racerx78 Posted August 2, 2010 Report Share Posted August 2, 2010 Hey all, My name is Jerry, from Columbus born and raised. I do computer support for chase. I'm also a father of two boys, who have their own love of cars. As far as car i'm considered bit of a geek/obsessed. I've been in to cars for most of my life, my first fun car was my 93 Taurus SHO, that yamaha motor was fun. Currently I drive a 08 Caliber SRT4 Stg1, that is my weekend/ road trip car. Its not as hard core as the NSRT, but it is seriously fast and really comfortable. Recently i also got a 10' Mazdaspeed3, which is my daily driver/autoX ride. Its not as fast as the Cali but it handles like a champ. I've got a SRI, test pipe & 3" CBE that make it sound amazing. Heres some pics of the rides. http://i228.photobucket.com/albums/ee117/j2onlineaccts/Wheels/bb1217c6.jpg http://i228.photobucket.com/albums/ee117/j2onlineaccts/Wheels/DSCF0228.jpg http://i228.photobucket.com/albums/ee117/j2onlineaccts/Wheels/DSCF0232.jpg Heres the Cail withs its new feet. http://i228.photobucket.com/albums/ee117/j2onlineaccts/Wheels/NewImage.jpg http://i228.photobucket.com/albums/ee117/j2onlineaccts/Wheels/40407fc5.jpg http://i228.photobucket.com/albums/ee117/j2onlineaccts/Wheels/100_2544.jpg Shots of the Speed AutoX'n http://i228.photobucket.com/albums/ee117/j2onlineaccts/Wheels/solo1954.jpg http://i228.photobucket.com/albums/ee117/j2onlineaccts/Wheels/solo1957.jpg http://i228.photobucket.com/albums/ee117/j2onlineaccts/Wheels/solo1431.jpg 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harry Bird Posted August 2, 2010 Report Share Posted August 2, 2010 very nive intro welcome to cr and the srt4 caliber is nasty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
racerx78 Posted August 2, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 2, 2010 Ty, i just Stg 1 right now and i'm pretty much done with it performance wise. Maybe a downpipe, Coilovers and sways. Until i see if i can put a MS3 LSD in the CSRT, i'm not worry about about adding power. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2 Sweet Posted August 2, 2010 Report Share Posted August 2, 2010 Very nice intro. Your Caliber looks great, and that's not something I'd say very often about a Caliber haha. The new Mazdas look horrible IMO, but I bet it's a fun car. Welcome to CR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
racerx78 Posted August 2, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 2, 2010 Thanks i can't see flickr pix from work so i know what its like. Both cars are really fun. I'm still trying to see what i want to do with the Mazda. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The new Mazdas look horrible IMO, but I bet it's a fun car. Welcome to CR Yea me to. I hate the regular calibers with a passion. I know alot of people hate the new front ends on the mazda, to each his own. I like, but i'm used to the heat. I had the same thing about the Cali when i first got it.

TTQ B4U Posted August 2, 2010 Report Share Posted August 2, 2010 Welcome man. I take it you were the fellow with his kids at Cars and Coffee at Cup O Joe IIRC. April timeframe. I think I have a shot of your car there. I was in the Crystal White Pearl MS3. It was in need of a bath http://www.pbase.com/timothylauro/image/123275752/original.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think I have a shot of your car there. I was in the Crystal White Pearl MS3. It was in need of a bath http://www.pbase.com/timothylauro/image/123275752/original.jpg Lol, that was me. I'm doing a little better keep'em clean now. I've been working on my house every weekend so i haven't been able to come out to C&C for a while. Both cars looked better with the stock rims especially the c-srt4 Debateable... The Cali rims do look nice stock but the price for 19" rims is crazy and the selection is shallow. I got the current 20's for 100 each and i'm running 255 width instead 225. The tires are much cheaper also and much more of a selection. So its a win/win, the stock rims are for winter only now. The Speed the drk grey rims are my AutoX tires so i don't burn up my daily tires. Those two are 255's on 17's. I don't mind the look of them to much but i'd probably want something taller since i don't want to drop it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
