Some of you may have read my post about options for toggle switches on the JK and I thank you all for your responses. I just ordered the Cool Tech panel so that I can clean up the install a little bit and get rid of a temporary switch box I velcro'd to the dash so that it can be easily removed when the panel comes.

I went to school up in Buffalo, NY and now I'm living on Long Island and am in my 3rd year of medical school. I bought an 04 WRX back in 04 because I wanted a versitile car that I could both race at AutoX and drive in a buffalo winter. Now I'm running back and fourth from the city mainly Queens and the Bronx and the WRX is a pretty poor choice because of the pot holes and likelihood of theft, so I am leasing an 08 Wrangler X 6spd soft top and it's a nice change to go back and fourth between the two.. sort of makes the wrx feel much more car like and the jeep feel much more truck like than if I stuck to just one of them. Here they are, enjoy the pics...

Nice pic's...

Is the WRX an STI ?? I had an STI roll up on this past fall when I was out on the bike, he wanted to run... They are pretty quick !!

It's a modified wrx, not an STi, but it will take a stock STi, just not a modified one. What kind of bike do you have? I've been riding a little ninja 250 around for 6yrs now with not enough money to buy the zx6r or zx10r... eventually I'll pick one up just not today :(

The 14 is a monster, I'd be affraid to give it full throttle. Smoothness is definitely key.
