Yeah, unfortunately nothing much happening. Not as many people doing stuff on the GK as they did with the first two generations. They had more parts and more aftermarket support. I joined about a month ago and not really much happening.

That is HILARIOUSLY false.

The aftermarket for the GK is at least as good as it was for the GE.

Which was about as good as it was for the GD.

Source: I was around during FF's peak right before the GE debuted, I've owned and modified a GD, I've owned and decided against modifying a GE, I've skimmed GK threads.

People have been citing a lack of aftermarket support since day one, each time they've been wrong. There's plenty for GK folks to do, the car just doesn't attract car enthusiasts (neither did the GE, long live the GD3)

Yes it seems i'm incorrect. It all seems to be that the GK doesn't attract. GD is where it's at when it comes to modifications and such. I just see the GK section very dead in comparison. Kinda sad, really. I've been seeing a lot of sweet builds in Singapore and around that area. They're very big on the GK.

^^ Agreed... Aftermarket is still out there and going decent. Traffic wise here... Not seeing anything major build wise. Then again, I haven't really be looking due to being busy with work and my GD's build.

Sid, when did you move to Texas?

Ah... Its pretty peaceful out in the boonies The scenery in that area are pretty nice too, same with some of the roads.

Also, you're actually about 2 to 2.5 hours north of me.
