I'm new here, but here's some pics of my girl's TL that I fixed up
long story short. my girl got a tl and I decided to fix it up. All the work was done in about 3 weeks. wheel fitment is 19x8.5 front and 18x9.5 rear offset is +20. coilovers are function form. aspec front and rear with a lil roof wing off ebay. I didn't want to go crazy with her car so so its a basic set up for her. I plan on lowering it a lil more but we have been talking about turboing the tl. I'm very interested in turboing this car. but yea heres some pics of the whip... and by the way my name is mike myke.

Nice rides, I really like the teal on your 240.

Good luck with the turbo!

lol thanks everybody. but naw its automatic "girl car" the white wheels are staggered 19x8.5f 19x9.5r 20 offset but the chrome wheels are just 18x8.5 40 offset with 20mm spacers. But, yea the 240 is my baby but we drive the tl a lot more so I got tired of it looking hella cheap and base model status. I've been on this form for a while, I love the cars on here and I got a lot of ideas from here. the turbo idea is something I want to do just to add more power, in stock form the car is to slow for my liking. I've seen people on here go turbo can anybody give me the info on whats all needed or would it be easier to just do a supercharger. aiming for about 300-350 reliably.

Looks good!

You don't need to go turbo to hit that target. I think you'll be comfortable with bolt-ons and a supercharger.
