Do you guys here in KC ever get together for drives or other activities?

I saw that one too the other day over in the Longview region.

it was that candy looking blue, not the shiny looking kind. Stood out for sure. Is anyone here planning on going to the upcoming autox? last one of the year!

Sometimes we get together in random parking lots and stare at our own cars...

So I did not know this but apparently there is a DIY auto repair shop in Olathe... Would have been nice to know about when I got my exhaust. Oh well, I guess that's where I'll be going for my coilovers (probably this weekend) and at the same time help my friend/roommate put on his Tomei exhaust on his Evo 10!

Edit: How do you guys feel about spacers? And do you think they are a good idea? Still saving up for the wheels I want so in the mean time I want my car to not look like a sunken ship.

I am running 15 mil spacers in the rear of mine. never had an issue with em.

side note, who wants to get together for a drive soon? what weekend would work for everyone?

I used to run 20 mm spacers all around on my stock wheels with swifts...looked good, would have even went up to 25 on the backs to make it look perfect.

I tend to stay away from spacers because I try and stick as close to stock as possible for wheel offsets...go too low in the front in offset (or add too thick of a spacer) and you'll lose some steering feel. on CERTAIN cars you'll prematurely wear down your bearings by going too low on offset :rolleyes:

I'm down for a drive soon! Can we do it this Sunday around 8 am in independence at the autox course? ;) I'm really wanting to see more 370s out there!

I would be game for a drive in 2 weeks. The weekend of Halloween would be cool. I was going to TX that weekend but bought the car instead.

edub370 10-23-2014 11:43 AM

I have Spacers been running them for a year. and yeah i installed my exhaust at that DIY place took me 40 minutes.

Hm... I think I will look into getting 15mm all around for stock then... or do you guys think 15/20 would look better?

I would go with 20 front and 25 rear like recommended above ^^
