Yeah I know that M3. The pic I posted is the new M4 chopped to make it look like that M3

If you look closely, those side skirts in the chop are actually the Voltex street sides for the s2000.

I'm not sure how I would be able to compose myself if I saw this in real life due to it's immense perfection.

Andrew, the owner, said he is going to keep going with this thing. We were discussing a custom rear mount wing for starters.

Last night before bed Dorthy told me she looked up something online and I thought to myself 'cool'. haha

Well today at lunch she brought it up again and I asked her what could this mystery search be. She told me she was looking up 'headers' for her car because i'm always talking about how it needs to be a little faster. I was completely mindblown at this because it's never really crossed my mind that there are actually headers for that car. She said she had thought about ordering some and having eurowise install them while she is at work and then wait and find out if I noticed anything different.

haha I guess that was her way of telling me she would like some headers for her car. I'm already browsing ebay. Those things are cheap as hell.

If anyone is bored or interested in seeing spy shots of the new TLX...this is me kindly directing you to the 4th gen TL section. [A very desolate section of the forum.]

Dude I posted images of the TLX in the TLX thread and someone posted an image of that up with 3 camo images and it made my eyebrows raise the fuck up. Whatever it is I immediately thought it looks awesome. Hopefully it will be a reality.

Eric for headers for the IS look into a company called PPE. They are based in Arizona and make some awesome stuff for the 2nd Gen IS and I think they make some for the 1st Gen as well.

Typo


Eric check out this thread. It seems to have a pretty comprehensive information on headers for the IS300 and what is good and bad.

Nah, the J-series doesn't have enough aftermarket support. Or maybe they could remap the ECU to make it easier to tune

Attention:

South charlotte people. The new 7 eleven is open as of a couple hours ago (the one by the walmart in Indian Land). On Friday from 11-6 they are giving away free slurpees and car washes. I actually managed to get a free one today for being the first customer hehe. Apparently one of my buddies is a manager of the car wash there. He was telling me how high tech it was. It's one of those Sam's express washes.

Walk out of my apartment this afternoon to go to class and glance over at my car as I'm walking to the bus just to check her out like I always do and what do I see. Some mother fucker nailed the shit out of my front number and just dipped out no note or anything. Great first day of classes let me tell you. I'm livid. Will post pictures later once I get on my laptop. Going searching around the parking lot today and going to look at everyone's car and see if I can find paint transfer and going to go to the main office and see it there's any cameras in the parking lot. This is unbelievable.
