Yeah, this car was specially designed for snowman, but he won the lottery and went with a Ferrari, so he gave this Type-Snow to me. It's a modified version of a Type-S.

LOLLOLOLOL...













Snow grille...


Front end snow conversion...








Snow Dynamic mirror...

By the way, YES I did make all those tire trails on the snow!! LOL
It was nice and FRESH when I got there.

elkayem

Gargola

Watching that video is like watching another guy get hit in the nuts , every time I saw you get close to one of those poles, I tightened up waiting to see the impact...

When you said Type-Snow, I was expecting to see a car buried in snow!

Manach

That looks crazy, and fun, so Ill call it Crazy-Fun. What tires do you have?

elkayem

HAHA, yes that's the Richmond Center rooftop parking!
There was so many cops around, that was the only place I can think of where cops can't see you sliding around just by driving by.

Yes yes, they're 6000k's. Got it from a local place.

elkayem

LOL, the chance of me hitting the pole is so slight that most likely I won't hit it.

LOLL...
Damnnn, in the snow, I had as much fun in this as I did in my STI!
I didn't think it would be so much fun, lollllll I LOVE SNOW

Haha damn you guys getting hit hard up there huh?

btw..you still have the subie right? Why not put the AWD to use!

Rajca

iTrader: (8)

thats some good handling in the snow. wish i could do that but we have no snow right now

TEE ELL

AHHHH i would never do that, because i would be afraid that I might loose wheel alignment. by the way hows ur alignment?

elkayem

Hahaa ya of course, I took it out for a spin on Xmas already, but I didn't expect snow yesturday, it just came down randomly at around 11pm. And I was out with the TL, so I went to a parking lot at 3am after having abit of a meal at midnight with friends and had some fun...
Friend with his ITR was abit unlucky tho, got spotted by a cop when he tried to e-brake into the lot. LOL

Subie was put away in the garage. I don't wanna spend time putting the wheels back on. lol

Doing a nice deceleration upgrade on the Subie. =]

elkayem

It's fine actually, I definately would never do that in the dry of course, almost like punching your alignment and tires in the face.

esolouki

niccccce ice in yoo grillle!

elkayem

Haha! I know! When I got off my car and I saw that I was like WTF SNOW CONVERSION GRILLE! LOL...
My car looks like a WDP from the front...
more like...WSP? White Snow Pearl?

S PAW 1

That's not snow, it's flurries lol.
Looks like you left your VSA on which takes away the fun. Turn off the VSA, and use the e-brake.
Get away from those poles first

elkayem

Actually, VSA was off in the 2nd video, but VSA was on until half way in the first. =\
It somehow still felt very grippy

Evader

Now that's what I call playing in the snow! Just curious how fast you were going because it honestly looked like you had total control of the car. Obviously there was no patches of ice since it was a fresh coat of snow so no harm in having a little fun... and very good choice of location too because I've seen too many idiots doing this type of thing out in wide open parking lots with direct street access and other cars/people around.... If something would have happened, it would have been you and maybe light pole being injured and nothing more.. I love the WSP grille too haha...

elkayem

Average? 30-35km/h in the straights? Yeah, around that if I'm correct, cuz I don't remember exactly.

Actually, there was an entrance to the parking but I had friends watching the entrance incase someone decides to enter while my car is sideways. lol

this was at 3am too btw. hahaha

hamsup

lol..nice! Vancity represent! lol
ya that was some pretty crazy snow..
my car is a plow!
I plow roads for free...I should work for the city...

elkayem

lol I was plowing abit of snow too even tho I was only on H&R springs.

To give you an idea how thick the snow was coming down within 3-4 hrs, H&R springs drop my car for around 1.4"F 1.3"R, not that low even I was plowing around a half to a cm of the snow!

whuynh

elkayem. - i live in vancouver, just wondering where i could pick up a set of those hid's ??

elkayem

Got them from Revspot.
I tried Lordco, twice. Went there when in around October, they said wait abit. So I went back in early December and asked again, they said H8 bulbs have not been developed yet? I loved Lordco, until now. They're slow.

Clement,
I've seen your TL so many times I am not sure if you've noticed me.
One time I was pulling out of NCIX Richmond and I was right behind your TL for maybe 10 seconds.

elkayem

What's NCIX?
LOL Why didn't you honk me or flash me?
you drive a WDP? lol how you know it's me? =P
STALKER

iTrader: (1)

oh my gosh...are you asian? you don't know NCIX? try www.ncix.com
yes, I drive a WDP, and I know your license plate by heart now.
but once you see my license plate, you won't forget it either.

Pika817

I think I saw your car at ESTea on the weekend?

LwPTL1223

haha aint nuthin like playin in the snow but i love the car and i like how you did your wheels are they painted black because i love that and it looks like u have angel eyes in your one pic on another thread love your whole set up!!!

elkayem

LOL omg alot of Vancouver TL stalkers now...
it's ok, I stalk TL's too...LOL
I once followed a NBP Type-S on purpose even tho I didn't go the way it was going, I just took the long route cuz I wanted two Type-S driving together...LOL

Pika817
which Estea? Kingsway or Richmond?
If Kingsway, then ya I was there on the weekend.

Lights
Damnn then you gotta let me spot you so I can see your plate. lol
highbeam me or honk at me next time you see me. I'll look out for a hot WDP, other than OMP Prelude's...lol

Silvertl1223
Thanks for the compliment bro, I appreciate it. I'm just a rookie when it comes to TL, just look at all the hot TL's here! I envy them.
It's people like you who makes me wanna do more! I love you guys and Azine!
Haha, yaaa I love the snow so much! Especially in my Subie, it's more about sideways in my Subie than my TL, considering maybe cuz it's only FWD. Yeah, they are powdercoated body color, the idea just popped into my mind a random day and I decided to do it, some how no one has done it yet!
Ya, I do have angel eyes but they're not working right now cuz I was in an accident about a month ago, still haven't had the time to fix it, or I'm just too lazy LOL

Nice A-spec wheels you have btw, I'm might get a set of 19" A-spec in the spring and paint (Powdercoating takes too long =\ ) them black with colored lip(dunno what color yet) if I don't get aftermarket rims. I wanna go abit staggered with rims if I get something aftermarket, maybe 1.5" lip in the rear, preferably mesh, style like the SC3000, I don't wanna use spacers so I'm not gonna go for the SC3000 since they don't clear the Brembo's. Any suggestions, guys? I'm not too familiar with mesh wheel brands. I have a set of RG2's on my STI tho.

Aman

I wonder what the dude that came first that day thought. haha.


BTW does that damage the tires at all?

looks like you had fun.

elkayem

I think barely...
there was quite abit of snow and it was really slippery to even walk on already.

whuynh

are those also after market headlights? looks like you have angel eye lights??

hamsup
