Yea, I know how you feel, I went through that last winter. I had a sentra which I tried to treat like a vette, ended up destroying its transmission. For now I drive a mazda b2600 80s something pickup truck, your truck could probably beat it in a race. But after its all over and once you are in the car again... oh man, it feel GOOOOD! For me it was like getting the Vette all over again.

Yeah I am getting TYPE R across my windshield, I think that is good for a few tenths or so, and a double decker spoiler? I figured they could just slap another one on to my existing spoiler and that would help with the downforce.
Mike, I am going to tub out the car myself with a sledgehammer, I know that between the spoiler and the stickers and possibly a huge fart can exhaust, I am going to need that extra traction! :lol:
