anyone know the owner of a yellow supra with 18" mercury silver rims, not sure which brand? Poor car rear ended a flat bed truck on 436 and howell branch this morning going into the publix shopping center. The front end looked pretty tore up...didnt have a chance to take a pic though.

On a side note, do any of yall know if Carlitos uses a laser alignment or if they do it by hand? I got my new tires and alignment done by them in Feb and my toe is jacked to sh*t. I got the camber arms and toe bolts installed by them as well. Only been a little over 7k miles and Im down to essentiall 0% or 1/32 or 2/32 tire tread in the rear. Im not trying to talk sh*t here I just figure it might give me some insight on why my tires are going they way they are.

 

^ Wow that sucks. I've only seen that car driving once... not sure who it is. maybe they post on OF?

 

I think I may have seen that car once myself too. Lots of yellers around town.

Not sure why you're going through tires like that if you have the camber fix???

 

yea b/c to me the guy was full of bs. I told him i came here last time and no problem, he was like " oooo that was the master tech who did it and hes not here""" I went to jiffy lube 10mins they were done. Just annoying

 

Thanks for all the suggestions guys! I think we're just going to go ahead and replace the two rear tires, then take the tire somewhere to get it fixed once it's off the wheel. That way we'll have two spares laying around for next time.

 

Don't get runflats again

 

dude, do you get your oil change done at universal? When i was there i couldve sworn i did a black Z wth black SSR's.

 

i took my car to universal in kissimmee a long time ago one time. Then i went to bill ray in casselberry/sanford...

 

I don't want to, but so far that's all I've found to replace them with.

 

Get the Nitto INVO's or the New Nitto N05. I'll say Invo's more size section and great all around tire you have 20's right?

 

does anyone know any good general paint and body shops in town. I have a friend that backed into his chics car and it needs some minor work.

 

I have a guy not to far from where the meet was at this past Saturday/ right on the way to the CFRC. He does great repair work/body/paint. Let me know if you like his Info, he also deal with insurance company's.

 

pm me his info, he is good right, i dont want to recommend him if his work is okay, not that I dont trust you just making sure.

 

Try googleing or the yellow pages for Red-Line Motorsports paint and Body shop.
The are the one's who painted the Candy Apple red G35 that roll around
town

 

Ill stand by the shop I goto, rIght across from the Sanford Town Center; Very few people can do TRUE candy paint jobs the right way and let me tell you, people have came in from other states to just have this guy paint their cars(nba/football/all kinds of stars), they do an awesome job!! Not just with paint either, walk into this shop and you will be blown away at the quality of work they do.

 

I know this is going to sound crazy to some of you, but I am seriously thinking of selling my bodykit before I leave.

I know that I want the WALD kit and i am sure its going to be real hard to sell the kit in hawaii with shipping. I am planning on having the car put in the shop right before I leave, so why not go ahead and get the new kit now instead of touching up the one I have on.

I guess it will just depend on the interest.
I am looking to get $1500 for the whole thing. It is 1 of 5 in the US. So its original.

If anyone is interested let me know.

 

the amuse front looks good Nick..At first glance it was hard to tell it wasnt painted, ha. Its one of my favorite front bumpers actually. Looking forward to it being painted.

 

does anyone know a good freight company that ships out of the country to canada. I know it would be cheaper to send my kit freight I have an interested buyer.

 

DHL only does international now, check with them. I used to ship wheels/tires with them and it was waay cheaper.

 

ahh DHL thanks.
