Nice

 

Are those Mallards on that sign?

 

Varstoen's and rota's look exactly like that but, have lugs that align with the valve stem, rubber valve stems and no back spacing for extended lugs. It's really hard to tell the difference sometimes.

 

Tee Eees!



Looks good man.

 

Those look awesome!

As a fellow Texan, I'll need to seek you out in person sometime and admire your car.

 

the best thing about the rims; the gas mileage. OMG, i never had this kind of gas mileage before!

 

Lol really!

 

im dead serious!!

ive always averaged about 19-20 mpg
in the last week, im averaging 21-22mpg!
and i bet with further refinement in my driving style, i can get it higher!

 

 

Unf. Hello.

Justin, the weight loss helps!! Also the tires. They're probably not your usual super duper sticky UHP tires, right?

 

You wanna get really crazy, just buy some low rolling resistance tires which are shit through. And some Aero. But the aero part is stupid looking.

You should be able to change directions really well now, stop faster, accelerate better. Just be lighter on your feet overall.

 

right!
I'm using the khumo Exta's or whatever the faa they are.
I weighed my stock rims with summer tire on last night. 47.8lbs.
i'll weigh the new rims later today!

oh, i expected to be lighter on my feet, just i guess i over looked the gas mileage aspect of it.
and I am loving it.
its like a game now to me.
"see if i can get the highest MPG on each drive" game

 

If you really want to win that game, go buy a Prius

 

nice wheels indeed. don't understand how you rub though.

 

The "new, old" f14s

 

bcuz 4x4

 

suspension is too soft.

i remember installing the koni's and one shock was giving me trouble. as in, the damping adjustment seized.
so, I have 3 corners on pretty much full stiff, but that one shock is still stuck on full soft.

which, now, I realize its bad for the car to run different damping settings as one side will not rebound like the other.
so, one tire is getting shredded as I hit dips in freeways.
Ive never hit a pothole, as I avoid them...but dips in freeways like transitions from freeway to bridge to freeway, I rub.

 

Nice wheels!

Glad you have coils coming

 

holy noob batman

 

lol.


<---Noob

 

Lol. <3

 

ill fix it tho, with the coils.

 

Jumping on the coil train. Chew chew!

 

^^^^ You mean "choo choo"?

 

Nice pictures! Looks gooooood

 

BC coilovers
12kg front
10kg rear





1 man 1 day install.

not happy with front will fuck with it tomorrow

 

 

It doesn't look any different

How much lower do you plan on making it?

 

not much at all.
here is my final height, i think.

 

 

need moar low

 

The front looks great. However, the rear should match.

What are your ground to fender measurements?

 

I really enjoy the rake look. I think the rear is perfect and may raise the front a few millimeters

 

Nice, Justin......

 

Wheels look great!

 

Looks like something Acura would've had on their website

Love how uncluttered your TL looks

 

that's the look i'm going for.
While i love the rear spoiler and window spoiler, I dont think I'm going to add them.

i'll add the aspec kit tho.
type-s rear aspec with type-s side aspec with 04-05 base front aspec.
and probably finish it off with fog lights

but thats about it as i want to keep it "uncluttered"

 

i love how your car looks justin!

 

I'm not sure I had ever seen your car before this thread...

Wheels look great, but I think some sort of Volk sticker would finish them off. And I like your stance on the coils! Just because you have em doesn't mean you need to be slammed.

 

Looks awesome, Justin! Did you happen to take a head on pic to show the camber (if any)?
