    ABQ but from detroit
    My name is nate and i just moved to the ABQ area completely starting over. Born and raised in Detroit, forced to move because the shatty economy up there.

    just sold my baby (2001 turbocharged tiburon) and im picking up a 05 SRT4 tomorrow.

    I picked up an Injen catback before i even was sure i was buying the car, so that will go in on friday.

    the car has 40k on it right now and is white. the current mods are mild and are as follows. MSD Ignition Coil, front strut bar AFE intake, 18" Konig Sideways, Mopar STS, Mopar Atmos. BOV

    i don't have much planned for the car because i already have had my fun with the tiburon and want to keep the SRT a good DD, but have fun at the same time.

    my future possible mods include: BC coilovers, tinted headlights/tails, Bosch HIDS, S-style Eyelines and remove the stock spoiler.

    heres the current pictures that i have from the owner before me.

    ABQ chose me.. i applied for some jobs online and got hired at a really good civil engineering firm out here.. they gave me an offer i couldn't refuse, so now im here.. its not too bad out here, i like it so far..

    ill check out the vendors section, my friend from my tiburon forums is a dealer, so it will depend on which price is better.

    That's how we ended up here about 10 years ago!!! Ron tells me, right after we moved here: It's a nice place...people are nice, scenery isn't so bad. Maybe we will stay about 4 or 5 years, then transfer to either California or Washington......

    I'm still waiting for the transfer!!! :imao:

    ^^ yeah, that would be cool..

    i think i actually saw your car the other day. it was at night so i could barely see the flames on the side. are they the ghost type flames?

    if it was you, you were parked way in the back of a parking lot.

    Welcome to the 'C'.

    Quick tip....ditch the MSD coil. Stock is more then adequate. The MSD's are notorious for failing. Mine did. Many many many others did as well.
