well, i gotta say.. we all know him to be a true JDM appeal kind-of-guy

and the toyota altezza (is300) is one of the sickest JDM cars IMO... soarer, aresto and altezza are some bad ass piece of blank canvas, that have alot of potential

Sad to see you go Eric. Your innovative style and your willingness to take the unbeaten path has truly been an asset to the Acurazine community. You surely will be missed. Good luck on your newest endeavor. Mahalo!

It's pretty clear this thread is a hoax because

1. He hasn't responded even once yet
2. He JUST put in an intercooler, no way he's selling his ride this soon
3. April fools is around the corner and is waiting till midnight, 4/2/08 to say IM JK!

HenryK you are right...that was my girlfriend's car. She has about an hour drive to and from work, and just bought a Toyota Prius. She has been trying to sell the IS, so it worked out well for both of us.

I hope that people will end up liking the IS300 as much as they do the TL.

But how much were you offered for the TL?

Eric, if you did infact sell it the person who bought it wouldn't be able to stay quiet. I know this is grade A bullshit. Your girlfriend has a sweet car and I met her and I just don't see her for the Prius type. Spill the beans brother.........

iofhj iohierfrr0u239r0u 3hdjfjksdhfdsikhfdsf HAHAHAHAHA ahhahahd ihihewf that was awesome. This was probably an ACCURATEin ALLTIME favorite april fools prank for the record book.

,...i'm sorry guys, i thought it would be hilarious!! I've been checking the thread all day and laughing my ass off. I Know, it's mean. But it's all in good fun. I highly doubt anyone in their right mind would offer to buy my TL with all the retarted parts on it. The IS300 is indeed my girlfriends car, and I mounted those ce28s on it the other day, so that part of the story has some truth behind the matter.

If it makes some of you feel any better about the atrocity i have just created, my friend Derek was just telling me today how the administrators of my350z.com closed the forum on one of the previous april fools days and left a notice that the website was no longer able to function because of some reasons...and then on april 2nd they opened it back up and the thousands of nissan enthusiasts were highly relieved!! Hopefully the acurazine admins won't get any ideas! ...haha.

I'll post a few pics of the TL here for a closer look at some of the more recent modifications. This one is a good shot of the rotora kit, which should be getting replaced with some aqua goodness! PROJECT MU's! You can also see the varis canard pretty good in this one as well..

haha you like that?! I've been asking my friends which one they like better without before telling them which one is the new one. And almost all of them have been pointing to the type S version. Sometime within the next week or so i'll proceed to put the passenger side in.
