Funny you say that cause I'm going to start making my roof wing soon. And its going to be rainy season anytime soon so I was planning on getting some window visors. Both of those are definitely in my to do list.

why did you pick such an impossible tire size to find for the rear crown vics?!

sharingan 19 08-31-11 07:53 AM

Cuz its the prefect size for these wheels....unfortunately

Sharingan is right. Biggest tires I would run on the crown vics would probably be 215/45/16. Haven't seen a 50 series tire on them in person so I cant say. Plus it helped slam the car alot lower with no rubbing issues at all so I was lovin' it.

Nothing has been really going on with the fc lately. Mainly cause I'm saving up for t2 swap, should be able to pull the trigger on one in 2-3 weeks. If any of you know someone selling a motor let me know.

Attachment 717023

Was finally able to have a little fun since I havent drifted for months. Definitely need to work on my driving. I'll try initiating sooner next time, and dont mind the donuts at the end, my buddy swore I couldn't do donuts around him...

2nd time I tried exiting doing a manji but I realized I didnt have power so it just looked like I was aiming at the curb lmao.

BTW, anyone local that is interested...I'm now selling my shine half bumper mounted to my s4 bumper. Need money to fund the turbo, so HMU!

sharingan 19 09-12-11 10:14 PM

Lookin good! (for the record I still support the s4 look)
This car will rule w/a t2 swap.
Nice vid. Reminds me of when a friend if mine made a similar wager on the roof of a parking garage....sadly, no video though.

slowgxl 09-12-11 11:57 PM

nice drifting dude....car looks killer as always.

slowgxl 09-14-11 08:50 PM

Hey man can you post a pic of the back of your shine bumper? I wanna see how you have it held together.

_Mac_ 09-14-11 09:59 PM

Thanks for the kind words guys.

slowgxl: I can probably get the pics up tomorrow, kinda dark out right now and I need to pull it out of the garage haha.

slowgxl 09-14-11 10:47 PM

Its all good bro...thanks for doing it.

RadioX7 09-15-11 08:09 PM

iani1.1 09-15-11 11:13 PM

Radio: I haven't gotten a chance to hit them up yet, I'm waiting till I have close to enough before I start calling around. I'll hit you up when that time comes though lol.

RadioX7 09-19-11 11:10 PM

Ok dope good job with the car by the way

slowgxl 09-20-11 12:32 AM

Its all good dude...wow that's pretty cool how you mounted it on. thanks for the photos mac.

Hypertek 09-20-11 01:53 AM

that vid reminds me of when we used to hit up the industrial areas for street drifting til i became too pussy to do it after engine mods to my s13 (when teh car becomes a pretty hot thing on the street for attention) lol. Just be careful man

_Mac_ 09-20-11 04:29 PM

Radio: Thanks man!

Slowgxl: Haha yah, it took me a while to figure it out without using screws that mount to the outside of the bumper. I wanted it to look clean as possible.

Hyper: I know what yah mean, but I get that drifting bug once and a while especially when theres no events and no funds to even go to events. Next time you see me drifting it'll probably be on the track. For the record, I always liked your 240 back when I still had mine, sometimes I think of going back to an s-chassis but nahhhh.

For the price I can't complain, they look nice and aggressive on our cars.

Thank you sir.



Anyways, been bored waiting around looking for a motor. And not wanting to change up my look a little and not spend money I got my hands on a grinder lol.
Made some splitter winglet things, whatever you want to call them.
Attachment 717027

Attachment 717028

iani1.1 09-26-11 11:47 PM

brian_skotch 09-27-11 12:29 AM
