Im heading to nashville, tn in a week and a half (oct.25-27) for import alliance, i dont know if anyone heard of it on here, but its a big car meet with over 6000 cars attending. Im coming from chicago, if you want to meet up in any of the in between states and cruise up there together let me know, just post below :d

 

I went a few years back when I had my STI. Good time and had a blast. Have fun man and take a lot of pictures.

 

ya for sure will do, first time there, i heard the bars are a great time, thats why were leaving friday lol, ill post as many pics as i can. you said you use to have an sti, did you trade it in on a max?

 

Yes I did. 400 hp at the crank and started to turn into a money pit. Have a 16 year old son and needed something reliable for next couple of years until I can get my next toy. Thinking about a Cadillac CTSV next go round

 

sigh, i love the way them scoobies sound and look, the ctsv is awesome, which one you looking at getting, 4, 2 door, or the wagon, the wagon is surprisingly the fastest

 

Still undecided right now. Going to have to wait a few years to se in my son is going to college or what not. I like the way all of the CTSV's look Here is a video of my STI I used to have.

 

agreed on the v's, they all look good, especially under the hood lol, i like the way you kept the sti looking original making it a kind of a sleeper, did you ever run it at the track?

 

STI and sleeper do not go together

 

Stock but the car was bought with 8000 miles on the clock. Cobb Access port Stage tune 2 I ran 9.00 in the 1/8

 

I'm in Nashville. Ill give you a few pointers about the area

1. Cops around here are BAD! Like getting a ticket for doing 2 over the speed limit bad

2. Its highly advised not to street race. The undercover cars are ridiculous, you'd never expect some of them

 

But a hatchback is more under the radar than a sedan with a huge wing on the back

 

I was there in my Evo. It was the best one yet. Had an AWD dyno too!

 

Where are the pictures at man?

 

I'm traveling right now. When I get home fri I'll upload some pics. An SC300 put down 908hp on the dyno that day

 

Pics from IA as promised. I traded my EVO 3 days later for the new 13 Maxima

 

white SC300 put down 908HP on the dyno and my buddy's 335i put down a disappointing 421HP

 

Do you mind if I ask why you got rid of the EVO? For me it was all about having a family car and a 350WHP STI was not a DD family car anymore. On a side note my very close friend has 1 of about 5 true EVO 7's in the country!

 

I got tired of dumping money into it. 600hp EVOs are not very DDable either. Lol. Plus the TC was on its way out and the wife said " no more money on the evo"

 

6,000 cars, eh?

 

yup. LOTS of cars. And an AWD dyno FTW! was the best one yet. I went to my first one a couple years ago in the same place at LP Field and it sucked. No vendors, just a bunch of Honda ricers. It has came a long way in a couple years. Lots of vendors, tents, food, bathrooms, etc. was a very good event.
