First:

XM Sattelite Radio. I had Sirius before, and it was OK. XM is MUCH better though! 2 thumbs up on it! Mounted IN the glovebox, as I said in another thread. It's OK, and I haven't tried using the glove box since, so it's no problem for me :).

Second:

DMS 40mm Gold's. They look pretty nice. Used, but refreshable. Gonna ship them to Canada on Sunday, to get rebuilt. Should cost significantly less to rebuild these than the HKS units I was looking at, as the HKS units were in worse shape. Plus, these are designed for the GC not the GD like the HKS ones.. And the GC shares the same strut assembly with the BC (The KYB AGX part numbers for the 94 Legacy Turbo is the same as that for a GC).

That's it. Sending them for rebuild on Sunday, and have them rebuilt. Have them dynoed, and have them cleaned up. Gonna spray the flaking painted part STi pink.

Enjoy.

Yep. Pink.

Why not? Blue would be cool, but pink is STi, lol. Plus, all high-temp enamel's that I've seen that are blue never look good.

Wooo, I ship the coilovers on Tuesday! Just gotta wait for them to get rebuilt, then I'll install them!

Cool. I'm still waiting for Prodrive to announce production and pricing on their active suspension.

Keep waiting. I hear 07 is when it's being considered. The date has been pushed back more times than GT4.

I was thinking about trying to get that setup, but for nearly $4000 for the setup, it's just not realistic :(
