Hey, just seeing if anyone local has a couple things, heres what I'm looking to buy. O, this for my 03 wrx -skid plate -s202 wing(lol just thought I'd try) -15" tyres -gauge pod for glove box or 52mm gauge cups -gm boost solenoid -Tactrix cable -step colder plugs -catch can/ something to use for coolant overflow I need something cheap for rally x thrashing. They need to fit on 15" wheels from the old legacys 83projectbrat has dimensions I'm sure. I just want something that will get me to and from a few rally x events and have plenty of bite left in them for the dirt. lmk what you've got
Define cheap. I know that used 15" rally tires can be had from CPD racing locally for ~$25/tire (depends on condition). They would put you in a higher class, but the nice thing is that they're pretty much indestructable at rally-x speeds.
Umm, depends. Probably not DOT rated. You wouldn't want to run them on the highway any more than strictly necessary since it chews them up fast. They're a put-on-the-car-at-the-event kind of thing.
anyone got there phone number? I'm not quite sure I want something like that, I was hoping more for some general use tires to rack miles on and have decent bite
If you want a cheap tire that's general purpose, but has a fairly open tread pattern that will grip well for rally-x, look at the Douglas Xtra-Trak at Wal-Mart (seriously!). Mine (14") ran just about $40 ea. It's a cheap all-season tire so don't expect anything special for typical driving. But the tread pattern is open enough to give pretty good traction on dirt/gravel. I've won a rally-x overall with them. Wal-Mart sells (or used to, don't know currently) a damage protection plan that costs like $12.50 a tire, but it includes the mounting/balancing/valve stems and so ends up only costing like $2.50 a tire. Well worth it for a tire you're going to beat on. And they honor the warranty no questions asked (even when you show up with a tire full of muddy gravel...)

Talk to justin about the skid plate they were doing a GB on grimmspeed plates. do you know what the number is on the step colder plugs? i have a box of NGK 7Es at home.
I bought a GM BCS at the dealer for $26. I also just got some plugs, a step colder at NAPA. They are <$2 a pop. NGK BKR7E11
I got my step colder plugs at checker...after arguing with the guy about going colder because of turbo, after i proved him wrong he ordered me 4 LOL
^ check out primitive racing then. i have their skid plate and it works GREAT! you may ask about getting a front lip put on it for extra protection. but i am not sure how the wrx plate differs from teh GC plate.
