boredom and new tread = couple pics
Sunday, December 13, 2009 7:59 AM
Well, some of you may know I parted out couple months back so I hope you weren't coming in here expecting something great.
Anyway, changed the oil and stopped at this spot on my way back from the shop. Started sprinkling on my way back so it kind of killed that but o well. Yes i've whored this spot out but it always seems to work out for pics. Got some winter treads on the stock ls chromies for winter so those are on, worked out nicely last week when snow came.. definitely lost some "spirited" cornering abilities in dry though





Heres how my car can look awesome, out of focus


and the meats



here is a picture testing out this spot.. doesn't quite work. but after the tunnel is some awesome corners and curves..this is where i compared the tires to my old ones

I'm fond of the stock look as well, just wish it was in better shape.

There some beefy mofos, seen a guy in a f150 kind of just staring at one of my wheels at a light, I can only imagine he was thinking "why the eff does he have meatier tires than I do?"

Thanks david, so far they have not let me down for what there intended for.

so far so good, wet and dry traction is good, soft so the corners suffer a bit, but there winter tires not intended for fast corners right? lol. Last week with a bit of snow the advantage I got over all the other drivers was nice.. would be able to find a open hole and just leave the people doing 20mph in a 45mph street behind.. only to catch up to the next group lol

Thanks, I like to think my engine bay is clean as well. Pic from earlier this summer, wire loom going next to the power steering has been rerouted underneath there, with it as my DD its pretty simple stuff.

Chris is right, but not how most will think of it..I didn't use the APC Clear tails I took some 95-02 taillights and cut them up to make them have 2 bulbs like the toyos. Then I made my own reflector and lens. Used some House of Kolor Kandy and tinted the brake section. Then left the turn section clear. Then masked off the tails to look like toyos. Even made my own wiring harness so, If i want I can actually swap to 99/2k toyos with no rewiring, or go back to stock with no rewiring.. its all plug and play with a adapter harness I made to accept the factory 3 pin taillight plug.
I'll post pics below so you can see I bought all the factory connectors both sides, secondary locks, and pins to make my harness and harness adapter.. My taillight harness is wired up to the same plug as the toyo tails, thus making the swap to 99 or 2k toyos a direct swap. Also made a "toyo harness adapter" that plugs into the factory 3 pin plug that normally plugs into the stock light bulb socket connector. Then I have a little connector that plugs into where my spoiler used to plug in, that runs down to the wire wire you see not connected yet in the picture.

Here you can see the harness going to the adapter harness, and my third brake like plug for my brake jumper wire

Plugged into the car


To me a clean install, like this, is what makes the deal.. and the ability to swap tails with only having to unplug some connectors is a lot nicer to me even if I never use the ability.
