Yeah, fatherhood has really taken up a little more time for Dan than I would have liked.

 

Alright, thanks and keep up the good work

 

 

^So SEXY!!! I check this thread DAILY for pics. Hows it look from the rear?
p.s. Thanks for the pm!!

 

Wow that's a sick angle of your car. That pic just made my pants tighter.

 

No problem man, it's the least I could do since you did the same for me. I will try and take some pics of the rear tomorrow and post them.

 

Lucky number 13.

 

Chip, go meet up with John so we can get some proper pictures of the car

 

We all know how that goes. I think we could get old ladies to mod their TL if they actually visited here

Type-S impersonator

Car looks great, Chip.

 

I agree Tyler, this needs to happen sooner than later. Too bad John keeps getting snow up there, he may have to come down here, lol.

I think it was GP16 that called me out earlier in my thread too about how I said I was going to keep it stock. Guess that really didn't go as planned, lol.
Btw, you know where I can get some Type-S badges?


So since the weather is going to be nice here for almost a week (or so the forecast shows as of now ), I decided to wash my car with Optimum No Rinse that John gave me when he was down here and man it is great stuff!

 

Man, I love those BBS LM reps. they make me miss mine!

Beautiful WDP.

 

I totally see the Batman symbol in the sky

 

I'm digging the reps too. Varrstoen right? Mind sharing the specs on those. I could dig through the pages, but I figured I'd ask first.

 

Yup they are Varrstoen ES1's. 18x9.5 F 18x10.5 R +30 all around and the tires are 225/40 F and 235/40 R.

 

What's up, Anil?! How's the build going? Did you ever finish?

What's up, Jer! Miss you guys, in a very no h0m0 kinda way. Sadly, a triumvirate of work, the gym, and the little one are hoarding my time, and with the weather turning for the better, there will be home improvement to tackle this year. (redoing the first floor flooring and a bathroom teardown)

I'm hoping to get back in to the swing of modding this summer, but that's a wish...may just have to lean heavy in to the detailing side of things

Chip, your car looks AWESOME. Kudos to you for running such an aggressive setup. Watch yourself on the absolute trainwreck of a repave Gloucester Twp performed on Blackwood Clementon Road and the like, the town's abysmal craftsmanship was a huge driver of dumping the slammed stance.

 

Thanks Dan! Yeah they really did a number on some of the roads in Gloucester Twp. Luckily I don't have to travel on the roads they dug up very often. Especially Cross Keys road, that thing is an absolute mess once you cross over Erial road heading towards 73. How can you just tare something up like that and then "pave" it like shit. A lot of those roads weren't in great shape to begin with and now they just made them 5x worse, morons.

 

Not to get off topic, but look at that big shiny star by Austin's name!

 

LOL, WUT?
Dan, glad to hear it's all positives keeping you busy, man. Document your house projects, I'd visit any thread your OCD perfectionist azz posts up!

Chip, Batman? Who knew?!?!
Funny how some pics make it look like you're face down azz up...in others looks like you got saggy azz. Our cars offer so many different frigging viewpoints and angles.

 

Steven, did you mean to post that here?

 

J, I think having the camber adjusted from -2.3 to -1.4 when I got my alignment made the wheel stand a bit taller. So the side profile pic I took before kinda looks like I had some sag and now it looks normal.

 

either way, it looks splendid, buddy.

 

Yezzir...we finished the home build and moved in....

the car build has taken the backburner for now....I do have some updates but am waiting for the weather to get a little bit better

do lurk around and keep us updated with the car/home/your body build...

 

subscribed looking good broski

 

LOL check this out guys! I'm not sure how this happened but my write-up for the iJDMtoy DRL install made it onto their website, pretty cool.

^that's awesome man. and they gave you credit for it! most websites just take other people stuff and throw it on the site.

 

Chip is an author! Nicely done

 

Nicely done, sir.

 

great instructions and install Chip....

on making it on the website...

 

Wow, very cool-congrats!

 

Damn that rear looks so nice. I can't wait till I put my rims on. Thanks again

 

I just went through the entire thread, now I want WDP instead! Piece of beauty!

 

Car looks great! I still cant believe u made the rears fit with such little camber I was actually surprised, I'm hoping for the same results my new rear wheels will be 19x10 et 15 which is only about 0.3in wider than your setup

 

Thanks for the congratulations guys!

Thanks and no problem man anytime!

Thank you sir. It has been a long road of mods and finding what works and doesn't, but I'm super happy with the outcome. Glad you like my progress as well.

Thank you! I was actually quite surprised myself with the camber, lol. A 19x10 at +15 is going to be tough to fit without running some decent negative camber. You're probably going to have to run a pretty stretched tire and I'm guessing camber will be in the -3 or more range. Good luck!

 

Congrats.

 

where did you get your switchbacks?
mine arent that bright!!

 

Here ya go. These are the exact one's I bought from eBay. The seller is maple125 in case when this auction ends and the link dies people will know who to search for. These are Type 2 Switchbacks.

Looking great!! Keep us updated with the latest.

 

Thank you. I should have another little update soon with something I've been working on.

 

better not be that tattoo of justin bieber you put on your taint that you texted me...that would disappoint (most).

 

V3 Tritons are teh better
