the bumpers are diff - so i believe they are sortof just designing diff tips for the same system.

correct me if im wrong someone?

 

They are working on Aero products now.

If im correct, they only make enough for the deposits they get. There is one for sale on the BM for $1100 i think. But he is not willing to ship.

It would fit length wise. But the opening on a TypeS is 10 inches, base is only 6-7 inches. So it wouldnt fit right.

 

cuz a type-s comes stock with quad tip exhaust

 

The other day i snagged some ATLP Quad tips off the black market and today i emailed Mike from ATLP what my chances are of sending them to him and put on some Stromung mufflers. Hopefully i get good news soon...

Then all be that asshole with two ATLP Quad Set-ups

 

so in theory you could get it and either cut the opening alittle more or get a type s bumper? arent we all made of money? haha

 

Well...no.

The ATLP Quads only work on a TypeS bumper or a base bumper with cuts made and a typeS rear lip

The ATLP Base could work with type s bumper, but you would have a couple inches of gap on the sides of the tip.

 

and sell them to me



finally pulled a trigger on 18x8.5 +40 today. finish will be hyper silver.

 

^^which rims did you get?

 

chance of snow again Thur morning

 

Hmm....that size and color name sounds like.....

 

those the enkei's??

 

meh

 

AME is manufactured by Enkei.

 

they look nice!

ordered my rear sway bar yesterday.. should get it by friday.. I feel bad too cause i still havent installed my rear camber kit or my altenator pulley.. i have more projects for my car then i can chew... haha oh well..

 

looks like we are having system issues here

 

well get on your installs! lol

 

its been raining.. and cold.. i dont function well in either

 

bingo

your too good at guessing.
but few problems came up today...


Monday - put down $900 for enkei rpf1 18x8.5 but distributor closed

Tuesday - jj actually called in ame and confirm that 18x8.5 +40 and +45 is in stock and i can get it by next week. both offset clears the 4pot brembos

Today - went to speed to pay up the rest and jj shows me the pics of tracer tm-02




ame-wheels.com only used tracer name on the tm-02 and jj never thought i was talking about fs-01 when i said tracers. so called ame again and they only have +48 offset for the 18x8.5. they said it'll clear the brembos but not 100% sure and have to wait for this one guy to come back from lunch for the proper fitment. also only THREE wheels are in stock for this size/finish. no two but three wheels..

 

acutally 4 wheels are in stock
but not 100% positive about +48 offset
they'll fax in a template to check the caliper clearance

i'm pretty sure it'll not clear with +48 offset. even the aspecs (18x8.5 +45) barely clears calipers and i don't like using spacers. if it doesn't clear, i'll either go back to rpf1 or just stay with the aspecs and use that money for good vacation

 

man those look way hotter.. remind me of mine only in a hyperblack, cant tell if the lugs will be tuner style or regular.. its the only thing i hate about my rims is they are tuner and i bought the neochro R26g not knowing they dont fit =( so had to put them on the scion (wasted 200 bucks)

 

The TM-02's are awesome too. But i wouldnt want to be you trying to clean them. The spokes are not only split side to side, but front to back. This reduced alot of weight, but cleaning would be a real choir.

And i swear if they have the FS-01s in stock now, its probably my lost order!!!

 

ok so this is wierd but was that you that was at SC today? I think you were surfing AZ on the laptop while i was in there? was reading your posts when i got home and realized that

 

Actually now that i look at it...The spokes are not split front to back, but only dented in.

 

are you the one that bought rays blue lugs?
yea i was the one sitting on the chair waiting for ame to call back

 

but didn't you ordered the 19s? i'm going with the 18s

and yea i thought the spokes were split too but looking at your new pics, they were just shadows where its concaved in



but this pics sure does looks like they are split spokes. from what i know they have two versions.

 

Ha Min did this to me once, i was sitting at the computer looking some shit up, and he was asking my about my TL. I didnt know it was him untill i looked in the bay and saw his car on the lift

Yea mine were 19's. I could have sworn i read in a magazine that these were multi split spokes to reduce weight. Shoot stillhere a pm. He is like the wheels dictionary.

 

but anyways... hard choice..

tm-02 looks nice too but i think i'll look dinky with the lips when i'm going with the 18s. although rpfs do have lips too but they look bigger like other wheels with no lips.

scotterson's tl with 18" rpf1s









will definitely get the fs-01 if template testing comes out positive
but otherwise i'll just back off from wheel buying untile something better comes out

 

Yea that was me. I also ordered new tires and stupid me didnt know i need the thin tuner style lugs so now i gots to go back and exhange them.

 

they need to make some nice looking tuner style lugs.. like the neochro or some titanium ones

 

Project Kics Caliber 24's ftw.

 

those look nice.. i need the reverse style though..

 

was checking the kics lugs at sc but i wasnt willing to shell out $150+ for a set of lugs.

 

kics caliber lugs are very hot. only one left at sc

 

UGH... the snow.. is it spring time yet? cant believe that on march 6th its already time to set the clocks forward

 

Ah I hate setting the clock ahead, feels sooooo hard lol

 

Kyle - bag your car and get it as low as your avatar!

 

Whoa....prices went up then.

Thanks to you, i have mine lol.

Im working on it. A guy that is a friend of a couple of the guys on the team knows some people. Gave them a call, and they could get me on air for $2100 I need to get this dog house trained so i can get a job. Although, i still have a good deal of money owed to me by the VA, and i could sell my TEINs....hmmmm

 

Ah man....got some bad news today about my tips i picked up.


From AznBo187 of ATLP

So now im hoping i can get a template/measurments from him so im not going into a exhaust shop blind.

 

That's a good freakin deal

 

that sucks.. hopefully you get the templates or something..


youll be house training for a while.. good thing there isnt any jobs out there yet.. my gut feeling is around summer it will pick up slowly..

you missing any socks yet? haha.. my wifes boxer ate there socks all the time when he was a puppy..
