Jason,

My side splitter addition is holding up very well. It's been driven in the rain a lot ever since i put them on. They look glorious.

How is your tsx project coming along? If I were you, the car would come out of the shop with a completely different colored paint scheme. But as most of us have learned, to each their own. Destroying your car and then having it painted the same exact color is one big facepalm for me.

I keep seeing a white 04-06 WDP lowered on gold rotas i believe around my area on Sunset Rd.

Well the car was leaving walgreens, and i passed it.
Then he followed for a minute then took off.

Who is that? Forgot his name but looks like Akrapovics cousins car that works at that shop on Harris Blvd?

That poor car. I abused her so much. lol She just takes it.



So the lexus probably needs a new rear differential. It took quite a few guys to figure out what exactly is making the clicking/clanking noise that is dependent on rotation and progressive acceleration. The noise comes and goes on it's own. Braking makes it dissipate. Doesn't click in reverse. So weird.

Here she is at my faithful buddies shop Eurowise.



FYI that rear lip is spray painted by yoar one and only ricer, ME! lol






Also my buddy painted the red pieces on the yakima bike rack, and we also effed around with the bike and applied some stickers and installed a sun auto hyper voltage system. probably will end up wrapping the fairing with wraptivo as well.

Each day that goes by without me seeing your tsx complete I will do one ricer mod. Either to the TL, the is300, or the bike. I will alternate which one to modify. The sooner I see tsx complete, the less ricer mods you will see. HAHAHAHHAHAHAHA.

Yeah, I loved the fat tires. The wheels looked great on there, too. I'd say it's time to make a change .

Thanks for your positive comments. They are much appreciated Sir. I wonder how much 17inch tires will be.

Ive found that some 18s are actually cheaper then 17s. It all depends on the size though. Popular sizes are always cheaper.

It's time to change the ATF. Any of you guys know of a RedLine oil dealer locally?

Someplace I can just walk in and pick up what I need? Or, at worst, give 'em a call to order and then pick the order up a couple days later?

When is your car going to be done.

I've got a ricer mod right here beside me that i'm about to start working on. This time i'm not telling anyone how i did it. It's going to be one of those 'wait, wut, where did you get that' mods lol.
