I had only been driving a stick about a week when school started up, and I got stuck in a line from the 1st to 4th floor one morning. Needless to say, I learned reallllly quickly, haha.

If I see you, I'll give you a wave! Just let me know when you guys get together, those parking garages make pretty sweet places for a shoot at night... if I don't sell my baby by then

Good to see some 8thers that go to MSU! Pretty cool!

Yeah I got the R18 mainly because insurance was cheaper, better gas millage, and cheaper gas. I know how you feel about door dings. First week I was down here, someone in my apartment complex put a giant scratch on my front bumper that went though the paint to the bumper. I used some touch up paint but it still looks blah. Usually when I park on campus it's out in the far lot by cherry, as far away from other cars as possible ha.

We should be getting together for a shoot pretty soon. We took pics on top of one of the parking garages last time. I would like to do that again, and possibly find a park or something. I'm also a sucker for loading docks at night :P .

Sweet dude. I'll help you put those lights in if you want. The fenders are a ***** to get undone and pulled back. And I can't remember if I had to move my battery to get to them...that might have been for the DRLs. That axleback is gonna sound good.

Meeeeehhhhhhhhhhh. I'm not too keen on getting to the headlights through the wheel wells or taking off the bumper. There was a DIY to install HID's by taking out the battery, coolant overflow reservoir (I think), and the neck of the windshield washer fluid reservoir. I'm down for an extra set of hands. I think Marty wants to help too.

DIY: How to install your xenondepot hids

Glen_PxC · 10-26-2010, 04:37 PM

Well the way I did them you didn't have to take off the bump, just the wheel well liner. But that way looks easier if You can get to then through there.

metalmatt · 10-27-2010, 10:31 PM

haha, I ran into that other white FA5 Si today. He got up next to me on grand near the tunnel, and he waved at me, because he hadn't any tint either. He's in his 50's..

What am I driving here?!?! haha.

Dougxdrums · 10-28-2010, 01:24 AM

There are a couple of old dudes with FG1's around town, one has JDM badges. I was confused, but didn't question it.

Nice!! I like the habanero on the FA5, I was minutes away from buying the same color, only on an FG2. Wessel just didn't want to budge on the price. Now that I think about it, I'm glad I didn't. It looks much better on the FA5.
