alright, so today on my way home from work i realized that im incredibly bored with my progress again, waiting for the calipers and the wheels to be done put a damper on my spirits. Im so impatient when it comes to progress with any project that i take on, that being said, i was driving home and i decided to make a pit stop at the local muffler shop. My original plan was to do the mid muffler delete and be happy with it. I got the muffler removed, drove the car down the street and turned right around and went back. I ended up having them remove the resonator and adding exhaust tips lol. It sounds ok, im thinking that next week ill have them replace the stock mufflers with something throatier and maybe adding a small resonator because in low rpm's i get that shitty rasp. 
anywho, i really enjoy the overall look.

So i finally got around to installing my RDL BBK upgrade, and hot damn does it look sexy! lol. If you are bored with the base TL brakes id say this is a pretty good replacement. Im not sure if i took enough pics to do a step by step write up but ill write one up and see if i feel okay with submitting it to you guys. for now though here are some pics of the BBK and of the TL cleaned up for the Eibach 2014 meet (that i didnt get to get into because i forgot my ticket at home...) but i got another new toy out of it lol. Go Pro Hero3+

im already getting bored again and im not sure what else i can do to the car that isnt major lol, im getting impatient with WheelFlip, they have had my wheels for a month now and i havnt heard anything. all i can do is wait though lol. Ill be super happy when i get them back, and ill probably go static for a while, especially since im considering an engine swap with decent power, and im not entirely sure that the bags can support the kind of squat that will be produced with the power im trying to make.

alrighty, so i had been waiting for my vsxx to come back from wheelflip for about 3 months. and i finally got them back haha. so this is the update 3 months in the making. I took my vsxx to wheelflip to get the barrels sealed because they were leaking, and then i decided that i wanted to plate the hardware in 24k gold . turns out it was a great idea cuz the wheels look absolutely amazing. I took the car for an alignment today to fix the toe and it was totally off lol. Americas Tire fixed it and gave me a read out on the camber so i finally know exactly how much im running, and it turns out to be -4.5*s in the front and -6*s in the rear. Not too bad considering the rears are 11.5. Also had the misfortune of breaking a ride height sensor on the passenger side front of the car. But the rear fitment ended up right where i want it. the fender sits right at the lip and tire. gonna do a shoot with some friends, then i should have decent pics of my car instead of iphone pics all the time lol.

Holy crap i havnt updated this thread in 9 months. Oh how time flies when youre busy with school . Havnt really done much to the car with the exception of adding an STI chargespeed splitter to the front. Waiting on the side splitters to come this weekend. I have a few ideas for the car for this year. Im gonna buy some Sparcos and Redo the interior, but the big plans are to Re-do the wheel settup, a few weeks ago i ordered 7 inch lips and 5 inch inner barrels so i can build a new custom rear settup. The 11.5's are moving up to the front and gonna have 12's in the rear. Bought myself a 60D over the Holidays and have slowly been learning how to shoot and edit my own shots. so just a fair warning, lots of pics incoming lol.
