If you tap on the rim to focus...you could actually get some detail on them in those outside shots...

Do you have an iphone? Get Camera+, Android? Google's new photo app...windows phone? Well you should be fine if you have a Nokia

Just used the iPhone stock Camera app. I do tap to focus them when I remember to, but all of these were just quick shots. Or my lens is dirty lol.

Hahha yeah... that lens can get dirty.

In case you did not know, if you tap and HOLD, it will lock in your exposure. So that way you can lock the exposure to best capture your wheels while you walk around your car and the external light direction/amount changes.

Today : Got the Nameless 5" muffled tack pipe, and OP/DP combo installed, as well as the TRD quick shifter.

Track pipe sounds awesome, but is pretty damn loud IMO. Cruising it is about as quiet as stock incredibly, but at cold start,idle/low rpm, and hard throttle it gets mean and loud. Going to give it a couple of weeks of daily commute to see how I feel about it.

Quick shifter feels good, but I only went for a short drive since I am sick with a fever today


Also, not today (few weeks ago) but I swapped out the stocks with winters for TSW Nurburgring 17x8 +35 with 235/45/17 MPSS'. Huge difference aesthetically as well as grip-wise.

Pics and whatnot possibly when I don't feel nauseous. Also the poor car is absolutely filthy. Gotta get that fixed soon as well

And I have to say, apartment living sucks for hindering me from doing my own work on my car (took this stuff to a local shop today) and not having access to a hose to do my own car wash. Maybe I'm just spoiled from having lived in my parents house so long, but man it's nice to have a space that's not in anyone's way to do whatever nonsense I want to my car. /endrant

Got my first package of the week from @FT-86 SpeedFactory The guage hood stitching looks flawless. I was expecting a light weve or bend, none! Props to JPM Coachworks!

Sadly it appears my shift knob didn't make it into the box. Not sure if it ships directly from the manufacturer, they forgot it or it is out of stock but, hope to get this resolved asap.

Well, my head unit is on the blink. Just turns off and reboots one or more times each time I drive it. Subaru dealer ordered a new one for me under warranty.

So I am going to add a good backup camera to be installed when they put the new head unit in, which will save me a good amount of money, since I don't install anything while on chemo (this week is my last and all is good, but it will take time for these nasty chemicals that screw up my brainpower to wear off.

Also I am ordering the Mtec spring for the stock shifter. It is already a short throw on the shifter and I will not be racing for anything but fun. Sounds like this spring give a nice feel to upshifting from 2-3 and 4-5 and that is all I need to not miss a gear.

Looking forward to attending some local events and am going to the Circuit of the Americas (Austin F1 track) with the SCAR to watch vintage cars race with an Italian car "artist mechanic" friend who monitors and rebuilds about 5 of the vintage cars that race. He owns a business that caters to vintage Italian cars (Abarth, Alfa, Osca, and special racing FIAT's, but mostly Ferrari Challenge cars and street cars that are out of warranty.

If I pay the fee (might be more than I want to spend on this), I am hoping to get on the track when all the class event are finished. Otherwise I will have to wait till they go to Hallet Raceway where it is free for club members or guests of them.

Hope to see some of you in the DFW area soon, as I start getting out more.
