Fun projects?

 

I'll probly be rolling on my black steelies once again. I might wash my xA too, depending if the rain goes away.

 

taking my 7.2" monitor out of my dash and putting 7" tft in. if i had my blitz intake i'd put it on, waiting on it.

 

Planned? Letsee..

 

driving it.

 

Bought an Injen CAI today. Installed it in shortram mode. I'll install it in CAI mode tomorrow. I like it a lot :D

 

Hmm... getting LED's installed in the front footwells, Red to match the interior of the RS1 :D

My friend's family owns a company that they started here in Upstate NY called "Street Force Ultimate LED's" and its been a hit. We have gone to a lot of shows, the best one being Hot Import Nights: Boston this past summer. I didn't have my RS1 obviously yet, but next show I will be taking it as their show car. They are the potential lighting sponsor for the next "Fast and the Furious" series movie as well, so they are doing very well. These LED's come in a bunch of cool colors, and they are 15% brighter and longer lasting than neon tubes. They are really small too. The website is http://www.streetforceleds.com

Check out the gallery they have on the site, and theres a Lava xB in it. If anyone is interested please let me know, we can have these LED's sent to you whenever you want. The price is insanely inexpensive, at $30 per LED. I talked to my friend, and we will sell them to ScionLife members for $25 per LED. That's $50 for a front set of LEDs... let me know!! I'll post pics of mine as soon as I get them up. Another cool thing about this is that you can wire the storage boxes in Scions to turn on with the same switch as the LEDs, so you can light up the LEDs and the storage box at once.
Let me know

Thanks

 

Autocross :D

 

lowering it! just got my tein s-techs in...

 

Uhh.. put a new grill on from Japan (JDM Ist) which took 1 minute.. and driving it 300+ miles to and from work!

 

Only picked up my RS hottie from the dealer late Thursday night so, it's got a few quick mods in it... The two most important so far. The first is a visor CD holder, and the 2nd was a little vent mounted neoprene pouch to hold my phone, loose change, id card, and other random s**t. They were less than $10.

Tomorrow, Brian from OC Scions is going to install 8 cold cathode tubes and change my speedo color to red. For awhile that will be all. I am however pretty desperate for a simple alarm system and keyless entry. Hopefully, someone will cut me a deal.

What I don't get is how Randode can charge like $75 bucks for two cold cathode light tubes. Unless I'm missing something major, Fry's and most computer supply shops sell them for $10-$15 for a pair, with the mounting stuff, power supply, and rocker switch. Can someone explain his ridiculously high prices to me???

 

Question for Ashe_WCM: How are you clearing the fron turn signals?
What parts do you need and where to get them?
Been looking to do that for a long time.....

 

I'll tell you what. I'll do a Walkthrough (With a couple pics) later today after work
As for parts all you need are:

1) Phillips Screwdriver
2) 10mm Socket & Driver
3) Hammer (Optional)
4) Long Flathead Screwdriver (Optional)
5) Amber 7440 Bulbs (preferably Chromed. I used Stealth bulbs I got from Here
6) Oven
7) Patience & Some mechanical Skill

 

randodes kit uses 4 twelve inch bulbs and comes with the full wire harness made specifically for our vehicles... his kit is nice because its all there ready to go with no headaches and its been around for a while so its tried and true... for most people parting together and installing a kit with parts from frys or whatever is a bit cheaper but usually comes with a huge headache... i think his kits are worth the cash

 

Clearing your xA's Headlights DIY is up.
