araaadi

uh oh. spoiler alert.

mellostack

SlickxAc

i shall refrain myself from saying something mean lol

ttk5

Man have I gotten bad at updating my progress thread. If you want to help keep it alive by postin pics before I get around to it, by all means haha! Araaadi I didnt see your ride at the revscene. Only other CU2 was a blue TSX on stance wheels.
And the lugs are Rays duralugs. But I wont be using those much longer. I am in need of some open ended extended lugs because I have extended studs in the rear, and currently the cheap open end lugs I am using for those in the rear are too short to show anything but a stud coming from the lug holes.

Some pics taken by some photographers from a recent car meet.
-Vossen CV3 in matte black machined
-19x10 +20 all around
-235/35/19 (front)
-225/35/19 (rear)

I really wanted to get the wheels in silver, but I thought it would be cool to really do the Panda theme hardcore. Black and white baby. And man its been fukin hard not putting even a single sticker on my ride. I love stickers and there are a few places I'd really love to put them, but it ruins the clean look im going for

Mischa25

Awesome tsx... I love to see another tsx with cv3..... Great job my buddy..

ttk5

Thanks Mischa. I remember when I first fell in love with the CV3's, I looked at your ride and drooled over it for a long time haha. CV3's from across the globe, unite!

Some more pics, including some of my friends' rides. An E92 M3, S4, and a 1996 RHD imported DC2R. Honestly, I dont think my car is very photogenic at all with these wheels. I guess they look alright in pics, but in person they really give my car a real presence. Anyways, here are the pics. All comments and criticisms welcome, as usual. Already a few of my friends are saying they liked my purple wheels more, but I don't even think the 2 set ups are comparable. Just 2 very different style set ups. I personally love this luxurious, executive look

ssjoeboe9

I like that all of your headlight is black except for the drl!

It may have convinced me to go with a vinyl roof as well. Hmmmm

ed_423

ballsy specs btw!

iSeeYouTwo

That rear stretch doeee. Looks unsafe LOL. How's the ride?

Looks great though! And that S4 + Dc2R

shady_CU2

loving it, looks great

Mr. NC

Oh man when this thread gets bumped to the top I know something major got updated...I like the specs, the wheels not so much but it's your whip! Keep it up brosef

Brandon T. Sang

Awesome job, man. I still think back to your old work wheels...back when we had something in common.

You've come a long way!

kriscO

ugh, after seeing your car, makes me wanna slam mine now.

I really liked the old setup, but these new wheels definitely add a little class

Miyagi__

holy shat i'd cry if i went over a bump on those stretches. D:

digging the ride. 19x10 looks sick!

waaasobe

wow, simply amazing!

King_Solomon_357

Nice ride man!

Love your ride man. Good job next wheels forgestar f14 concave bro.

TWENTYNINE

Daaaaaaaayum!! So sleek! OMG why are you located in Vacouver and not Toronto?! Would love seein' your CU2 in person. Hands down, one of THE BEST CU2 around. Good job bro!

cwins

What kind of work was needed up front to fit 10s?! I want to run 19x10 all around next setup, but running 9s right now are kinda pushing it! Haha

rockstar143

iTrader: (6)

probably a roll and narrow tires.

ttk5

I love black roofs on white cars. If you do get it, go for gloss black, as opposed to matte or carbon .. unless you do real carbon lol.

it aint that ballsy! Im clearning better than I did my last setup and I still have room to go lower!

Thanks! i know it looks unsafe. When I initially saw the stretch before mounting i was like uhhh...shit. what have i done. haha. But now that its on I love the look, i just gotta keep an eye on tire pressure and pot holes. The ride is pretty firm though. I feel most of the things on the road.



Thanks! Means a lot coming from the TSX of the month! haha


Thanks NC!

TY sir. I love your wheel set up too.

Thanks. I loved the XC8's. Such an uncommon wheel too. I like your new trunk spoiler


Do it. Dont even think about it, just do it lol. Thats what I did.


I know, its like a racey look, vs a more executive look. Very different. I got a new job with the school district so pulling into the staff lot with purple wheels was not very professional haha.

Ty man. I looked alot at those avante garde wheels also and I think they look amazing on your car. Hope you get those damages and stuff fixed alright .

ty.

thanks

I never ever seriously considered the F14's..but that deep concave is REALLY sick. Like reallly really really sick. Im a huge sucker for concave..
Thanks man! My bro lives in toronto..maybe one day I will drive over...haha..errr maybe not. Yea honestly I dont really like how my car looks in photos..its just very different than in real life. I wish you could see it in person too haha


Front has been rolled, pulled and fender liner cut a little. I was told the pull was only 5mm, but no way it was just 5mm. 19x10 +20 is clearing real nicely and I have room to go lower. So i think the pull was atleast like 10mm. But your car looks absolutely crazy right now! Once you pull your fender you gotta find your fitment all over again. But I guess that's part of the fun. For me I am just finally now, after all these years, happy with my stance. It can be really stressful and time/money consuming to find that perfect setup, which I think you have right now with you 9". Love your ride man..its inspiration for me to lower haha

TWENTYNINE

Damn, if only this was your bro's car then ahahaha

Keep up the good job!

waaasobe

after looking at your car more im kinda regretting getting black haha. did you clear your headlights your self ?

ttk5

Yeap I cleared the headlights myself, with a friend. I use a heat gun though, not the oven to bake it. There are some pics of it earlier in this thread.

Here are a couple other photos I found from a local blog.




Dont really like the angle of this rear shot, but shows my AP2 tips which some of you might want a better look at.

MC MiYoung3269

That color fringing in the first pic.... I suspect a plastic fantastic 50.... The photographer side of me came out lmao

savclaude

ap2 tips look great on there

Just wanted to share some exciting new updates. But no pictures or anything yet!

-I'm scheduled to be in the next Vossen world tour video for Vancouver BC. Dont hate me slickacx
-Accepted a sponsorship offer from Sony for car audio and signed a 1 year deal in which my car will be displayed at some shows such as Importfest coming up this Saturday, and Autocon. We are currently trying to finish the car up for the show..dont know how everything will turn out. Im not big on car audio, but I accepted the sponsorship for the experience and exposure. This could be a great way to make some connections and breakthrough into the scene. Offer came up last minute so time frame was too tight to fit a TV into the trunk...but wish I could have done that cause after Importfest I would totally just remove it and put it in my room lol.

-Got some windows visors!
-Got new lug nuts!
-Got some RL calipers for a custom BBK setup. But I will work on this project little by little.

Been a good 2013 for me and my car so far so wanted to share an update. But seems 2013 has been a great year so far for many of us. SOOOO many sick CU2's these days..man..and we're actually beginning to show up on some of these blogs and shit! represent! Ed, slick, shady, twentynine, drull, mischa, cwin, savclaude, vortexblue, cu2dan. And the list goes on. Whoo!

iSeeYouTwo

Good shit on the sponsorship and video cameo brother! Well deserved for sure.. That rear end picture of your car up there is the Wallpaper on my Laptop. Aiming for the same specs as you when I purchase my wheels.

VortexBlueTSX

Loving this man! Congratulations...Its so hard for us CU2s to stand out in the acura field because of the lack of companies making parts for us....but you and Ira are the perfect example getting recognized. Cheers to the sponsorship

ed_423

wow man congrats!!

TWENTYNINE

LOL your idea of removing that TV after iFest and placing it in your room is totally something I would do as well ahaha

Congrats on your sponsorship and I can't wait to see that custom BBK project!

ttk5

Appreciate the kind words everyone.
-iseeyoutwo: we can be twins! i dont mind!!
-vortexblue: I remember derwoodee's BBK setup but it was your buddyclub setup that inspired me to tackle brakes as well! Your BBK is just a cherry on top of the GT30's.
-ed: thanks man! and congrats again on all the features you been in this year
-twentynine: lmao. I couldnt get a TV so i requested a tablet. Now that I got the tablet the installers are like uhh what do you want us to do with this. Im like, iunno just put it anywhere cause Im gonna rip it out and use it after lol.

Congrats! Nice to hear your hard work is being recognized.
