spotted a 05 or 06 silver LGT with smoked tails, dark tint, and no grill on the mass pike going west between the 128 tolls and the Framingham exit. I was still tooling around in my STS prepared Celica, you also blew by me....

 

anyone want to buy a celica?

spotted a 05 or 06 OBP LGT debadged w/ dark tint and what looked like some suspension work on the Mass Ave bridge at 11:15 pm last night. I was tooling around in my STS prepared Celica so I didn't get a chance to wave, you just blew by me.

I'd like to put an ear to the Borla exhaust. I hear the Invidia quad tip a couple weeks ago so now I have something to compare to.

aaah alright, I'll have to keep an eye out. I don't get over that way very often, I used to work at the big abandoned construction site on Western Ave. See you at big daddy's

@ mrjk77

 

Where are you at in brighton, I don't know that I've seen you around town? I'm on Foster st.

how many of us are there? 3 and counting?

Spoted

... at Wentworth tech parking today

 

A fellow Wentworth-ian... I graduated in 2008. There are a ton of tuned subies hanging around there. I'm glad I don't have to park in that neighborhood anymore.

09_Red_GT Props to getting from Brighton center to Mattapan at that time in 25 minutes.

Spotted a black OBXT at Wobbly Barn on Friday night, Silver LGT going up Killington Road Sunday around 11:00 on Sunday, and another blue LGT on Rt 100 close to Pittsfield around 11:20 on Sunday

 

Vermont = Subie Country

Drafting a blue 05 or 06 LGT sedan with dark dark tint on the Mass Pike between the Framingham and 128 exits tonight around 5:15.

Parked in front of a black/salty Forester XT on Boylston St. near Fenway last night

I have a Thule, I wouldn't get anything else... My gf has a Yakima on her car and they're just not as well built or functional IMO...

 

I think the Yakima ski racks are a ton sleeker looking, plus if you have big snowboard bindings you can tilt the racks to get some extra clearance. It is a little bit of a hassle to take them on and off, but what rack system isn't. You only have to do that once a season anyways. Just my .02

Ski Racks =/= Fail

 

Ski Racks = Function

 

I love my Yakima rack set up. Almost every time I go skiing its with at least 3 people in the car, and all that equipment has no chance of fitting inside the car. I think I can fit 5 or 6 pairs of skis on my racks (Yakima Fat Cats)

 

I'm planning on picking up the bike racks come spring time.

I didn't think the conditions at Okemo were that great on Saturday. It was snowing but I didn't think any of it was actually sticking, it was just blowing around. By the afternoon there was a lot of ice. Everyone pushed all the snow to the edges of the trail, so I just made my way down that way. It's Northeast skiing, so I'm not disappointed but there were no real good opportunities to get any solid carving in.

 

Anyways... On my way back I saw a black leggy 2.5i pulling out of the Irving Station on RT-131 near I-91, New Hampshire vanity plates, I think it said "bar crawl"

It does look like Sunday is the better day now, especially in Maine. I'll still be at Okemo tomorrow.

I'll probably be there Friday and Saturday for the dump

 

How much is supposed to accumulate up north this weekend anyways? Everything I read just says snow showers, which makes it kinda sound like not much.

I'm trying to get up to Okemo on Sunday .

 

EDIT: After looking at the forecast I'm going up Saturday, everyone do your snow dance!

Okemo > Stratton

Dark Blue 4th Gen LGT, de-badged and not a crystal of salt on your car on 93-S yesterday around 5:20 pm.

Red 4th Gen LGT w/ Thule Racks going west on Washington St in Brighton at 4:35 last night. You had a little snow on top of your car too .

Maybe I did fall victim to marketing tactics, but I'm still comparing apples to apples, I have the same headlights in my Celica... Just my .02 take it or leave it.

found this to be somewhat amusing...http://www.carhidkits.com/images/philipsbox_5.jpg

 

is that an LGT on the box???http://www.carhidkits.com/index.php?main_page=popup_image_additional&pID=243&pic=2&products_image_large_additional=images/large/philipsbox_5_LRG.jpg

LGT headlights are NOT weak. They are an excellent projector design, way above average halogen lights.

 

seriously? I think our headlights are awful. The first night I drove my car I thought that both headlights were burnt out and just the DRL's were working. I replaced them with Sylvania Silver Star's, not much of better. My Celica's headlights are 3 times brighter, I barley ever use the brights in that car, where as I'm always using the brights in the LGT.

 

Would having dark tint you have on your windows effect how bright your headlights look? I have 35% on driver and passenger windows and 15% on the back 1/2.

 

I'm looking at HID kits now...

Here's my set up...

something looks funny with the fairing , it looks kinda concave... maybe its just the pictures but it looks like you may have swapped the inside hardware with the outside hardware... but i could be 100% wrong
