more people than you would think - "is it an STI?"...Im sure all wrx owners can back me up on this one, lol.
Me- "NO...damnit"

Everybody - "you need wheels"

Other dumb questions...
"what is it?"
"is it turbod?"
"if its turbod...then where is the WRX badge?"

Everyone: Is it a GT?
ME: Nope just a Sixer

Everyone: Do you have a supercharger
ME: No its just the shitty ford power steering pump in the sixers


1 person said this. Man you must make mad smoke with those wide tires granted I had 315's on at the time. I laughed and said do you think a sixer can break traction with 315's?

no im not "calling you out" i have better things to do than talk shit to someone in hopes of mad tyte racing with my boyz

and congrats on having built that car. i wouldnt be taking any credit for it if i was you.

and thanks for making the assumption that my car wasnt bought by me. several people on here can back me up when i say both of my camaros ive had were paid by me in full, in stock condition. and everything on my car was done by me and a freind

-and i still think a b-whatever on stock internals with no intercooler at 15psi is not fast.
