You know how small the island is.

Well, obviously I'm in Joke harbor with my '77 Galant Wagon, my '76 Coupe is down at Boss Innovations currently, hope to have that back on the road and 4g63 powered before Summer. The wagon is all stock for now with a 3spd auto and 4g52b, use it mostly for a DD, but I guarantee it has less miles than your DSM making it still somewhat new.

You still won't see a GVR4 in person unless at the junkyard, I trailered mine off to Arlington Pick n Pull in November, stripped down as much as I could (no motor,no trans,diff,interior).

my dsm has 130 on the ODO and 1200 on the motor :p

if anyone wants to check out my build page: http://www.dsmtuners.com/forums/dsm-build-journals/420984-my-6-bolt-swap-my-99gsx.html LOL comon guys! where are the dsmers on whidbey! i guess none of you use this forum haha
 
I don't think any of them do and I only knew of one or two, but a buddy of mine is looking to pick up a 2g GST, so there will be another future dsmer in Oak Harbor soon. Wagon has 66k on the odo right now, had 54k when I picked it up then drove it from SC to here, has yet to roll over for the first time.

ill race your waggz :)
 
I actually live on Camano Island but would be able to make it out there Friday Saturday or Sunday on most weeks if there was a steady amount of people who showed up. I could care less if they are all dsm's as long as everyone is there to talk cars and actually has a slight clue. Oh and my car is not anything special in HP, pretty simple t28,link, bolt onsand a brembo swap after super bowl weekend:sneaky:

Here's a pic

That's odd. When I bought them I went to discount and they said they were discontinued so they would have to call drag and see if any were left:hmm:.

Correct, there is no longer "drag", they were bought by XXR. Though, their rims are similar to many others. There is currently a set of drags or torque look-a-like posted on craigslist. Came off a friends talon.

You have me beat Tim, mine has 81k and the evo has 86k LOL
 
Is your dsm running currently? That evo looks sick. If I'm ever down that way this summer I'll let you know.
Thanks, the evo should be going under quite a few changes soon.

Well, it never really runs great haha. But yes, i ran into issues with my precision setup.

I'm going to throw a 16g on it and try and run some good times. If i end up keeping it i'll go FP 3065 but if not i'll sell it and mod the evo. Although the evo is already a blast to drive.

We're going to be having a meet here within the next few of weeks over at BOSS. Keep your eyes open, hoping to have a pretty good crowd.

I will. My brembos will be on by then so I'll be anxious to drive it down.
 
BBQ with my Yellow car down at the shop! You're a little far to making it up this way to hang for a evening, Ricky LOL.
 
You would have to take the ferry from Mukilteo over to the island and while you would be near Urban because he lives on the south side of the island, I'm an hour north of him. On top of that, you will probably spend an hour or two just waiting to get on the ferry, going to the island.

You could always drive around, it would take the same amount of time to get to the same spot, maybe a little more or a little less than the ferry if you happen to make the ferry at the right time, but it can be a gamble. So I never take the Ferry when I leave the island, plus I'm too far north for the Ferry to even be worth my time when Deception Pass is only 10minutes away.
 
there was a bomb threat called in on the ferry yesterday LOL that was the an hr wait.. usually you can get right on unless there is a line. you can check the ferry cams on their website. my dsm is still in the shop til the 4th, i dont want all you dsmers commin up here if i cant attend hahaha hey ricky, how are you keepin that carbon hood on there with no hood pins??? i just bought some but im dreading having to drill in my brand new carbon creations hood... sugguestions? stealthy pins? what you got goin on

mukilteo ferry takes 15 mins to cross btw.. and there is a ferry every half hour
