this is my buddy's m3, i'm painting it for him at somepoint this fall apparently... lol we'll see, but i should hopefully be rocking these wheels with 25mm adapters/spacers for a different look for my hatch. i'll have my car dumped so hopefully i'll be tucking some wheel out back

[rob_180sx]

very nice car dude!

looking forward to some more pics!

[PJ Prendergast]

thanks guys! i'm actually getting the car ready now for today's event, it's raining out right now but it's supposed to clear up for most of the afternoon. i'm also bringing my go pro so i should have a few decent clips hopefully. and @d-turbo-lad i really want type x all around but i think i'm gonna end up with one of the version select kits next winter. for this year my goals are wheels, a bolt in cage and some brides and just get some drifting done before i (hopefully) am in ireland for spring 2013

i'm waiting for a vid to finish processing on vimeo and i'll make a good post. i have a few more videos that i wanna get up and i should hopefully have a few additional pics from one of the photographers that was there. ended up raining pretty much all afternoon but it was still fun!
