Thank you! It's nice having a real camera to mess with again rather than just having a phone camera and nothing else.

Some stuff going on:

Doing some custom work to the exhaust tomorrow. Going from a 2.5" tip to a 3.5" chrome slash cut tip. Similar to what Ill_roller is running, just different dimensions and sizing. Going to look a lot better than the small 2.5" tip the nameless pipe has.

Already disabled the DRLs using the DIY found here on the forum. HIDs on the way.

Got my Contour HD camera that my Dad sent me today in the mail. Going to use it for the upcoming drift event in Stroud, Oklahoma on the 27th of this month. If you're in the area and are interested in checking it out, hit me up and I'll give you the info.

I'll post pics after I get everything put on the car and I should have loads of pics and footage from the event.

Love them. They are definitely worth the money. Sure, there are better options out there that offer a better ride, better valuing etc etc but they are all 2x the price of these.

For this price point, I say Stance coils are the best on the market. As a DD and occasional weekend track car, Stance coils kick ass. Highly recommend them to anybody.

No. I'm on 17s with 215/45s and from what I could see when I made final height adjustments, I still had AT LEAST another 1"-1.5" lower I could go.

Whatever tires you're bringing
Jack
Stands
Extra lugs
Sockets/wrenches/tools
Towels
Tire pressure gauge
Work/mechanic gloves


^thats pretty much all I bring. Similar to whatever you would bring to a normal track day. I fit it all in the trunk as well. Just keep in mind what the weather will be during the event. A decent size cooler and a folding chair or two also comes in handy when you're taking a break

Do you do the pedal dance or do you just hold the traction control to turn it off?

Sounds good. Towels are just to lay on so you aren't getting your clothes nasty and to wipe of your hands. House towels work fine.

Hold traction control button to turn off. Go out and fun.

*IF YOU ASK, PEOPLE ARE ALWAYS WILLING TO HELP. People are always pretty friendly. Just find somebody who knows what they're doing and ask them to ride shotgun.

Drifting is easy. Just takes seat time and practice.

Placed the order for my wing!! Hopefully get the shipping confirmation sometime this week. Should take about 3-4 weeks to get it after it gets shipped from Japan.

Here's what the wing looks like:


Picture is of AJ's (ill roller) car. Absolutely love it. The best duckbill available for this car. Flows so well with the stock body lines and just the right amount of flash. Everything else was either too subtle or too over the top for me. I feel like this is just right.

Pics will be up when I get it.

Drift event next weekend. Been getting everything adjusted and ready to go out and have a good showing. Tires and additional camera mounts will be here this week so I'll have loads of pics and footage to share.

Stay tuned
