It's TSX_on_dubs

i went to the show... it sucked. biggest waste of $25.

it was freaking dark (which made picture taking nearly useless) and looked extremely un-organized.

the girls were 'meh' at best, and none of the cars really stood out.

i am definitely NOT going next year.

CCColtsicehockey

was this your first hot import nights show then cause a lot of them they have the lights low. I mean they are not normally completely dark but they are not that lit up either. The girls normally dont suck. come up north for one as I have yet to be dissapointed in one of the ones up here.

extremetls...thank you!!! the models sucked...i dont know if its because i live in miami where beautiful women are everywhere but those models sucked so why waste space on my memory card and energy from my cameras battery???

r33p04s

and about it being dark...i figured it not the South Florida Auto Show...why would they want to present their show in the same way...the low lighting also creates a certain atmosphere (i guess its to emulate the whole street racing and import scene that goes on mainly at night?) which it crtainly did with the strobes and blaring music and smoke machines all calling for you attention...i wouldnt call it unorganized maybe its the low light that made it seem that way but if it is because the cars weren't organized by make and model then thats not a good justification...it was separated into car clubs (which is how most people enter instead of individually) and corporate show cars and individuals filing in the gaps...

tsxondubs

Do you have a pic of your car since there was nothing that stood out ?
maybe you should have entered your car in the show !

CCColtsicehockey

nice call. pretty sure atleast in my opinion tsxondubs car stands out pretty well. nice clean. with bling wheels and engine bay and a nice system. glad to see you representin down there for us.

lito

should have went to the show Jason you could have picked up your first ever BEST JDM TROPHY with all the cars that was there you probly had a good chance.

CCColtsicehockey

yeah stupid college why the heck did i stay here. to bad the car is taken apart in storage.

tsxondubs

if u go to the hin north carolina show ccc ill have to make the road trip to see ur car in person before i part mine out .

extremetls

relax there chief... i can form my own opinion. my opinion is, that nothing really stood out to me. sure there were a lot of nice cars... but nothing out of the ordinary. and if it was out of the ordinary, it wasnt in a good way.

the last HIN i went too was 2yrs ago so i figured i would go to this one and see if its gotten any better. i was disappointed to say the least. if it wasnt so dark in there, i probably would of enjoyed it more and spent a little more time there. but i guess thats the nature of the show, so what can you do? i guess i'll just stick to the regular shows from now on.

p.s. here is an old pic of my car... its slightly different now.

TSX.Fury

forget his car... you will want to see mine

CCColtsicehockey

already done. car will be there as i am pulling a crazy trip that weekend. I am going down friday to take my car to the show. drop car off friday night. go back to my parents place stay the night. sleep in real late. head over to venue clean off car and have it judged. go back home and sleep some more. go back in time for awards. hopefully pick up a trophy. leave venue around 1:30am and start drive back to PA. Arrive in PA head to hershey. Arrive in Hershey at 8:30 exactly in time for registration for Tuner Wars another NCCA show in PA.

Call me crazy yes. But definitly funny if I win and have the trophy in front of me thats show I was in NC just 7 to 8 hours earlier.

CCColtsicehockey

you have already commited to the roadtrip. now if we can just get dubs to make it along with us so that we can have 3 CG TSX at the PA show.

CCColtsicehockey

tsxondubs

I dont think ill be going any further than north carolina for any car show no matter what unless someone else takes the car for me .but i guess ill see u in north carolina then in a few months guess its time to order a few more goodies before i retire the tsx .

Want me to start one for you then??

CCColtsicehockey

you mean a thread.

CCColtsicehockey

Here you go benz

this is a trophy from HIN for 2nd Place JDM OEM. I have two of these.

lito

Do I detect a challenge there Ben. Okay you two let's settle this once in for all. Time and Place-HIN April 06 in Dulles ,VA. The battle of JDM CG Euro-R's. BE THERE!!!

CCColtsicehockey

Bring it on. (Please take note I am in College vs. Ben full time working job) hence the increased income. Hopefully my headstart on the project prevails till then. Hopefully I can pull off some big christmas moves. Also maybe got a rare part or two myself.

xizor

no excuses, us working people also have to support ourselves. its not like 100% of our income is poured into our cars

CCColtsicehockey

well it appears that way with Fury.

but sure bring it on no excuses. got some secret parts of my own.

lito

He said bring it on Ben. Where you at! I think it's the end of your BEST JDM trophy days CCC. FEEL THE FURY!!!

CCColtsicehockey

Dont be so sure about that. I have a rare part or two coming up myself man.

It will be close but being as they judge the car as a whole he is missing several components. luckly atleast he has a lot more aftermarket parts and less oem than me. Cause I compete in the JDM OEM Catagory and he may be bumped into JDM Aftermarket. Lito you would definitly be in aftermarket. You guys need to add some I.C.E. and audio too.

TSX.Fury

lol that's the benefit of having a well paying job

TSX.Fury

TSX.Fury

I have all the Euro-R parts you have plus the door siils and window trim

and your ICE and audio isn't very JDM

CCColtsicehockey

yeah but you still gotta have it to compete.

CCColtsicehockey

thats not the point. the point is you have been through school. so the point is the age difference. maybe I will have to take out a loan and pull out all the stops.

CCColtsicehockey

how bout those pedals where are they at. i will have the door sills by the show.

TSX.Fury

lol, please don't do that Trust me that wouldn't be worth it, you will really regret it later.

TSX.Fury

I'll have the mugen pedals though

CCColtsicehockey

i dont care its aftermarket

CCColtsicehockey

i was just kidding. there is no way i would take out a loan to mod a car.
