    5th Gen Compliments

    So I just put my Corazon Hood Scoop on and decided to take the family out to Olive Garden for dinner. Walked out and noticed another Subi decided to park next to me! When I got home, I checked FB and noticed that I was tagged in our local subi FB group! Made me feel good with the sweetness that was thrown my way! Here is a few snap shots of it...

    I ordered mine. At the dealership, I drove the NA Legacy for size and fitting purpose and to get the "ok" from the wife, then went back and drove a WRX for the power and stick idea - with brother and without the wife. Then took a leap of faith and ordered the build with the color and extra stuff (puddle lights, all weather mats, and short shifter) that I wanted. Waited 9 weeks till it was in my hands.

    This makes me cry every time I read it. And being in Texas... I can understand. If its been posted before, sorry, but then its great that its being read again!

     

    "TEXAS CHILI COOKOFF"

     

    (If you can read this whole story without tears of laughter running down your cheeks then there's no hope for you! *Note: Please take time to read this slowly. If you pay attention to the first two judges, the reaction of the third judge is even better! For those of you who have lived in Texas, you know how true this is. They actually have a Chili Cook-off about the time the Rodeo comes to town. It takes up a major portion of the parking lot at the Astrodome.

     

    The notes are from an inexperienced Chili taster named "FRANK", who was

    visiting Texas from the East Coast:

     

    Frank: "Recently, I was honored to be selected as a judge at a chili

    cook-off. The Judge #3 called in sick at the last moment and I happened

    to be standing there at the judge's table asking for directions to the

    Budweiser truck, when the call came in. I was assured by the other two

    judges (Native Texans) that the chili wouldn't be all that spicy and,

    besides, they told me I could have free beer during the tasting, so I

    accepted."

     

    Here are the scorecards from the event:

     

    Chili # 1 Mike's Maniac Mobster Monster Chili:

    Judge # 1 -- A little too heavy on the tomato. Amusing kick.

    Judge # 2 -- Nice, smooth tomato flavor. Very mild.

    Judge # 3 -- (Frank) Holy shit, what the hell is this stuff? You could

    remove dried paint from your driveway. Took me two beers to put the

    flames out. I hope that's the worst one. These Texans are crazy.

     

    Chili # 2 Arthur's Afterburner Chili

    Judge # 1 -- Smoky, with a hint of pork. Slight jalapeno tang.

    Judge # 2 -- Exciting BBQ flavor, needs more peppers to be taken

    seriously.

    Judge # 3 -- Keep this out of the reach of children. I'm not sure what

    I'm supposed to taste besides pain. I had to wave off two people who

    wanted to give me the Heimlich maneuver. They had to rush in more beer

    when they saw the look on my face.

     

    Chili # 3 Fred's Famous Burn Down the Barn Chili

    Judge # 1 -- Excellent firehouse chili. Great kick. Needs more beans.

    Judge # 2 -- A bean less chili, a bit salty, good use of peppers.

    Judge # 3 -- Call the EPA. I've located a uranium spill. My nose feels

    like I have been snorting Drano. Everyone knows the routine by now. Get

    me more beer before I ignite. Barmaid pounded me on the back, now my

    backbone is in the front part of my chest. I'm getting shit-faced from

    all of the beer.

     

    Chili # 4 Bubba's Black Magic

    Judge # 1 -- Black bean chili with almost no spice. Disappointing.

    Judge # 2 -- Hint of lime in the black beans. Good side dish for fish or

    other mild foods, not much of a chili.

    Judge # 3 -- I felt something scraping across my tongue, but was unable

    to taste it. Is it possible to burn out taste buds? Sally, the barmaid,

    was standing behind me with fresh refills. That 300-LB. bitch is

    starting to look HOT ... . . just like this nuclear waste I'm eating! Is

    chili an aphrodisiac?

     

    Chili # 5 Linda's Legal Lip Remover

    Judge # 1 -- Meaty, strong chili. Cayenne peppers freshly ground, adding

    considerable kick. Very impressive.

    Judge # 2 -- Chili using shredded beef, could use more tomato. Must

    admit the cayenne peppers make a strong statement.

    Judge # 3 -- My ears are ringing, sweat is pouring off my forehead and I

    can no longer focus my eyes. I farted and four people behind me needed

    paramedics. The contestant seemed offended when I told her that her

    chili had given me brain damage. Sally saved my tongue from bleeding by

    pouring beer directly on it from the pitcher. I wonder if I'm burning my

    lips off. It really pisses me off that the other judges asked me to stop

    screaming. Screw those rednecks!

     

    Chili # 6 Vera's Very Vegetarian Variety

    Judge # 1 -- Thin yet bold vegetarian variety chili. Good balance of

    spices and peppers.

    Judge # 2 -- The best yet. Aggressive use of peppers, onions, and

    garlic. Superb!

    Judge #3-- I shit myself when I farted and I'm worried it will eat

    through the chair. No one seems inclined to stand behind me except that

    slut Sally. She must be kinkier than I thought. Can't feel my lips

    anymore. I need to wipe my ass with a snow cone.

     

    Chili # 7 Susan's Screaming Sensation Chili

    Judge # 1 -- A mediocre chili with too much reliance on canned peppers.

    Judge # 2 -- Ho hum, tastes as if the chef literally threw in a can of

    chili peppers at the last moment. I should take note that I am worried

    about Judge #3. He appears to be in a bit of distress as he is cursing

    uncontrollably.

    Judge # 3 -- You could put a grenade in my mouth, pull the pin, and I

    wouldn't feel a thing. I've lost sight in one eye, and the world sounds

    like it is made of rushing water. My shirt is covered with chili, which

    slid unnoticed out of my mouth. My pants are full of lava like poop to

    match my shirt. At least during the autopsy, they'll know what killed

    me. I've decided to stop breathing, it's too painful. Screw it; I'm not

    getting any oxygen anyway. If I need air, I'll just suck it in through

    the 4-inch hole in my stomach.

     

    Chili # 8 Tommy's Toe-Nail Curling Chili

    Judge # 1 -- The perfect ending, this is a nice blend chili. Not too

    bold but spicy enough to declare its existence.

    Judge # 2 -- This final entry is a good, balanced chili. Neither mild

    nor hot. Sorry to see that most of it was lost when Judge # 3 passed

    out, fell over and pulled the chili pot down on top of himself. Not sure

    if he's going to make it. Poor dude, wonder how he'd have reacted to

    really hot chili?

    Went to pick up lunch from Jimmy Johns for the fam on Saturday. As I got the front spot (lucky living I guess) and walked in, two of the guys that worked there just started eye-banging the car. I paid the chick behind the counter and as I walked out, one guy said "That's an awesome car". I said, "thanks, I'm able to get groceries reeeeeeeealy fast". Fun.

    ISC is generic 'your logo here' crap from Taiwan if you're lucky and China if you're not.

     

    Yes, main company is in Taiwan. I love that the distribution store is here in America, I have called and chatted very well with them, if I need parts to rebuild or whatnot its an easy ship. I read many reviews, forums, etc about them and to my acceptance, they have met it, I also like that they are active on forums. Of course you will find people who have the opposing view - (which is good, if there were none then competition would no long exist) just like there are people who speak very poorly of Subaru cars for an example. Are there better coils? Yes! But these are great IMO. I recommend them for now, as I have yet to put on 1ks of miles on my set.

    How you liking them? Worth the money? And what setup did you get? Street, street sport, or track?

     

    I like them a bunch. (they are also really beautiful) I ended up having to buy the longer bodies than what originally came with it because of the drop - call them up, they are reeeeeeally easy to talk to and can modify it to your "wants". I'm impressed - better than the stocks w/eibachs that I ran for over 75K miles.

     

    Plus, they make them here - rebuilds, adjustments, etc... no worries.

     

    I did hunting on them with the Nissan/Infinity rides and other Subaru applications to check how they came across - made me more comfortable in choosing them.

     

    - Plus, now I can say my a$$ is golden (coilovers with their LCAs) :lol::lol:
