college this year and am interested in any clubs around there so if anyone knows shoot me a pm or whatever. thanks, Joe Olivieri:biggrin:

    I'm also one of those who has been lurking. Bought my 06 TR in May and have been enjoying every minute since. Just had the time to do some work on it recently. Am planning on only lightly modding it with a DP and AP (stage 2) in the coming months.

    But I love perusing the forums, and am a member at wrxtuners and clubwrx as well. But..Hi!
