my outputs are pretty jacked up right now. When I did the retrofit, I put 4300k on one side, 6000k on the other, to see which one I liked better. I prefer the 6000k better but 4300k clearly has better output. I have yet to swap out the 6000k back to 4300, to top it off, my hid fogs are yellow. So I have too many colors. Laziness owns me

i have 8K in the scion and its too blue for me.. and the 3K is way too yellow ya it may put out more usable light but it sure seems like white helps the eyes alittle more.. plus i like the white on white...

I actually didnt take many pictures from the show.

Mostly just rolling shots on the way up there and some of the drift cars.


And now that i think of it, im not even sure if the TL was there or not.

Ill have to wait until coverage comes out to be sure.


Pics are on my flickr though (link in sig)


Edit: TL wasnt there....i could have sworn i saw it but he rolls a BMW now...oh well.

So is there a meet this weekend or what?!?!? Chris mentioned one to me last week. But I was going to show up to the last meet and you all flaked the day before. So I'm not going to plan on showing up to this one unless you all man up and commit to something. So what's the plan bitches?

Meet 8.16.09

Hi Everyone!

Its been a bit since I've been on here. So, 8th Gen (I have a acura and now a Honda S2000) is having a meet this Sunday, the 16th, and thought it would be cool if you guys showed up too. There are to meeting points. One for the West side and then everyone will drive to the East side to meet peeps who live out there. So, it will start at Sonic in Hillsboro 12pm and then all of those peeps will be driving to the Safeway on 181st and Halsey and plan to be there no later than 2pm. Then we are all going to Ski Bowl to ride the Alpine Slides.

Hope some or all of you can make it! It will be a lot of fun!

Kat

I would but I don't hang out with people from up the freeway in Tigard. Once you cross the Tualatin River, there are a lot of very rude, spoiled, obnoxious people, especially those that go to eat at my work. So NO!!!

Haha, just playin. My fiance is from Tigard and I think we're gettin an apartment there soon. And that Sunday meet does work so much better schedule-wise for me. Maybe it's a two-meet weekend. I just wish my car looked better than stock
Oh well, it's clean and that's what matters

Thats ok. My Acura is pretty much stock...nothing too special just Rims and ground affects. My S2000 is completely stock at the moment.
Tigard is cool. Just stay away from 99W. It is so busy with traffic! I just bought a Townhome up by Bull Mountain a little over a year ago and love it! can take the back rodes into Lake O where I work. So, that is nice!
