    Just bought an '04 TR R32. From Sammamish down to the 520 most days... Saw another TR R32 at Outback down near Factoria and couldn't believe it.

    Anyway - Hello - nice to meet you all!

    I'm surprised you guys more up by Seattle dont see that many R's? Down here in Vancouver, there is at least 3 of us in the city. A few more in Portland

    Hey Snapper...
    Do you come down Redmond Fall City Rd. to 520?
    If so, we cross paths. I come down Avondale to 520.
    Congratz on the new .:R. I got mine 12/26.

    Yep every day. It's crazy how mucht the traffic varies every day...

    Do any of you guys have your R chipped? Mine is and it has a different throttle mapping, so I end up over-revving it all the time in traffic and especially up hills, so for example if it's in 5th and I'm going up hill at 40-ish, sometimes i'll hit the point where the revs go nuts while it's in gear. It's not as bad if I downshift, but it still happens. Is that normal? I was thinking of removing the re-mapped throttle bit if necessary as this can be highly annoying - and I get wierd looks from everyone around me thinking I'm racing up the hill because my exhaust is looouuuud when the revs rise.

    Nice pics man. Good lookin.

    So Nevermind the question about the uphill stuff. I think I need a new clutch.

    I guess it's not the haldex that does that rev matching thing like the guy said... Drove it to work this morning and could hardly hold speed uphill without it slipping. Need to get it in asap. Any good reco's for a shop on the eastside that won't rip me off? Also, any idea what the going rate is for labor to replace a clutch, and finally, is it worth going aftermarket and having the thing be parked for a week or two while I wait for parts to show up?

    Damn.
