  1. Got my tires switched around today after the show: I plan on lowering the front a bit more to close up some of the gap. I would have done it today, but I was too busy working on the shop Supra and didnt get around to it. Ill probably do it tomorrow.
  2. You are correct. If you read what I wrote, I said I believe it was a GTR. I couldnt remember what car I saw the flares on... just that I had. You can tell its an S13 by the upturned corner lighs/headlights. It just has a GTR replica front bumper. Thats why my memory thought GTR until I found the picture.
  3. Wow... Thats a really clean ride.
  4. Good call. Chrome it is! Ill save gold for the next vehicle I pick up... I already have something in the works.
  5. Man, buying replacement bolts for these things can get expensive. Im weighing my options between a gold or a chrome bolt. Gold to match the centers or chrome to match the lip. Opinions? My thing right now is that my rims arent that exact color gold and I have neo-chrome lugnuts... so gold might clash. Chrome will blend in easy which is nice. Maybe the make neo-chrome bolts for rims.
  6. Well any minitruck would be more than we have... My boss drives a stock S10, but thats it. Eventually Ill pick up a 620 to drive, but other than that we have no truck action here. Youre always welcome here. I need to text you too about some parts.

    Clean truck! Makes me want to convert to RHD hmmmm
  8. Ok, let me check the condition of my suspension and I will get back to you. No, I was going to check, but it seemed like a bunch of work. If the bolts you have, have SSR on the top of them then... then they are probably mine. Today was a pretty good day. Went to a local car show with work and everyone loved the car. Had many people coming up asking me about it or telling me about how they used to have them. For awhile I was getting more attention than the 2JZ swapped 240 we brought. There was an RB swapped 260z there as well.
  9. My entry is not 100% mine... I will withdraw my entry. To be fair, it was not in the original post when it was originally made... I also generally look at the submissions in this thread. I apologize for overlooking that rule.
  10. No photoshopping of other colors... Im pretty dead set on either the OG drab green, or respraying this current color. Yeah, I wouldnt call this a budget build, but I would say this build could be easily obtained by anyone with a reasonable paycheck and some time to search for nice/unique parts. No tires, but here are my wheels on JRocks wagon... it should atleast give you an idea:
  11. GreenGoons wagon has a sliding ragtop.
  12. Im running one that is NLA. I have no recommendations personally, but the one tip I can provide is try to find the flattest sunroof possible. A lot of the generic glass will be pretty flat so thats what you want. The 510 is arched some, but pretty flat in the center compared to a lot of cars. You can go into a automotive glass place and pick one up for about $175 and about $80 installed though YMMV depending on location. If you feel you can do it yourself, then you can get away with a pretty cheap job.
  13. Yes, though Im waiting a little bit until I get some adjustable LCAs and TC rods here in a bit. I figure its a waste of money to get an alignment, change the suspension and do it all over again in such a short period of time. Alignment is a must though. A few more pictures: Theres a mini car show tomorrow at my boss' technical college so were going to roll over to that during the day. Ill be driving the 510 over and hes going to take out 2JZ swapped drift 240sx. Im going to be showing up to the shop early and will be doing a mini polish on SSR lips. Im cleaning up the hardware right now as we speak. Luckily the rims are a welded 3-piece so I think its safe to run without hardware for a day.
  14. Haha I knew that when I saw them on the wagon, I would like them on the 4dr. I just bought all the tires so Im not looking at getting rid of any of them just yet... so Im going to switch them around so the taller tire is in the rear. Ive got plenty of space in the rear; even with the 8in rim the tire will clear fine. Ive got better clearance with these than the Aeros. You should really look at going with some MKIIIs for the wagon. They would look sick in the color you have the rims for the wagon now. Color match like a bawse.
  15. I might hit you up on that Q. Let me recheck mine with the crowbar test see if they really are bad. PM me a price youre thinking and maybe we can work something out. On the way to the shop with the new tires: What my front tires looked like before: What my front tires look like now: 2sec iPhone photo. Nothing fancy, just the side profile: 2sec. iPhone photo. Nothing fancy, just a 3/4 shot. Overall Im super happy with the rims, but Im going to need to switch the tires around; the front on the rear and the rears on the front. As you can see, the rears are a bit smaller than the fronts so Im going to need to fix that. This was my only option getting tires so quickly because of the blowout. Ill probably swap them around this weekend maybe.
  16. A little, but I think its just the horrible qualify of the image.
  17. Root beer... you mean root beer... Beer isnt allowed at the site.
  18. But you dont capitalize things after a comma unless its a proper noun. Are you sure you passed the ninth grade?! LOL at Alex and his Leo... Trust me Jalen, youre not going to win. Just give up and and post oics of you working on your car.
  19. I had a Queensland Healer as well... great dog. Heres my dad with him when he was a pup:
  20. <_< Listen hurr Hainz. If anyones going to be fucking my sister, its going to be me... wait... I mean trading my car. And yes, I would trade my car for this. Those pictures are awesome!
