Thanks, Guys. I sold the rims to a local kid a few months ago he put them on his black Celica GT. They looked pretty hot on his car aslo.

so, did going back to stock height remind you of just how comfy the AWD ride is?

Quote, originally posted by drunkenvibe »so, did going back to stock height remind you of just how comfy the AWD ride is?Actually, yes it did. It is so much smoother with the stock height and the 16" wheels. I will go to 17" wheels at some point and switch out the struts/shocks to KYB GR-2 (
http://store.racinglab.com/kyb-gr2-set-156.html ) when the time comes. But I will be staying stock height from now on unless I can afford a set of Ceilca Tein-SS Coilovers somewhere down the line. And even then I would only drop it about an inch, so I may be just better off staying stock.

Hey BC you know a good place where I can find a SR intake?

by BlueCrush
Thanks, Guys. It looked better then but I am actually enjoying it more now due to the ride quality. Yeah, I'm getting old.Katscan: You are pretty limited for intakes. Cosmo is the only company that makes a short ram specifically for the '05-'06 with the DBW throttle. Shanemade put a Weapon-R Secret Intake on his '05 base Vibe. See his thread for where he got it and his installation:

Ok Brian, under the last motion blur photo. I see that you got a yellow top, but what is that chrome piece with the two hoses going to it?Oh yeah. very nice engine bay, very clean!
Re: (02csnow)

The yellow-top was last year, I have the stock battery in there again.What you see is a TRD Oil Catch can to keep oil and gunk from going back into the intake manifold. I have emptied it once a year since I have had it. I can't imagine all that crap going back in the the engine.And...Thanks!
