Greetings Saturn Enthusiasts! Please enjoy the latest January SPS Updates… Check Your Bookmarks As most frequent visitors to the SPS website have realized by now, our site receives almost daily updates. Usually, these updates are limited to new products, pricing changes, newsletter posts, customer photos and such. However, there are fairly significant changes planned for the SPS site during the course of 2001 including a move to a new server. If you have created links or bookmarks to the former "donet.com/~sps" location, please update your information to reflect our domain name, http://www.spswebpage.com, so that your links will survive the inevitable server change. Product News The long–awaited clear corner lamps are finally available for second generation coupes and third generation sedans and wagons. These attractive clear corner lamps replace the ugly orange units within the stock front end of all 97-00 coupes and 2000+ SL and SW sedans and wagons. The AOCC0202 lamps are available now for $49.00 per set. The latest SPS strut tower brace features strong machined aluminum sections (2 end brackets and 3 cross-bar sections) that provide exceptional strength and a unique neo-industrial look. Add to the equation a machined aluminum finish, a perfect fit, and an engraved SPS logo, and you’ll understand why we think that this is the best strut tower brace available. Fits all "S" cars. Part number PWSTB02 is available now for $189.00 each. K&N now offers their performance drop-in replacement air filter for Saturn’s new midsize LS and LW models. This filter is very similar to the stock element and fits into the factory air box. However, instead of a restrictive paper element, the K&N unit uses a free flowing cotton element that greatly improves the breathing of the Saturn engine and never needs replaced (simply clean it when needed.) Covered by a million mile limited warranty. Choose the KN0007 for all 2000+ LS/LW models for $54.00 each. Covercraft front end covers (bras) are now available for the 2000+ ’S’ series sedans and wagons. Covercraft custom front-end covers are known for their great fit and high-quality materials. This ensures convenient and long-lasting protection against stone chips, bugs, and debris. Features include easy (no tools needed) installation, custom tailoring for an exact fit, and the ability to open the hood with the bra in place. Covered by Covercraft’s 90-day warranty against defects in materials and workmanship. Choose the MM43002 for all 2000+ ‘S’ series sedans and wagons for $99.00 each. Thanks to popular demand, we are now offering the small SPS vinyl decals in the color blue. The blue decals are available now for 50 cents each using part number JMTBL. Many more new products will be introduced very shortly. But although we are excited about the new items, we must use discretion about releasing new product information because sharing any information before solidifying all of the facts can inadvertently mislead customers, employees, and supporters. Please visit our web site often and watch for future updates. Many more exciting items are on the horizon! January Specials Nology Hotwires can be a valuable tool for delivering sufficient energy to properly ignite the combustion reaction on many highly modified motors. They work by integrating a capacitor within each wire to draw spark energy when it is most needed. Combine any of the DOHC wire sets with the NOL005 12.0mm wire separators and a set of Beru Silverstone spark plugs and enjoy special discounted pricing for January. Nology Hotwires for all DOHC – your choice of black (NOL001B,) blue (NOL001L,) red (NOL001R,) or yellow (NOL001Y) – combined with 1 set of 12.0mm separators (NOL005) and 4 Beru Silverstone spark plugs (SILV001) – normally totals to $194.95 – now only $175.46!

SPS Racing With winter weather currently planted firmly in the central division states, the only racing being done by the scR team last month was Grand Tourismo on Patrick Walker’s Sony Playstation. However, mechanical preparation is under way now for the ITA Saturns of James Walker and Mark Rushbrook. It appears that work is well ahead of schedule to make the May 6 season opener. The tentative 2001 scR schedule is as follows: May 6 Indianapolis Raceway Park Double Regional May 27 Grattan Raceway Double Regional July 1 Mid-Ohio Double Regional July 29 Mid-Ohio Double Regional September 2 Road Atlanta Double Regional October 7 Mid-Ohio Single Regional November 11 Road Atlanta ARRC IT Championship To see the latest scR newsletter, scR tech article or the 2001 schedule, visit the scR motorsports website at http://www.teamscr.com. Meanwhile, Mike Kramer and the Thundersport Racing Team have already begun their season in the Southeast Division. Their season started with an exciting race at Sebring on January 6-7. Despite experiencing some serious brake fade late in the race (Sebring is notorious for being tough on brakes,) Mike still enjoyed a third place finish in SSC (showroom stock C,) beating long-time rival Ken Payson - who last year took second place at the Runoffs in his Nissan 200SX. Catalogues Have Been Mailed Our new 48-page 2000-2001 catalogues were mailed to over 7400 SPS customers on December 15th. This list of customers included anyone that had ever purchased parts or previous catalogues from SPS as of November 30, 2000. It appears that some of these catalogues may have been held by local post offices because of holiday mailing volumes, however, most have since been released and delivered. If you had purchased from SPS prior to November 30, 2000 and have still not received your copy by January 15, 2001, please Contact Us. If you have not purchased from SPS in the past and wish to receive a copy of the 2000-2001 catalogue, you can order your own copy using a Visa, Mastercard, or Discover card by calling 800-632-1059.
