Oh yeah. The Seattle freeze is a real thing. I didn't notice it when I first moved here because people aren't really rude, which is what I expected. It's just that people might take a mild interest in you, but it's really hard to actually hangout. Like Wykydtron said, it's like people just have no interest in interacting with you in their freetime. Yeah, I tried getting in contact with Ray from Autohero, but got no response. I need someone to modify my driver's door bar so it fits around my seat. I also now need a bash bar for the front of the car. I might have to just order one of the Street Faction ones. Traffic is killer. I think it's because most people here can't merge to save their lives. |

Oh man, don't get me started with the merging skills I have seen here. The 405 is a mess because you have people trying to 'catch' their exit because they can only escape the toll lanes at specific spots. So put merging skills and exit rush together and you have the Perfect Traffic.....lol

Of course, because indicating means I have to yield to you right?!?!?! I hate that.
That is why I love driving older vehicles sometimes. I'm in a 22 year old car, you're in a 2 year old car AND will be at fault if you hit me. A game of Chicken you say? Challenge accepted.....lol Ok, so who's car is or will be ready this summer?

If by ready you mean runs and drives, mine is/will be. It'll still look bad though haha. Looks like Wykydtron might be getting close on his KA-t. Welcome Tia, you don't see many CA18's around. |

Mine looks ok, but damn, everything else is messed up. But you're right, Wky is killing it with his boost build.

From what I've heard about sponsorship, I doubt that I'll ever want to be sponsored.
What I was told is that basically, you don't own your car any more. Meaning, you have to go to every meet or gathering there is because you're under obligation. I might be wrong though.

it depends on the company, the parts, etc. Usually, they require you to go to a set amount of shows, like the main big ones of the year in WA. Represent their brand tastefully, and give information about the parts. you definitely own the car, and usually the parts. half the time they just do partial sponsorships, where you get heavily discounted prices. Also you have to have a very nice car already with proof you have a high visibility, respected car that either wins awards or has the potential to. All I'm looking for is discounted paint and hopefully a cage, where people can use the car to showcase a new company or their skills to bring in business. I'd also like MCA Suspension, once the car is lookin sexy, to pick me up as a sponsor car so I can showcase their suspension in the USA since they're not well known. but we'll see.

Gonna go to Final Bout SSW at the end of the month and hopefully a few cruises with Seattle Cars and Coffee guys over the next month or two.

I have a friend with a lex, so I might hit him up and go on that cruise to see how that crowd rolls.
When are the Seattle Cars and Coffee cruises? I can't find any info about their schedule.

If you join the FB group and go to the events section all the cruises and meets are listed there. They have a weekly Sunday meet in the south end and all the guys seem pretty cool. No Nissans really, mainly European cars but still fun to drive with none the less. |

Wicked work pimp.
I can't take it any more, I'm going 5 lug. Should be buying the hubs either this evening or tomorrow. Hopefully I'll have the rims and rotors by the time they arrive. I tried to stay original base model 4 lug, but this car's shape is killing me and 9 wide in the front with that little poke would bug the DNA out of me.
