    Portland, Oregon!

    Okay.

    As a city of 2.5 Million or so, there has got to be more than 4 people from this area.

    People wake up!

    I'm new here, and wanting to get some help/advice, friends with the same car(s) as myself, and just hang with a bunch of chillax dudes!

    But this thread seems dead to the world....

    *whistles a little tune*

    Well, I'm off till someone replies...
    If you're not at redline, you're not driving.

                there's quite a few locals out here in the pdx area and a few in eastern oregon. we have a good bunch of friendly folks. either TRY and organize a meet, or wait for the Corksport Show n Shine (if they do it anymore).. bunch of folks go there. I know there are a few of us who can be seen at the drags at PIR from time to time, as well as playing in the dirt at the rallyX's..

                watcha got in mind?

                  Honestly, I just need some help with random stuff. Like figuring out how to wire up my new fogs, what kind of lowering springs will work for a DD, and how much it'd cost over all, to do a turbo bp/FMIC swap.

                    Bpt323 is selling some lowering springs for cheap and a vj20 setup would probably cost around 700-1000 bucks I'd say

                        i'm looking hard at these springs.

                        megan racing
                        Color: Orange

                        - Lower rate: 2" Front, 1.7.5-2" Rear

                        - Springs rate: 300F & 250R

                        - MSRP: $149

                        I used to retail their subaru stuff and was pretty impressed. i'd run them again.

                              I've had pretty much every brand of spring out there.

                              B&G on my 1999 Legacy Outback
                              Eibach prokits on my 2002 WRX Wagon
                              Tein H-Techs on my 2005 LGT wagon
                              Tein basic coilovers on my 2008 suzuki sx4
                              H&R on the same Suzuki SX4
                              2000-2004 Subaru Outback Megan coilovers modified to fit a 2008 STi Stage Rally car.

                              To be honest, after seeing how the megan stuff held up to Oregon Trail 2008 (we got 3rd overall) they get my thumbs up.
