only one way to find out about salinas, come on down and make a pass or two with these guys, I ain't gonna lie, these ****ers are fast, so you're gonna need some top end, but with your setup you should have enough, just gotta make sure you buy some nice rims and times to put the power to the ground.

your secret is safe with me, personally, I've been wanting an import to step up and take one of those guys out, they've been getting way too cocky, they do have fast cars though...

thank you for the support, I will drive my car up there instead of trailing it over, less bling and less intimidation if you know what a mean, not like the last time we went over, the car sits to high and the suspension is really but really stiff, the tires stick out a lit o bit, thinking of lowering the car two inches all around, and a roll cage would really bring peace in mind to me just to play it save

I'm guessing you're related to the Jesus guy with the GT35 sti, and there is a LOT more that he should've done to his car to make it fast. You can just slap some parts on, get it tuned and think you can run with the big boys. These cars around here run low 11s on the street setups they run on...they've got a **** load of top end, and unless you have a really really good launch, you're not going to beat them.
If you interested in knowing more, PM me or give me a call.

well not trying to sound like a big shoot but my car is a few 40 to 50 hp from hitting high 9's, my car is a few pounds lighter than mike's sti and he threw out low 10's on 518 hp, he was going to help me out with my setup but we started to disagree on choices so I desided to do it on my own, maybe I will go down there today with david to race them on my sti and see how fast are they, dont mind looking like an idiot just doing some recon firts lol

hmmmm, to be honest with you homie, your car will never touch the GST car, I think you have a little bit of a distorted view of what a 9 second car is about.
Again, I'm not being mean or acting stupid, I'm just saying it like it is. I highly doubt you know what it takes to put a car in the nines.
I may be talking out of my *** here cuz I only know what I've heard from Aaron and a few others, but it takes a whole hell of a lot to run nines in any car, let alone an awd subaru. Like I said, I'm pretty sure he's your brother, but Jesus' car was fast, but there was a few small things he could've done to make it sooo much faster.

Also I don't recall discussing any setups with anyone.

A few months ago on a 05 sti, same motor on my car but needs to be re-tunned, you drag race your 05 sti with the GT-40 garret, I do recall you stating that your car had 518 whp AND that you threw high 10's on the track but had diff. problems, if I am wrong I will take that back......

None of our cars run a GT40 either.
