I hope to have PSS9's on there by then, but we'll see. Shoot me a PM and let me know when you wanna meet up.
Thats great man, cant wait to see them. Technically Im still in white, Im just not running there anymore (Drove with about 5 instructors in the Black and Jack should sign me off pretty soon...he just cant believe Im here already after effectively starting in March...


You around any time this weekend?

I litterally got it last thursday and that was last weekend...but I was waiting for the pics...


As far as the break-in, I figure after 500 or so miles, the tranny is and diff are ready to go and you should just use the M as it should be used...most manufactures just like that as to make sure problems (if any) are discovered at lower speeds and so people NEW to "fast" cars (show me a toyta camry that calls for break-in) dont just rhomp on them and off themselves...
