Thanks for the well-wishing guys. The motor is the L66 out of the Pilot and Ridgline. GM and Honda made a trade deal, saturn gets the 3.5l motor, and honda gets the Isuzu industrial diesel motors (GM owns Isuzu). It's the 3.5liter with SOHC Vtec. Think I should put a vtec emblem on her? Once the break-in period is through this thing is supposed to scoot. Auto week nocked out a 6.6sec 0-60 with my setup. We'll see. WES, I'll keep an eye out for you man. If you see a Pacific Blue RedLine in town honk at me. I'm the only one in contra costa co. as far as I know, so it should be me.

Oh yeah, and the car has a cadilac stearing wheel and seats out of the next generation RedLine which hasn't been released yet. My car is a parts *****.

What year was your WRX? Was it a Sedan or Wagon? I got that same shoddy 1st gear problem...will most likely be trading it in this year. Just don't know what to get yet. Maybe a 06 Wagon.
It was a 2002 Blaze Yellow sedan.

A good friend has one of those. There pretty sweet. His isn't the Redline, but you put in in 2 and floor it and it takes off. If I were buying a small SUV, It would be either a VUE V6 or a Forester Turbo.

Yeah man, I'm not going anywhere. I-Club, once you get to know enough people, is much more than just a WRX club for sure. I even plan on bringing my Satonda out to some local meets.

Nope, not me. Yeah, who knew they'd ever couple Saturns and body kits. Go figure!
