Tax time = mod time

Just got my tax return back and I just purchased the following and cannot wait to get everything installed.

Tanabe NF210 springs
Tokico Blue's
NGK Iridium IX plugs(mine only had about 40k on them, but whatever)
Eibach sway bar kit from Excelerate
RT CAT from Excelerate
Kaixen 5000k's from Excelerate

I'm stoked to see how my car responds to these mods on top of what I already have.

I almost forgot I also got a 450W Kenwood Monoblock amp and a "10 Eclipse aluminum sub in a sealed box. Not too big, not too heavy and nice tight vibrant bass.

It's times (tax time) like these when I'm glad to be an American! I suppose if you owe than this time of year sucks!

Why would you want to have loaned the government your money, interest free for a year, then celebrate when they give it back to you?

LOL, you are right, but it still feels great when you do get it back.

I'm with this guy. I plan to owe the feds as much as possible (without a penalty) so that I'm the one that gets to use the money all year, not them.

I agree with the others on the tax return (keep that money yourself throughout the year and invest it) but anyway...I have the same suspension setup and I LOVE IT. perfect ride height and comfort but still firm. I have 139000 on my original tranny we will see if mine last longer than yours!

Congrats on the mods. I can't wait to get mine back so I can get some mods and other things done.

Hopefully your tranny does last longer than mine did, only time will tell.
