Hey guys, I have my Progress RSB with rear Ingalls Engineering sway bar end links FS if anybody is interested pm me . Both are brand new in the boxes, just opened to check if I got the correct parts. My wheels are also up FS as well.

Im not sure brotha... I dont want to give you a price guess and have it be WAY more or something. It will all depend on the condition of your current vehicle and how much work has to be done. It will more than likely cost the same as anywhere else but I can guarantee that the work will be done right!

Evil_Pineapple

Just cause we are both from Hawaii doesnt mean that I keep tabs on him... He's around, I guess he and I both have been slacking on getting to the forum.

i have been slacking hardcore on being on here. haha whats up jorge its been awhile. hows everyone been? ive been pretty good just smashed with work, damn holidays.

GivatiTL

Great upgrade ! made a difference of night and day !

Takata 18

Why are you selling. You were so exited before you got them. Are you getting rid of your ride? If I didn't already have the RSB I would buy it. GLW the sale.

Takata 18

I thought it was a DNA thing with you all. It is that PR side in you that rebels. Plus that Jamaican in you. I just asked if you heard from him.

Takata 18

For my 5 spokes its a deal.
Not even close.
yes you are both slakers is that DNA thing.It's good to be busy and to have a job. Hey Can you tell me the model tires you have and what size. It is good to hear from you don't be a slaker.

Thanks . Yeah, I'm not getting rid of my ride anytime too soon.

Oh and "Merry Christmas" and a "Happy Holidays" to all .

blktl04

Yes having a job that is busy during the holidays sucks. Bit the tyres are dunlop sp signature sport. No numbers in the model of them.

Takata 18

Merry Christmas to all in the TC forum GOD BLESS ALL.

GivatiTL

Happy Holidays
Any of the MT guys looking for Synchromesh MT fluid ? I got some extras that I will sell for 10$ a bottle and I can also help you change it too.
Also selling a stock 6MT RSB for 40$ which is 2mm thicker than stock 5AT, I can also help you change that too.

If you're looking to add a resonator, I've got a BNIB Vibrant resonator here that I won't use. Let me know if you need it.[/quote]

PM me.

I think I found myself a solution. Maybe I should air ride my TL to make it more convenient as I would want it to be. Just a thought, here's a video:

Better alternative is these Variable Ride Height suspension that's made to work with your coilovers.

I've been tossing around the idea of installing an AccuAir system in my car... My cousin owns a VW/Audi shop and has put it in quite a few cars and offered to put it in for free for me if I wanted. Not sure if I should go that route though

Takata 18

I did not know you were into low riders.

SSM4DR

iTrader: (1)

At least you got a pretty good hook up there . But yeah, same here but I'm leaning more towards a suv in a few yrs.

I'm still going through those phases lol. Now I'm getting tired of driving around lowered and worrying about the lip kit and wheels. Also I've learned that although it may be convenient for me, to my passengers especially my mom. It sucks that they have to go through the hassles of being in my car when I drove them places.

Don't go air ride unless the car is all show. And they dont handle that well and the ride is only ok.

But the VRH kit is badass. Handling properties of coilovers yet you can raise up over speed bumps and driveways. Check out their site... http://www.umbrellaautodesign.com/co...vrh_suspension

luckyjakob

Yeah it's not too bad. I like the fact that I can always adjust my ride with the push of a button, but don't like the fact that if anything goes wrong with it, there are few shops who know what they're doing with air ride.

As for the overall ride, I'm not terribly worried about that. From what I've noticed in my cousins truck, it didn't completely wreck the ride quality. A little more rough, but not too bad.

With the VRH, I'd be worried about the salt on the roads ripping away at it. At least with the air, salt shouldn't affect the bags

This is a cup kit, replaces the top coilover spring perch. The differences between a cup kit and air bags are that with a cup kit, your lowest height is your ride height, you only raise the car when you need to, but you still have all the benefits of coilovers (stiffness, ride quality, etc.). Many people prefer coilovers over air bags for the stiffness, especially with very aggressive wheel setups, and cup kits offer the adjustability sometimes needed. As an added benefit, if a cup kit fails, your car is still drivable since it's on coilovers, but if an air bag fails, you'll more than likely need a tow home.

luckyjakob

Oh nice. How does price compare to air? Somewhat comparable or total different ball park?

SSM4DR

iTrader: (1)

They're comparable I would say. But if you don't already have coilovers, it'll cost right about the same give or take.

Takata 18

I like the fact everyone is working on one thing or another for their ride. I hope some of these get taken care of before the KC meet next year. Who is planning on going this year?

SSM4DR

iTrader: (1)

Hey Takata 18, seeing that you went from a base to Type S TL in the past. I just wanted to ask you if the differences were worth it? I'm just thinking future wise, rather than to spend $$$ painting my car white. I think it'll be better if I just upgrade to a white TL S whenever I pay mines off. Plus I can transfer all my aftermarket parts over.

GivatiTL

What is the KC meet ? when is that ?

luckyjakob

Depends on when it is.. I might be down for it

Takata 18

Well first of all my other TL was paid for. That was great and my other car was just how I wanted it. The differences were only three things, navi, 6mt and 3.5 engine. The one that was worth it to me was the 6MT. My other car had immaculate paint compare to my new one. I also have put also have put alot of my performance parts from my other car on this one. I am getting to enjoy this one as well. I would not change the color on your car it is the easiest color to keep clean. I would buy a white car if it's what you want.

Takata 18

Last year it was on June 23. I would assume that it is around the same time.

Takata 18

I went the year before last by my self because everyone that said that was going backed out. I was really fun I met 07TLS there and a bunch of other people. JWOLF the dealer that sponsors thi set up a cruise trought the city the nigth before. The meet was great about 60 cars food and drinks and prices plus trophies. Go check out the KC meet 2010 and 2011. Youcan see the photos.

luckyjakob

It'd be nice to get a group to go. Hopefully I can get my car in a position where I'd want to show it off a little by then ha.

I have my Eibach Pro-Kit to install this spring, but want an A-Spec front lip as well as new grill. I decided I'm probably not going to be doing really any performance upgrades to my car.. Just not worth it to me

You know that I'm down!

SSM4DR

Thanks for the quick response. When I pay mines off sometime in October of 2013. I'm assuming that It'll have right around 104k miles on it. So I'm hoping that by that time I can find a Type S with lower mileage so I can sell mines. Get a loan, a good down payment on it as well as transfer my aftermarkets over.

Takata 18

There were cars that were bare bone stock. So do what you can people do not judge it is also for the fun. just like the meets here. We get rooms and split the cost. That works slick.

Takata 18

I know you are is Nile still going I have to satrt saving. I have had some new expences that might put me in the poor house.

NSXTC

iTrader: (1)

Ha! Aren't we all in the poor house?!? If someone here isn't....I could take a donation or two, or three!

I'm sure that Nyle will come down with me. However, he did sell his TL a little while back.

luckyjakob

Yeah, I'd still like to have at least my Eibachs installed and the A-Spec front lip installed as well.

luckyjakob

Anyone order their trunk lip spoiler from ebay? I'm looking to pick one up, but unsure about quality, look, etc.. This is what I was looking at
