Some shots from Hot Import Nights SJ this past Saturday. Was an amazing show. We didn't win anything but had an amazing time regardless!

 

 

Had a photo shoot the other day. I took my front splitter off too. Well not me but a driveway did the job for me haha.

 

Looks great man! Wheels are very unique

 

Love those wheels! Concave yet simple, and the finish is fantastic on a silver TL.

 

TL looks good-sorry to hear about the front splitter.

 

Thank you!

 

So I had a pretty bad scare with my car. Yesterday while driving my CEL began to flash on and off but the car was driving perfectly. Looked it up and nearly everywhere, it said it is a misfire. Since the spark plugs were replaced 11k miles ago, I had a feeling it would be something expensive to fix. Today I got the codes pulled even though the CEL turned off. 32 were pulled and we went ahead and cleared them. Went for a drive and a couple ABS codes popped up again. My buddy reset the entire system and so far its been okay. I'm going to check all my wheel speed sensors and the module under the hood. I was expecting the worst but thankfully it isn't a hard fix.

Lots of scares lately!

 

Loved the read. The wheels remind me of old skool Ferrari wheels. Very nice.

 

I was so relieved find out it wasn't anything major

Thank you

 

So after about 1 month, I finally washed my car again. I also polished the paint for my first time. Came out pretty nice to me!

Super nice!

 

Clean!

 

Nice job.

 

New taillights! Also put in new LED fog light bulbs, and new license plates are getting picked up from the DMV tomorrow.

 

Sweet deal, man!

 

car is pure sex!

 

your car came together nicely man! for some reason I still like the stock wheels on your car over what you have now lol

 

Gorgeous TL!

 

what lip is that man? I just got the 2011-2014 sti lip the other day, haven't put it on yet though.

Yours looks great

 

Thank you!!

Thanks! I personally love these wheels. It is the 04-06 Sti lip. A driveway took it off for me though so currently I just have the A-Spec.

 

Excuse the quality. I need a new phone. But got my new license plates on!

 

Hell yeah!

 

Nice! Great plate.

 

I painted them again. I need to stop. I think this is like the 6th or 7th time

 

Nice color on the brakes.

 

Step away from the Brembo's and no one will get hurt......

 

I reeaaaaalllly need to be stopped haha

 

They look great!

 

Hard to paint, or just time consuming? I can do some fairly hard repairs on the UA6, but I've been so lazy about painting the calipers.

Also noticed you're in SR; I'm in Pleasanton if you ever need help with any work done

 

To be honest very simple, just do light even coats and it'll build up nicely. I'll PM you my number and I can help you do it one day.

 

that colour on the brembos look great on your car.

 

I'm curious how you paint your calipers- do you actually remove them every time, or just paint them in place?

Car are looks great. I'd say the only thing it needs (the same thing mine needs ) is that insert for the Type S rear lip.

 

taco... your TL needs more than one thing lol

 

I paint them in place, I just mask it all off. And I know I need the insert but I'm going to wait until it bothers me to get it haha

 

what do you mean insert?

And I'm sure I've asked you this before and I'm sorry but are your fenders rolled? and what are the specs of those wheels. Thanks man

EDIT: NM found the specs! I like that fitment. But are you rolled? I have 18x9 +45 on a 235/40 and my shit is sunken in but I dont want to roll my fenders.

Also did you paint that suburau lip? It looks real glossy. Mine is more flat black?

 

its the missing type s honeycomb that goes under the type s aspec.

 

My fenders aren't rolled because one has bondo from me getting hit a while back. So I cut the lip that sticks out on each of the rear fenders and cut the bumper tab up front. Rear still rubs. I need a camber kit to kick the wheels in a tad bit more. You should be able to run a 15mm spacer all around without having to roll. I didn't paint the lip, it came like that
