my local shop wants $70 but they will redo it anytime for free within 6 months.
Also what the fuck $900? Is that including the springs?

VTEC just kicked in, yo!
I tried sticking through and watching the whole game, but I ended up sleeping through the 3rd and 4th quarter, until the 2 minute mark in the game. Lol. As for the fouls, not sure exactly which ones you're getting at, but the personal fouls were pretty even, 26 called on the Nets to 28 on Toronto. Toronto also had 3 more free-throw attempts in the game. The Nets just pulled out a gutty win, I don't think the Raptors ever had the momentum to push them over the Nets. That's what I saw from halftime and the last few minutes.
Back on the other end, a VERY similar play happened where DeRozen was given a charge. I agree, it was a charge. But if you're not going to call it at the other end, you don't call it at this end either. His basket went in, but obviously didn't count. This could've been a 3 point play (two to say the least). Instead, it was zero.
Actually, there were quite a few fouls they called on Amir Johnson that were questionable as well, which eventually got him ejected from the game. And he was on fire. He could've made the difference in the game.
I agree the Raptors didn't exactly have the upper hand in this game, but this was partly because of questionable calls given to them like the ones mentioned above. I'm not even sure if the Raptors ever had the lead since the second quarter TBH, so yeah I agree their performance wasn't top tier. But if Amir didn't get ejected, and Lowry didn't get that blocking foul or DeRozen not getting the charge (to say the least), we probably would have won.
I know I'm just ranting my ass off because I'm a Raptors fan. I still believe the NBA is scripted though . Only Lillard can beat the script.

Think I may actually be getting the s.tech springs in 1-2 months. Now I need to figure out how to install them.
This is the best price I could find ($168): Amazon.com: Tein SKA64-AUB00 S.Tech Lowering Spring for Acura TSX: Automotive

There were a few fouls in the 3rd and 4th quarters on the Raptors that were very, very questionable. The one that pissed me off the most was Lowry getting a blocking foul when it was clearly a charge. We gave up at least a point here from the resulting free throws.

I didn't even know Amir was ejected though. That sucks, I know he had 18 points or so and then he picked up his 4th foul.

Not sure why I'm getting an alignment, but the shops I called said it was necessary, and some people on here said it was. Gonna do some more research. And who's your guy that does it for $50?! I asked this place near me and evs.
TSX AMG Type //M i-VVT
Yeah you DO need an alignment, after driving it on the new springs for a week.
But not a fucking $150 alignment lol.

Has anyone ever seen a set of MB Battles on the Cu2 TSX? One of the guys in the Houston crew has a set on his TL which I've seen a few times, but I'm having a hard time visualising the wheels on the TSX. These are the ones:
Probably in Gunmetal/Gray instead of Bronze though

I'm trying to get my brother to look at that blue 6spd cu2 in winter springs you sent me the link to roger.. That color is tits

^^yup those are the ones in the first picture. Now that I look at it I think I would need a but of a drop to pull of the look right. And it's wheels or drop right now. That VBP TSX on the Works is amazing.. One of my favorites. If only there weren't so expensive.

Looks like I can get a set of XXR's for $600 in 18". I'm tempted since it's like the only good looking wheel in my price range.. IDK if I should though.. Don't want a cracked wheel.. But they look sexy.. Have some concavity too...

So I'm about to box and send my phone in for repair. Take the Sim card out and that's when I notice my old phone doesn't use a Micro Sim card. Son of a bitch. Probably have to see if the T-Mobile store near me carries an adapter.

I got an adapter for a few cents on eBay. You can also just make one by cutting up an old credit card.
There is the risk of them cracking and then there is also the risk of the finish on the wheel failing and peeling off... from what I've read on them. Save up and get something better quality.

If Acura would have just made the OEM SE wheels in 18" and charged a few more bucks, I wouldn't have to go through this. And I would've finished my homework instead of looking at wheels.

Just lower your car and save up and get nice wheels later.
I'm doing springs and tires right now.... i'll replace my wheels eventually..
