Moving To Bay Area this Saturday

Hey everyone, I'm 18 and currently live in Seattle. I'll be moving to Woodside on Saturday to live while going to school at Sequoia Automotive Institute in Fremont. I have a 96 L 2.2L, nothing fancy but hey, it's paid for and a Suby. It didn't seem like there were many subarus down there last time I was down, at least not like up here. In Seattle suabrus are like bimmers. Anyway, I just wanted to introduce myself, and hopefully I'll be able to make it out to some meet ups. Oh, BTW, the road I'm living on, Skyline Blvd. is an absolute MUST DRIVE!

Ryan

I dunno about cops, but there are bad drivers and lots of cyclers....especially on Old La Honda on Weekends.

I guess I'll take off that APC windshield banner before I move...j/k Thanks for the warm welcome everyone! Just curious, do you guys see any L's around that actually have had some things done to them? Seems like many of you are WRX/STi drivers by looking at the classifieds, much "L Love"" in the Bay Area?

Oh man. The fun things you can do with an L. There's enough WRX and RS owners around here selling off their stock parts that you can do some really nice upgrades on your L.

Haha, did you miss the part where I am going to be a STUDENT....That means limited $$$ (But yes an engine swap would be sweet). I'd really like a set of stock WRX rims though! That'll be the first thing I look for. I have a WRX muffler, 18mm RSB (going to go for solid endlinks soon), Eibach Prokit on RS struts, and a K&N panel filter w/ snorkectomy. I think some powdercoated gunmetal WRX rims might look pretty good on my ride, maybe even leave em stock, I really wish I could spring for the wheels ommmjido is selling. Argh, maybe someone with new wheels will want to rid themselves of their stockers...CHEAP! Thanks again for the warm welcome, hopefulyl see you guys around!
