Default The Good Ol' Days....

I wanted to make a thread for everyone to post pics of there own car from back in the day!

I went through my old photos on my computer of my car and it made me think of some good times and also made me realize the major milestones I've reached with my car personally. Also looking back, you begin to ask yourself what made you decide to do the certain mods to your car, and what was on your mind during that time.


In no specific order, some of my pictures to start the thread off..


I think this was the first time I washed my car when we bought it




First time the car ever broke down on me, charge piping came off the throttle body. At the time I had no idea what it was and waited about an hour for a tow truck, then figured it out before the tow truck got there.






One of the first local major car meets with my friends, it was a Honda-Tech meet




An interior shot at I think my 3rd car show, also where I won my first trophy :D




My friend and I welded the door bars that autopower provided, it was a crazy experience




Rear view of the car with the roll cage, before we added the X's to the cage




Random photoshoot




Local car meet/bbq




Scion car show up in Washington




Scion d-VIP in Seattle, WA




Engine bay shot before we relocated the battery, and added some other goodies






That's it for now! Eventually more to come, hopefully this thread pics up and everyone posts. I'm really interested in seeing everyone's changes over time with there car and inspirations!

Everyone started out like this minus the fail autozone fogs !



Then I got bit by the JDM bug...


My JDM bite healed and decided to start making things a little cleaner..
Sold all my CF stuff cept the garnish because no one wants it ..
Got me some SSR's like Sid but with an offset that I couldnt poke out...


Needed a better offset so I bought the SSR Vienna Dishes from Kenny's(ihavenosn) friend.. Got these on 2 weeks ago...




I am now saving for another set of wheels.. Hope I dont disappoint ;)

2. Then jump up to a set of 19's with major wheel gap still. Added front oem gfx lip

Size:  114.6 KB

3. Hitler stache ftl! Painted white rims gold. Went a little lower with Ksport coilover...

Name:  CIMG1311.jpg
Views: 45
Size:  93.1 KB

4. Ditched the ksports and got me a set of H&R coilovers. Shaved off the stache. Added the rest of the oem gfx lip kit. Added A.P.T fogs



5. She grew into her 19's! Added spacers for a proper stance. Got rid of the H&R coilovers and adopted some F&F coilovers.



6.Traded the 18" gold rims for a wider wheel and went down a size. 17X9 et28. To be continued....
