Stop, Drop and Roll....
Sunday, October 08, 2006 9:28 PM
OK - Time to explain...

Stop -> Just bought new cross-drilled and slotted rotors

Drop -> FINALLY dropped my ride on Koni Reds and Sportlines

ROLL -> Popped on some new 19" Axis Spiders!!!!! (Thanx Vince!!!)

So... I HAAAAD to take some new pics (and develop a new Sho-off poster of course

On to the pics....



This was how it USED to look - a FREAKIN 4 x 4!!!!



NOW FOR THE NEW LOOK!!! (PS: yes.. the alteezas and vent visors are stayin...but opinions are still welcome)

This is my favorite one...













And the new poster I'm developing... this is just a test sample, better pics will be in the final product

looks 20x better. still think it would look alot better if you shaved the badges, door moldings. and do anything different with the tails.

How do you like those seats and where did you get them?

hmmm not my cup of tea. like you said tho, comments welcome, dont like the tails or window visors lol. and the tint doesnt look good on there either, should have went all black with the tint, and like he said, remove side mouldings.

Hahahaha 1HotZ - I TOLD him he was nutz for sellin 'em, but no complaints from me!!!

As for the badges and side mouldings - they are DEFINITELY comin off next year. I didn't paint the trunk or doors when I got the kit so if I removed them I'd have "paint shadows" since it's a '95. As for the alteezas, I am thinking of painting a red clear coat on them for next year to make em blend better with the ride.

Sunfires...eh -> I got those seats from a small vendor in Toronto for - $200 each, They're dope! They are really comfortable and have the quick recline lever. My girl used to live in MOntreal so we have to make the 4 - 5 hour drive there often and it's still fine. I think Canadian Tire sells these seats now too, but not as cheap.

Keep the opinions comin!

looks better than before, definately... BUT since you dont mind hearing opinions, and you know you are gunna get some here are mine:
-window visors need to go, they break things up and ruin the flow imo.
-tails gotta go, the whole car is all nice and solid red, all smooth then BAM big chunks of chrome... UGLY! tinting them wont help IMO. stock tails, 00-02 tails, or ANY toyo tails would rock.
-not digging how low the sides are compaired to the rear (although i love that rear, maybe just not with those sides)
-you already said it was planned, but ill say it anyway, toss those side moldings.
-do everything you can to make the corners and headlights line up better, that runins the front of the car for me.

now that you have heard me gripe, lemme say the car as a whole, other than what I mentioned, from what i see, just plain rocks!


On the other hand....you have other fingers.

I just bought a 20 inch widescreen ultrasharp flat pannel..I'm going to have to subscribe to the high quality porn places now......damn

Sorry but I have to be harsh:
-the tint is terrible. all black would have been way better
-side mouldings HAVE to go.
-The side skirts are yuck. Something like the side skirts in big poppas sig would be WAY better
-Window visors aren't doing anything for me
-system has to be changed. Sony makes it look like you don't know what your doing.
-spoiler is not good either

remember less is more. Your car has way to much going on. tone it down and it will look alot better.

sorry

glad to here that the side mouldings are coming off. Those are the only thing that really bugs me. The red tails would look awesome. Your new mods def make a huge diff. With the tails and mouldings your car is going to be hotttttt. BTW, one of my friends has those seats too. For how much they cost, they are really comfortable. I was surprised.

No worries Randy - I guess in the end it'd be a COMPLETELY different car thoough - lol... but the system was affordable at the time (2nd hand). I can't wait till you guys see this ride next year

Yeah Darren, I went to The airport to take the pics. I wanted to take better ones, but I was pressed for time. They still came out OK though.

Full Cav Effect -> I got the Reds off of Darren (gtpsunfire). The combo of the Reds and the Sportlines make for a SMOOOOOTH ride. Feels like stock - until I take a nice hard turn - THEN I can't stop smiling!!!
