wish i had found this site sooner

what up guys, my name's kyle. I got my EJ8 used in feb 06 with 105k on it, and i've babied it ever since.

in the last few months i've gone through two cat-back exhausts, one header, two short rams and recently changed suspension (mod i'm most satisfied with Shoe) just because i got ignorant and started throwing money around on ebay crap.

right now i'm running stock with a weapon-R intake, oem replacement exhaust mani, greddy evo2 catback, oem struts (roughly 80k) and Tein S-tech lowering springs.


i know the springs and oem struts are a bad mix but it's just temporary (2-3 years Slap)

anyway to sum up future plans:

H22A, ported/polished head, bored cylinders, full stroker kit, valvetrain, CF hood and trunk along with 99-00 conversion, full suspension and a bunch of interior mods i'm still undecided on. when it's all said and done i'll be looking at a fresh coat of champagne.

big talk. realistically we're looking at 3-4 years at least. but hey, another year and i'm out of school then it's all downhill from there =)

RE: wish i had found this site sooner

First off, welcome to the site! It's good to have you here, and I hope you enjoy your stay as much as the rest of us do.

Sounds like you've got it all pretty well planned out, you've got a good list put together and I'm already picturing what it could look like in my head....Can't wait to see how she progresses in the next 3-4 years.

And...

I'll be the first to say it, get some pictures of her up in her current state! We ALL love pikcharz here!!! Wink
