Sup guys and gals,

I'm Erv, I drive an '06 STi and am building a '84 GSL-SE RX7. I have been racing(both legally and other)and working on cars for about 14 yrs. Even before I had a liscense. I am honestly mainly just signing up for something to do on night shift, but, I know a bunch of scoobie guys over here.

About the STi, it's a mildly modded car

255lph Walbro
Tial 44mm EWG
Hallman MBC
turbo back exhaust
TGV delete
Ported stock header
Tune
Uppipe exhaust leak
Downpipe exhaust leak
N1 Black racing wheels
Ferodo DS2500 pads
Eibach Pro race springs
Blown rear shocks
7 yr old all season tires
JDM red hazard button (it's the best)
Hella 400's
Rallyinnovations Pit manuever bar
Rally armor mud flaps
Duralast Gold battery
Custom Melted PCM harness

The RX7 is slow and is stock :D but missing a motor, interior...

I am into a little of everything as far as racing. Road racing, Auto X, Rally, Drag, Mile, and of course roll(as my username depicts)

thanks for the welcomes guys...

btw you must have some serious trolls to have such strict requirements for posting in other places

Revmaynard

Yea, we have quite a few. I hit ya with some reps so it should hopefully put you over the amount needed to post in other places. :goodjob:

Naw, mine is just fwd. The 4WD models are hard to find parts for typically, besides my color being my favorite and only offered on the 2wd. :D

Not a fan of mesh, but they really work well on that car

Thanks man. :goodjob: I've had four sets of different mesh wheels on it since I took the stock wheels off lol.

thanks guys, I imagine the street scene is pretty big over there. When the 7 is done, I'll have to bring it by, anything there that can run with a 900rwhp less than 2k lb car?

sorry guys, lost net for awhile, is anyone going to Montgomery IFO? If so stop by and say hi, our shop will be repping there. Don't want to break any rules here by advertising for free so I won't mention names or anything.

the RX7 is coming along but unfortunately won't be ready for the IFO event... shame, was really looking forward to putting down some low low 8's...
