Were you heading southbound on Union just past Filmore at about 5:30 on Monday in semi-thick traffic? If so that black WRX that was in the left lane next to you was me =).
I tried to get your attention but it looked like you were looking a little apprehensively out of the corner of your eye at my car so I couldn't really get your attention [heh].
If that was you then .. "hey".

does your car have gunmetal wheels on it? Or do you go to uccs by chance? I see this nice black one at school all the time.

2000SIVTEC - Yah I am currently taking a couple of classes at UCCS. I almost always park in the free parking/gravel lot. There is usually a pretty clean looking blue SI on the way to campus (in that first pay paved lot). I am assuming this is you?
I also do have gunmetal rims so maybe you have been seeing my car? I have one sticker on the car in the front bumper that says SubySports

Hey Ernest-
I don't know if you remember me. But last year a pretty big group of us met up at ESpeed and then went down to Pueblo. There was you, another black WS6 with gears, John, and a bunch of other people.
I went down with my stock WRX at the time. And actually I wouldn't mind doing a quick run with ya :). I just got my car tuned with everything on it and I would really like to know how I would stand up to some of the "big boys" around town.
Here is a link to my dyno :): http://www.djcc.com/dave/cobbdyno.jpg
Now remember that there is a 25% drivetrain loss in my car so that puts it near 350hp and 300ftlb at the crank. I am just curious as too what kind of power your car is making these days?

Yeah I remember you...tall, goofy looking guy? no, j/k LOL!
How did you dyno an AWD car? Disconnect the driveshaft?
Currently, I almost double both of your dyno numbers. :)

Hey hows it going! That was me, I was heading to pick up my girlfriend. I was hoping you were going my way ;). Clean car, I was wondering if you were here on the board.

SC-MECHAM-WS6 - Yah that's me... the tall goofy guy ;). Cobb Tuning in Texas has a 4wd mustang roller dyno so it wasn't too hard. Just drive the car on, strap it down and go.
Since you have nearly 2x the power I do we HAVE to go from a stop... so I can use my little bit of advantage with my AWD ;).
99SIVTEC - Yah I wasn't sure if it was you or not until I saw the sticker on the side window for this board. I tried to get my passenger to get your attention but you were just a little bit too far in front of me .... becuase of the traffic everyone [heh] :).
See ya around I guess.

Such a small world isnt it....

You seem to want to race so bad, so how about we race daily drivers.

That is his daily driver I do believe.
Dallas J

No its not...He has a sentra se-r. That would be a good race between him and the Neon depending on his mods.

I thought you wanted to run the hatch :)
so the se-r is the daily driver....

Man I love the springs, if you all are ever bored, we should find something to do. I'm always lookin to get outa the house, and I love hanging out with other people in the springs with fast cars :)
Also I have a wrx too (sortof, long story, sortof) if you ever wanna get together to work on them, or just cruise around dropping some jaws or something, lemme know ;)

rico_00si - it could have been me going by. I do drive by UCCS quite a bit actually. It's not a blow off valve either... it's just the stock recirc valve. The AEM CAI amplified the sound quite a bit.
SC-Mecham - You think I would beable to hold you off all the way until 2nd gear :)? BTW what is your fastest time slip? How much power were you making with that timeslip? Just curious. I have found that hight hp is nice but traction is even nicer [heh]. Oh and whats this about the WS6 not being your daily driver :)?
Hey I was wondering when and if HAI board is going to have a meet? Just curious

Number 1 - It is a 200SX SE-R not a SENTRA!
Number 2 - No my WS6 is not my daily driver, it is a 98 with only 20k on the odo.
Number D - "Just Bring IT!" "If you smell, what my WS6 is cook'n!"
My 200SX is bone stock, I have a thing about modifying ones daily driver, but thats just me.
DallasJ - Sounds like a good race except you have to run as much boost as I am running. :)
David - My fastest time is mid 12's and I blew the clutch that race so no 4th gear. This was last year and I was down 8 hp and 40 tq from my last dyno.
