was followed yesterday on West Union coming out of hillsboro towards 185th by a 2nd gen SSM TL lowered, wheels, HID foggies around 4:15 or so, turned left on 185th. Any of you?

+1 for modding the DD! I think I remembered when you first got the 240 you were gonna drive it as a "junker"

that sounds like fobstylez


it was going to be a daily junker but i've changed my mind after finding out fx drinks more than expected

after replacing old suspension parts, i'll be looking for manual tranny swap or might even go for sr20det/manual swap.

So who was the guy in the Black 2nd Gen TL lowered on 3rd Gen Wheels with Comptech looking exhaust who was going 45mph on I205, then 10 under on McGloughlin, then made a left hand turn from the center lane at a light yesterday afternoon?

I hope you are on here, because your lame ass hoodie was really gay with a fur lined hood. Learn to drive douche.

Kyle - Gotta question for ya. The A-Specs you used to have...did they have a ball seat or a tapered 60 degree seat. I'm confusing myself on which lugs I should get for my 19" A-Specs since I don't really know whether to consider them OEM or aftermarket

I ran my KICs on my ASPECs and they were the Conical Shaped Lugs. Not sure about the 19's though. Pull off one of the lugs and see what you got?

So you would consider them OEM wheels? Cuz I'm leaning more towards that but I can't find sets where all lugs are locks for ball seat lugs..if that makes any sense.

Well the thing is I have aftermarket 17" wheels on my ride right now that the car came with when I bought it. I don't know what they are either but I assume conical/tapered lugs since they are aftermarket wheels. I need to get closed end lugs for the A-Specs anyways since my current wheels have a cap to hide the ugly stud ends but I wanna get it right and not have any problems with fitment in any way to avoid any vibrations and whatnot...

Man, the guy at Le Car did a really good job. I just took a close look at my tint, and he gets the tint probably less than 1 millimeter away from the top edge of the window. The $500 tint job at Ron Tonkin Acura gets you about 1/8" away from the edge.

Just an observation I made

Need to bring that reaction time down


I went out to Woodburn today with my dad for some drags. I must say i like that instead of a bunch of kids in civics running 18sec+ 1/4 miles, it was mainly 11sec and below muscle cars. That and its not in the middle of the night...so it makes for getting pictures 123423423x easier
