Hello everyone,

Got news yesterday that I’ll be off to Cold Lake :help in June for my posting, so I’d thought I’d join.

I own an 02 blackout Spec.

Ahh Cold Lake is not THAT bad. It is kind of a hick town still.

Welcome to Alberta.

:lol:

So far its been a great paperweight. Just waiting for the snow to melt so I’ll probably get it on after spring break.

BTW, did you just use the stock spring bolts for the connection to the header?

I didn’t use the spring bolts on mine, they’re just regular straight bolts. Of course, I have MMI’s, so that makes a difference in the engine movement too…

I didn’t use the spring bolts for mine, I believe I sent you a couple of extra bolts that I used to attach it to the header, but I could be wrong (It’s been a while since I sent that to you) What other mods do you have done to your spec?

No, I didn’t recieve any hardware. I bought new ones from the dealer.

I have a bunch of parts awaiting installation. After my March break, or when the snow melts, I will slap them all on:

SSA Header  
MR Midpipe  
Stromung Catback  
Hella Horns  
Nismo RSB  
BFG KDW2’s.

:E

Edit: Just ordered ES MMI’s. Its gonna take forever to install all these parts all at once. :rolleyes: Probably will feel like a whole difference car, mabye. 😛

You want cheap insurance than you want to go to sask! But its still not bad here compared to elsewhere. Anyway when you get here I hope you enjoy it!

Insurance here is cheaper than BC and Sask if you have a clean driving record. My premium for my car here in Alberta is nearly $500 less than a car I had in Vancouver 3 years ago that was worth $800. Then again, I’m older than the average dude on here too! 😃
