...and it f'ing poured.

A couple guys (FlawedLegacy from TN and STLien from ScionLife) met up at my place for an install day and photoshoot. We got some stuff done on both cars and just as we started tearing apart the trunk to install STLien's rear coilovers ... the skies opened up. We hung out on the porch for a few min til it stopped. Decided we better get the fronts raised to match the back in case it rains more and boom, all hell broke loose with six more turns to get the P side to match the D side. It rained hard enough in 5-10min to put the jack under 2" of water.

It finally stopped. The temp went back up to like 96*F and it got f'ing humid as hell so we finished the front and the guys split with the intention of installing the rears another weekend.

...later that evening as I was coming home from a run the light was perfect. So, I snapped a few more pics before my lens completely fogged over.

Thanks! I plan on shooting a bunch more this weekend or next ...I got a freelance gig coming up and my photog'ing skills are a bit rusty.

I love it Eric....that car always makes me want a scion

***BLUEMEANIE*** · 06-17-2010, 09:24 AM

Thanks!
Still not 100% happy with it tho ... I wanna add another 5-10 mm to the offset and eventually I'm gonna step the tires up to 215 or 205/40's. The stretch is perfect now but I want a lil more thick and a smidge more poke.

its always nice to have some ppl that can help install stuff and some beer afterward

^ Truth. My impact wrench, spring compressor, tq wrench, jack and jack stands have made me more friends in the scene than I can count.

Nice

I can vouch for lense fogging up.... Had my camera in my car and when I brought it outside to snap some pics of the Supra, I had to wait like 15-20 min for it to be clear again... arg
