Ray's 03 Evo 8 Let there be new wheels - TriStateTuners.com :: Home of Tristate Auto Enthusiast

RayArroyo · 12-22-2006, 03:01 AM

the car was bought in june of 2006, she had a chevy cobalt ss and hated it, ever since 03 she had been telling me that someday she hopes to have an evo 8 red with roof. On june 6 of 2006 i took the day off so she took my sti to work that day. I was so bored that morning that i began searching online for evo 8's i found this red one with sunroof at fredbeans with only 26k miles on it so my son and i took a drive out there. i test drove the car and asked my 5 year old if he thought dad was going to get in trouble by mom if he came home with it and he said yes you will be in deep trouble, so i bought it!!! from fred beans i drove straight to her job and asked her to see her keys for a second i took the cobalt keys of her key chain and put the evo ones on there, gave them back and she still had no clue. at 5pm when she got out i got a call from her, she was in total shock, i will never forget that moment.

this is the car when it was bought

first pics of our cars together

a couple of weeks later we started working on her sponsorship proposal because she is going to start racing

her 1st mods were an safc and an mbc, bushur muffler delete, dejon tools uicp, short ram intake

we then realized that the stock clutch was starting to slip really bad so we installed a new one

update5/07/07 painted wheels

That's a great story Ray, you're a good guy. Oh and the wife's car is hot. Hey do you know the guy parked next to her in the Blue sti with the rally decals. I have a friend looking for the hood vent to go in front of the scoop.
