part out for sharks season tickets?

A lot of things have come up for me to decide on this.

1) Smog check coming up and don't want to deal with the hassle of putting my stock exhaust and intake back on, and then putting back my aftermarkets. I know the intake is a 10min job, but still.

2) A couple DUIs recently from my friends with modded cars. Its a attention getter. I don't want to get lectured about driving drunk. I think people that do it should be penalized to the full extent of the law. But, if someone had a few drinks within a few hours...you know what, this could be an entirely different thread all together. It draws attention to yourself. Speeding ticket, DUI, no proof of *pick anything*, ticket for aftermarket _____, tint, whatever...done with 2

3) I want sharks season tickets.

4) I want a more comfortable ride. My Stance are getting a bit too stiff for my liking of daily driving. I went down to San Diego to a hockey bar to watch USA vs Canada. 7hrs on thursday night and another 7hrs sunday afternoon. Not the greatest feeling in a car that feels like youre driving on a cobble stone walkway...constantly.

5) Might sell my car soon, and want to sell it stock. I'm not one of those idiots that thinks "oh, I invested $10,000 into it so it must be worth $10,000 more."

What do you guys think? swap the exhaust and intake, smog it, put stuff back on, and stfu? Or, go back to stock, sell the aftermarket, and watch the sharks get the cup? I'm open to suggestions too. Flame suit on...

Its seems like you want to sell the car anyway since its obviously causing you stress, if something you're suppose to enjoy is just stressing you out you have a problem and need to change things.

Also, you might want to see if you will want season tickets for the future and not just for a few years since they are a big investment. You will also want to figure out what car you will want once the wrx is gone.

I would ponder it for a few weeks since if you change you'll mind its going be expensive.

hmmm, stop drinking and driving or make make my car less conspicuous?? PART OUT!!

Not gonna bust your *****, I'll admit I picked up a 'dewy' like 10 years ago, yeah I admit it, Im not proud, just one of those "I thought I could make it the mile and a half home!" things you dont plan on it but it just seems like a good idea at the time

Anyhow, I wasnt in a conspicuous car, it was a bone stock 92 Honda Accord. In my duo class EVERYONE there was also driving a normal boring car. Long story short, just DONT drink and drive, your car is NOT what they are looking at when you get popped, TRUST me!

That said, if you do part out, what wheels are those??

I have season tix. Let me know. Ruehl knows I got the bomb diggity seats, and vip passes that go with them.

But yes, as usual I expect chocking in the first round, def the second if they face hillard again. He is an awesome goalie.

i was wondering when the first person would ask what mods I have. Not for sale yet but 18" Rota P1.

I love my car. I love the community. It's the time and financial investment I don't want to deal with. I love the fight club quote "the things you own, end up owning you"

I love the fact I don't have any more car payments. Some of the cars I have my eye on: Audi S5, M3, or IS-F. I have a sports bike so I could save the extra $15-20Gs and get A5 or 335. no IS250 or 350

Sharks are due for a cup and I want to be there when it happens

I think someone touched it perfectly already...

If you're not happy with something that should make you happy and it's stressing you out then it's not worth it... These cars or cars in general are there to make YOU happy. Even if you do sell the car, i'm sure your a great guy, you're always welcomed in this community. Most people i've met on this board have been open to whatever car you drive, as long as you give them respect youll get respect...

I'd say just think about it. Are you gunna be happy with your rex now, or more happy when you don't have it anymore... which ever you choose gl and i'm sure you'll pick the right one.

Just my 2 cents

yea ruehl did make a great point. Its not stressing me out to the point where I NEED to get rid of it. Just a few things that came up that made me think about the route im going with my car.

Another option i was thinking about was to lease another car in the mean time. Keep the subie as my weekend warrior and tahoe trips.

BTW the spring rate/height is 8k/6k

We need to get some teal "We Believe!" shirts for all these "fans"
