I will give Yuji credit for bumping a related thread instead of starting a new one. Just showing up to advertise their forum is bad taste. Showing up and searching to see if we even know about SubieSport and chiming in is way classier (no sarcasm intended).

Also, for the record, Yuji's got an account here that's like 2 years old though he wasn't actively using it... I'm just assuming he forgot the password.

So, that's +2 for those keeping score at home.

BTW Nevada is my home. Also I was having a registration problem for a while and could not get an activation code to post until today.

I came here to promote our events during SEMA in Las Vegas. www.flat4invasion.com
I thought it would be nice to have you guys come to our event and have fun. I met a few people from this forum last year in Vegas, and they were very nice.

Also I was told not to do any custmer service by publisher, so for those who have questions or problems with your subscription, contact our subscription dept.
Phone 1-800-927-4344 or visit this link:
https://www.themagstore.com/?ProductCode=sub
They should straighten things up. I can probably answer some photo or Japanese questions thou.


For SubieClub, what ever you want to think... This is the international Subaru community and not only a forum. If you guys want, we can create a special SECCS sub forums in SW section if there are enough people registering from your region. Flat4LV (Las Vegas Subaru club) uses the forum to promote their club. We also help local subaru clubs. Please see the link below.
http://subieclub.com/index.php?showtopic=34




Well.....
I feel the love around this community. If you don't like me being here, oh well, please delete my account. if you guys have questions, feel free to pm me. bye for now.

I don't think people are trying to hate on an additional club. Hell, this club started up during the infamous i-club/nasioc split, but we found we had a small local audience that co-exists just fine without detracting from the other boards. If you guys can really add value for the fee then you'll be fine, and if not then you'll still probably be able to get by just on the free offerings as many other clubs have. Let the free market decide.

The flat4 guys seem to run a pretty popular site, I know they started after we did and are far bigger than we are (or that we want to be IMO), so they're obviously doing something right. Please don't hesitate to come around here and keep us up to date on the stuff going on in Vegas or with SEMA, as I know some of the folks here are probably interested.

Thanks,
yes, you are right, if you guys like our magazine and the new club, that's great! If not, that's too bad but before saying anything bad, give us your feedback first and let us know what we are don't wrong.

Also I like taking care of Nevada people as I am in the state. Send us your meet pics, group pics and sick car pics, and we may be able to run them in the up coming issue. You guys may want to participate in our simultaneous World Meet next time we host it. Last weekend, Vegas, Seattle, AZ, NJ, Toronto, Japan, the UK, and NZ joined our world meet. why not you guys next time?

Bye for now.

Send me some meet/group pics with someone holding Subiesport magazine with maybe subies in the background, and we will see... Don't forget to write some comments about your club too. Interesting pics and articles will get our attention...

Send us a stack of subiesport magazine and then we will take a great picture of everyone holding them with scoobs in the background.

Just got the latest issue of Subiesport. . . the '08 STI article was a great read. They detailed some of the bigger changes (stronger/reinforced body shell, improved suspension, VDC/DCCD controls, wider wheelbase, etc.), and took it to Laguna Seca, where they pulled a 1:57.6. They even graphed out lap data - with speed, lateral g's, and acceleration g's - against time and turn number, with notes regarding such things as brake input, gear changes, and acceleration input at key points.

Overall they say that the new STI is a much more significant improvement over the WRX model than in previous years.

I've never cared much for the Team Orange dorifto-rama articles. . . but features like this make me glad I have the subscription.

Yea, it took me a long time to get my first issue. It's a magazine that only comes out every other month so if you subscribe in a month were they released an issue then it seems like forever before you get yours.
