Got everything on and have been pretty busy with meets the past few weeks. I've got Wekfest to get ready for next weekend so I'm still pretty busy to say the least.



As for mods, everything is done for now and right now I have another set of headlights at Oracle this week so they can install new halos and paint the housings.

After Wekfest I'm taking a serious break (FOR REAL THIS TIME GUYS) from spending money on the car, maybe a few cheap things here and there but I've spent WAY too much money on it this month, and I might go broke if I don't stop soon lol.

I'm trying to get the RC car up and running for Wekfest too, I've got a new motor and ESC in and I'm still waiting on a battery and charger, but so far it's coming along nicely. I'm pretty excited to see how it runs once I get it all together.



I'll be sure to keep yall updated on the car and I'll post pictures from Wekfest as well.

On another note, I just posted up a butt load of pictures to my photography page from this past weekend and I'm barely half way done, so be sure to check them out to see some of the Houston car scene.

SkillFreeJake

Sorry guys I know I've been slacking

Not too man crazy changes as of late but I'll post what I can-

Got the headlights on and they're looking sweet. I can actually see at night!



Been to a few meets lately



Got a few new small things, shift ****, black lugs and finally got a strut brace.


bad pic

And lastly, I got hit. It was bound to happen one day. Some moron in a Suburban (with no insurance of course) backed into me as I was enjoying some bomb tacos not even 15ft away. Luckily we caught the guy and the PD are having their way with him and I'm getting repaired right now.

The damage -


Rocking the rental for the next few days -


So yeah. Luckily my insurance covers it and hopefully that idiot will be getting a hefty ticket in the mail.

PS, I'm trying to sell my old Klutch wheels locally, if you're interested I'm asking $1300 local pick up only. Let me know if you're interested.



Till next time!
Whenever that'll be lol

Well the car's been out of repair and looking good for a few weeks. I'm pretty satisfied with how they did. Sorry no pics.

Nothing new really, I've been saving up a little to finally get a daily (most likely going to be a Tacoma) and have been envisioning on what to do after I get it. I think, different color, moar low (bags eventually) and new wheels again. We will have to see...

SkillFreeJake

I guess it's about time I updated...

There's been a few pretty big changes that will mean good things for the tC.

First, I finally picked up that daily. This here is my 2003 VW Passat Wagon. V6 5 speed and FWD. It's a dad wagon but I love it.

This means that I don't have to worry about driving the tC back a forth every day and can do more expensive and wildly impractical things to it. Speaking of, I've got some big plans for the tC in the near future and needless to say it won't be looking the way it does much longer.

First off I need a new sound system, or really just a re-arranging. I'll be getting 2 new boxes that will fit into the cubby holes on either side of the trunk. They'll be custom fit to work with my current 12 inch subs that I will upgrade in the future.

Second, bags. I'll order the D2BD kit to be installed by a shop here in Houston that specializes in bags and does amazing work. Won't be cheap though...

Third, new wheels. I'll be selling the RPF1's soon and of course I'll be needing a new set. I'll most likely go with AG's, Vossens or Concept One's but I'll have to see for sure when the time comes. They'll be 20's so I can get some major tuckage with the bags.

And last but not least, a new color. I'm still torn between wrap or dip but either way I have fallen in love with the color below. It's 3M's matte indigo. But we'll cross that bridge when we come to it.



I'll be poor by the time this is done.
Let me know what yall think. If you don't like it, read the sig \/

Not bad man, although the wagon is a far cry from a Tacoma . I`m sure your going to HIN right, ill probably go myself
but I don't know if ill enter my car or not since I won`t have coils by that point. Maybe the rest of my mods can make up for it.

SkillFreeJake

When is that? I haven't seen anything on it. The car may not be done by then.

But yeah the Tacoma I wanted was a little too expensive

Thatguyaknow

HIN Dallas is April 11th, and yeah tacos are friggen expensive.

SkillFreeJake

Oh I probably won't then. I don't expect the car to be done in time.
