Our weather's hardly better than yours here in and near NYC (though not quite as turbulent as my emotions, but that's off topic).Originally posted by neo-truth@Jan 1 2006, 06:17 AM
The weather has been kinda crazy here lately. One day it's snowing, the next day it's in the 60's. Damn global warming! It was actually really cold and windy when I took that picture.
And springs is probably the first mod I'll do... I just don't know which ones to get. I'm leaning towards the TRD, but I'm afraid I'll get them and the drop won't be enough to suit me. Then again, I'm afraid if I get S-Techs or Goldlines or something else that the drop will be *too* much. Coilovers is a bit too intensive for me, so that's not an option either. I guess I could always swap springs later if I don't like them... I just hate to pay so much to get them installed.![]()
Thanks for the comments all... and Happy New Year!
Hmm... maybe there's some sort of bushings or risers you could stick in there to bump the rear up some. I watch a lot of racing, and they're always adding or removing "spring rubbers" to stiffen up or free up the suspension. I'm not exactly sure what they are or how they work, but I'd imagine they might make the springs a little taller in addition to stiffer? I suck @ car knowledge... sorry.I'm actually wishing they weren't quite this low at this point (moreso the rear than the front, as I prefer the rear to be a tiny bit higher than the front for that more aggressive stance).[/b]
I took the antenna out of the box... removed it from it's packaging... and immediately yanked that sticker off.Originally posted by patrickdubya49@Feb 9 2006, 05:36 PM
Make sure you take that goofy ass sticker off the bottom of the antenna.
Anyone can just click the link in my sig and there are plenty of pics of my car w/the Alta Mini antenna sans stupid ####ty sticker.Originally posted by neo-truth@Feb 9 2006, 01:09 PM
eBay. It was 27 bucks and like 8 to ship. They actually had 2 different auctions up.. one was 27 for a Scion tC version and the other was 29 for the Mini... I emailed and asked them.. they said it was the same exact antenna and to just order the cheaper one lol.
The Alta one is 4"... they claim no reception loss, but I haven't tried it out yet, just screwed it on the car (perfect fit.. no gap to speak of). It's all aluminum I think.
I'll try to take some pics later... I dunno when I'll be seeing my mom again, and she has the camera.
EDIT: I don't think I'd smoke the tails... I might like a red overlay on the 3rd brake though, if that's what you were talking about. It would have to match perfectly though... I'm too picky about those things.![]()
