What's up guys! Sorry for the late response! I've been MIA haha. It was indeed Andy's shop. Been taking my cars there for years! Great eye.

I'm located in South SJ near Capitol and Hillsdale. Don't see too many WRXs in my neck of the woods. I work in Los Gatos and see far more around here. Mostly high school kids though.

Hopefully I'll be able to make it out to one of the meets soon. I had a G35 a few years back and there was a pretty good size club with regular meets in the Bay Area. It seems that SoCal gets all the fun with Subie meets.

Thanks again for the compliments! She's now stage 1+ with AEM intake, and will soon have a TP stage 1 tune.

Hope to see you guys around!

You're pretty close to me. I'm near Branham and Pearl. If you see a lifted grey Hawkeye wagon on white wheels, that's me.

In regards to meets, it seems like the Wednesday night Fremont meet is the biggest one although I've never made it out to one.
