Nice, I didn't even know most of that first stuff existed.
yay!
Finally! I really like this car. It makes me want to help my friend fix up his z31 300zx this summer.
.
mmm nice quality
heavy
looks great mang. lol wtf with welding a bend into the headers? the front bank hits the rear bank in a weird way... why not just go some brand new ones?
.
I have heard you talk about this car non stop since you bought it, nice to see a timeline of pics I have in my recived documents folder haha
Glad you stuck with it, makes me want to actually fix up my Camry
.
Man you really opened the flood gates ppk.
iiiaaannn, get her road worthy.
.
"that's what she said"
.
what then?
"i smell"? lol.
What are you making stickers for?
"BRYCE IS GOOD"?
"Vtak"?
.
It is good to getting car together by someone who loves it, I really like
It really does inspire me to get work done on my own cars. In fact, I'm placing the order for the paint for the Chevelle friday.
.
yeah im wanting for my front end and rear going to stay the way it is cant fix at this moment witch suck but eh keep up with yours ? is its a Series 1 it looks it i know the tails arnt lol
.
what year is it again? lol
.
ah its like mine Vw Jetta Coupe 1984 (but built on December 3rd 1983) i love that color on the Z need a new coat of clear or new paint lol same color though
wow man. i didnt even remember when your Z actually looked like a piece of turd. now it looks cool. i think your pipes need a polish.
.
.
I spy some grammatical errors.
Missing apostrophes and comma splices specifically. But it's all good. I love them. Get better pics though, I can't read the top ones.
.
hahahah, beast.
.
iiaaannn. hurry bro.
.
Thats some fairly serious metal flake, you didn't use that dupli color stuff did you?
.
lol keep going yo. they look pretty sweet.
I LOVE WHAT YOU DID THERE
keep it up!
well man i'll tell you what. you sure have inspired me to put some f**king effort into my car now
I agree with Tim. I don't even own the Focus, in fact it's a shared ownership, about 80%-20% my dad's favor, but seeing what you did there over time, I think some personalization may be necessary.
.
bryce... im sure you mean tim...
Yes. It was like 2 AM and I just glanced at his signature. That registered in my overly tired brain as his name somehow, so I stuck with it.
Cool cool.
.
omg ur so low BAHAHA
i want to see the final stance damnit. it's cool how much work you put into it. i want to see the color when you buff it lol
.
I swear to f**king god, If you say 'meow' instead of 'now' once more, i'm flying my taught English ass over to your house and re-beating the living s**t out of your 280 again.
...Build thread is coming along nicely, by the way.
.
So yeah...paint it Purple MEOW!
.
Fine...
Metallic Light Bloo. Meow.
.
IS THAT A DONK ? , WEAK OFFSET BRO
i can't wait to see this thing slammed. i wanna see sparks in a video.
.
:U i dont know nothing abou offset or camber lol
I think he means the lack of poke, and how far the wheels are in from like the outside of the fender
lol s**ttest offset ever needs spacers ASAP
Edit: i am misunderstood. Nevermind lol
.
f them! just slam nao!
.
that is soo low. now you need a big front liip to make it look lower like ricers
.
.
noezzzz you need better wheels to go well with the camber.
.
i'll give you my rubber, i must warn it's used
looks really cool
.
.
i want your car.
lol really do have no intentions of being able to corner
.
NEEDS SUM COOL WATANANABEBES WITF SUM RULL NICE STICKRS THEY AD 12 HP U KNO
.
ONLY TEH VTAK STICKAZ ADD 12HP. THE REST ADD 5HP.
.
his z could ramp off of the front of your z.
You should get the panda thing he has :3
.
wow bud is looking really HOT
what happened with the boso exhaust ?
.
.
that's the first thing i did to my raider :U
.
the third one is really cool
.
mmm
Some of your peas from dinner got on your wheel.
.
Aww thats bad..
bbrrrooo, i think you are not ment to have the car... just give it tome.
Couldn't you technically sue for that? And if you did, it's not asking for much, and since you'll have proof (The stud is still there I assume), the company will probably just give in and avoid the hassle of court. No joke. Maybe you could even get an extra couple thousand if you milk them hard enough. Get the wheels fixed and more.
-Damage to personal property
-Future loss of earnings
-Emotional distress
.
yeah your lucky thats all it ripped through, but its still unfortunate s**t that you just dont need.
And you ask me why my car isn't that low Guarantee roads are worse in my area...
But seriously, that kinda sucks hardkore.
.
.
VRY CLL
damn the frame stuff is really bad
bomd the rear panel with a "It Sucks To Roll Hard" sticker
I SAW THESES FIRST!
i want your car
lol i made it in mc la
ill upload them in a sec
LOL andrew
Andrew- Since when are seconds twelve hours long?
PPK- LOVE THEM! But you should have gotten them made of transparent aluminum.
lol sorry bryce i dont know how to upload pics from mc la
OMG i had a pair on a 1985 Mustang but there were Yellow LMAO
nice they be killer on the Datsun dude
i forgot the name of them
.
Okay then what every and get your facts straight they weren't Center Lines
Very cool, hey PPG I am putting this wheels on my skyline r31
.
i know they weren't Centerline i would of remember that but the ones i had there were some other company i just cant remember the name of them some unheard of company
.
Paint your pontiac.
.
Simon says paint your Pontiac.
I love your zetto man, keep working on it!
.
painting the bird would be #1 on my list.
love those wheels man they sit perfect. get tires nao!
What's the bolt pattern on your z?
4X114.3?
Alright. I guess I could have been not lazy and googled it.
Darn, so I can't have you send me the rims to put em on my civic
.
Cool car man what else are u going to do to it ?
.
i love the progress pics you send me
Do you think about selling the car ? or do u want to keep it ? and also would u make a good profit restoring cars like that ?
its always comes down to how much one will pay for it. Thats what i always find
its only worth what the buyer going to pay it for
.
It would be amazing if more people would have the same attitute to cars as you do , over here they treat cars like ,things, you are talking about it like its a part of your family , any way all the best with the car ^^
Yeah. A car is about the same as a dog.
You see it and love it, then you buy it and can't stop thinking about it, and spend a lot of time with it. You learn everything about it and it becomes your friend. You smile when you see it and you refuse to believe it won't last forever. You take care of it and play with it and show it love. Then, one day, it leaves you. You never have any control over it. It just goes away. It's a soul-crushing moment in your life, and you never fully get over it.
But there are people out there who dye their dog's fur and buy it clothes, or who buy useless crap for their car without thinking of how it will look. They show it off like it's the most beautiful thing in the world, but deep down you see a gentle soul that was meant to be more, and is instead being tortured with nothing to ever hope for again.
There are also people who don't care about it. It does its job and they don't think twice. They are happy when it's gone, because they get money. They're heartless.
wow, that came from the heart bryce
It certainly did. I just made a thread about it.
I'm going to miss seeing updates on this...
+1
choose wisley with the paint. you have to see it everyday . Anything going on with the interior?
Ian is banned...
hahahahahahy pwnt.. maybe if he stops bring mean to certaint peeps he can come back. :U
.
LOLWUT
actually nvm, I like the way the thread looks now.
nvm
I find it hard to believe you are you.
nvm
removed per request by ppk.
its not him, he doesnt like text language
He also uses capitalization.
he's asking me to delete my post.
bleh, it's me, idfc, this forum is stupid so I don't want you to know what's gone down/is going down with my Z.
But I want to know.
do I not have your MSN and am talking to you right meow?
The more you post, mystery moderator, the less believable it is...
EDIT: Especially since that last post was nowhere near PPK's intelligence level.
bryce...
Okay... But seriously, I think PPK is just in on it which is why he's telling you all this on MSN.
we want ian back
^totally agree
the moderators do a good job PPK, infact their too kind. i woulda banned you a couple years ago if i was a mod
Aw... I thought you said you didn't care about this place and that PCA sucked? I guess not.
You should be grateful that booger unbanned you. and If your gonna keep the attitude, don't expect to be here much longer.
LOL EPIC f**kING BUMP
looks better than last time i seen it floating on the webs.
Now make a pixel or gtfo
lolz
hell nah, too busy buying wheels and drifting
which side was the fender damage on? did you fix that yet?
Cool to see that car again though.
hell no, f**k this car.
I'm getting a new one I don't even give a f**k
new wheels, new aero, paint, more cool s**t on the new shell. so pumped for it.
why'd you bump the thread if the cars not going to be updated then?lol
new thread for new ride or gtfo
also, better be another shakotan or nuts will be kicked
Is that a spoiler? Show the rear
dam dude you should get a nx100
good to see you back bby <3
car looks good
test-fitting one of my "new" wheels
16x12 -23
need to finish restoring these asap, I wanna see if I can seat some 215/50s on them lol
eventually want 225/40s, and hope to debut them at JCCS
damn thats wide
extreme stretch would look insane
If by update he means "f**king up more" I want to see more updates.
215s on a 12 haha I'm outing 215s on my 9s
Couldn't you go lower profile with less stretch?
then it wouldn't be as "cool" and therefor no, he wouldn't.
actually, that would require money lol 215s came with the wheels, so I'm just gonna throw them on so I can put them on the car and decide if I like them or not
plan on getting 225/40 T1Rs if I decide to rock them to JCCS
i saw 215/40's on 14x10 yesterday, and that was massive stretch lol
yeah the 215/45/17's im puting on my 17x9's have a bit a stretch, i cant even fathom 215's on a 12.
Thats a 215/45 on a 9inch rim like i will have.
I meant something like 235/30
I have 30s and they still look pretty meaty especially with less stretch even on my 18s. I would imagine they would look even meatier on a smaller wheel too.
lol
find 235/30-16
they make 245/35-16 which sounds like a rad size, but idgaf, my dumb car doesn't need big tires.
looks very cool, i like that offset tooo . . . : ))
lols
215s wouldn't seat, dgaf
went streeting in the rain, smacked a curb, dgaf
went streeting some more
found a nail in a tire, dgaf
didn't give one single f**k about the whole thing
Thats true you don't give a single f**k.
You give two f**ks.
naw n***a I'm good
lower it
that's trademarked, bitch.
http://www.uspto.gov/
Couldn't find it under trademarks.
What color you planning for the new car?
ALL OF THEM
Similar to this
zomo
new wheels are coming along
BRASIL HEAUEHAUEHAUAE BR BR BR
for the faggots that don't know what they are
except wider with a sh*t-ton of stretch I'm sure.
Welcome to the future, we have been waiting for you.
lol that's not even what I have
oh my god
i bet they have more than 2 spokes
if they dont, wtf
two spokes are badass
but I prefer 3 spokes (probably why I f**king love Advans)
last one totally fit ur car Ian!!!
yes, they represent you
Minilite/Superlite/Watanabe style i guess. Maybe ROTA RB?! ::::::::::
He already showed the brand Black Racing.
these. barelled like a mofo
so more like this.
I really really really hope jred can tell the future
lol pretty much, actually. but mine will have larger lips.
just found out last night that no one makes reverse lips in 16" so I'm f**ked for getting new ones.
only options are:
mill face down, weld into 16" barrel= 2pc welded
widen current lips (hoping for this one, haven't checked to see if anyone can/will do it)
or 18" 3pc (LOL.)
(although, my car doesn't look terrible on 18s)
rim tucking like a king
I can just go -7 camber up front to help clearance issues. I'm at -4.5 currently and I used to rub going straight... I think the fender pulled itself on the 700+ mile trip to CA lmao
well, you said you're getting a new ride soon? If I was you, i'd keep it for the new one and would stay on the old wheels, even tho it looks pretty damn cool on those white ones
I'm switching shells, dipstick.
reading comprehension on this forum sucks lol
When are you getting the new shell?
It's in my "possession" currently, but it's way up north of here at the bodyshop I was gonna have the quarters swapped at.
need to get the house ready for the car first, though (clear out a spot in the yard)
Nice, are you putting in the new engine while swapping s**t over?
new engine is still missing at least half the s**t to put it together lol that's a long way off
Pardon sir, pardon. Tho i haven't seen any posts saying you got 3pc wheels + Mkid was still guessing and so was I. Anyway, more photos of car please.
this is what $30 buys these days
thats a weird looking bra
^ lmao!
so I bought this at JCCS and installed it 20mins later at the show. just now got around to taking pics of it
and had to powder coat my strut rings to match
not bad for powder I bought over a year ago not even thinking about Cusco blue lol
damn that subframe looks familiar
Notice a difference in handling or think its just a bling mod? I would think it should make a pretty big difference because your frame probably isn't as rigid as it once was... if it ever was. lol
up to 22 wheels now
good for you, you must be proud
on a serious note, what size are those?
who the f**k cares about wheel sizes when you're as cool as ian
I thought that was one of the few things he actually does care about?
lol Daniel, for "disliking" me as much as you say you do, you follow all of my posts awful carefully.
they're terrible sizing/offsets. just gonna refinish and flip these.
they're 16x7 +32, 16x8 +38. but overall the wheels are in extremely good condition and should restore nicely and easily.
lol, why would someone even stagger wheels that close in size.
Oh well, make them look pretty and get dat dolla
My weds are already getting all chipped up just from daily driving. They may be relatively light and strong, but whatever finish they use on them sucks ass. Any tips?
get them powder coated.
I've always heard that powder coating wheels weakens them. Not sure if that has been proven by any scientific means though.
It makes them to look better why making it weak?
because the process heats up the aluminum in the wheel to near its melting point... i think.
LOL AT UIUI
Andrew
I plan on powder coating them lol
and that's just a rumor, the highest temp I've ever powder coated something at was 450*F, not even close to f**k anything up. and that was just to melt the powder, once it "flowed out" I set the temp back down to 400*F.
Baking with Ian.
If you don't heat the wheels past the 'critical temperature' for whatever the metal may be, then it won't weaken them. Once you pass the critical temperature, you're starting to heat treat the metal, which lowers the strength of the metal.
Most good professional powdercoaters should know this, but it's still a good idea to talk about it with them before having a job done. There are some lower temp powders that can be used if needed.
In other words, if the right precautions aren't taken for cast aluminum wheels, yes it could weaken the wheels.
rattle can em, use paint polish and clear coat and evrything
ok
got all this s**t for free this past week
So do HKS coilovers look like D2 coilovers or do D2 coilovers look like HKS coilovers.
Also, don't throw that sh*t away, they will find you.
what do those wheels look like flipped lol
HKS and D2 look nothing alike, are you retarded lol
those wheels flipped look like the 12s I tested earlier.
^Not S13. S13 is black and purple.
at any rate, they still look nothing alike.
HKS have springs with built-in helper springs (kinda sucks but whatevs lol)
HKS are only spring height adjustable, not body adjustable
HKS are inverted monotube (racecar s**t)
etc etc
Y so srs. I was only talking about the colors. lol
you didn't even get the colors right lol
Children! settle down!
aww yeah free s**t is best s**t
WELD ALL THE PARTS WITH ALL THE WELDING
Skidzzzz
lol I've already had a welded for like a year
current diff keeps breaking the welds, though :|
decided to just buy another diff, clean the s**t out of it and weld it way stronger.
diff says "F*CK YOU!"
sup n****rs
looks very cool are they weds or advan nice choice
no boso pipe
wot a fekin feg
I'm kinda surprised this car is still on the road
Liking the new look a wee bit.
Need fender mirrors doe.
