Yoshi. Van is looking good. How you like those rotors compared to stock?

The rotors are good.......don't drive "hard" so I can't really tell the difference.  I got them because they are going to help keep my brakes "cool" because with my "full faced" wheel I was concerned about brake fade with the rotors having significantly less air.  So more "function" than "show", although I must say that the quality is top notch and if you had a wheel which could "show" the rotors you can't go wrong.

damn, the egg is lookin good man!, use to see your white one alot  a KCC. glad to see you started another one...never seen one done up right yet on the island, good luck on your build!

I know that there will be one which will "come out of no where" here in the 808.  All of his last rides went from bone stock to PIMP status over night.  I ain't talking about mine either because my Egg will always be "under construction".............I will let the owner go ahead and post what he has up his sleve.

Where do you park at KCC?

Sukoshiyoshi

Looks good yoshi!!!
 
did you fix the fender rub problem?

As far as I know......yes.  I just flipped my tires today at Atomics so I will check to see if there is any more shredding.  The main reason why I flipped the tires was because I will be going to RECON tomorrow and the lest that they have to "fail" me for the better.  

Techinically the only "problem child" was the right rear but decided to cut all four corners for clearance with the Spacers up front......and also for additional clearance for Air...........in the very far distant future.  Neal did a great job cutting the fenders and Kyle did a great job cutting the sliding door to make the long hinge lay flat.  Two of my "Master Fabricators".  Because let's face it.....I got no skills!  I think that the fitment (Front 5 MM) came out pretty good and am rather pleased with how flush they are.  

I hope that I will pass RECON...............No RECON and Waikiki are NOT a match made in Heaven.

Looks good Yosh...you'll always be the OG kamaaina egg to me...

Anytime Yoshi. The vans looking great and came a long way from when you first picked it up. I am honored to work on one of the nicest (if not the nicest) Prev in the 808 state.

Damnit why did you post a pic of my fat ass? LOL

nice yoshi!!! I like what you have done :)

Looks like it's coming along nicely..  Glad you didn't give up like I did..

Mike,

I actually went to your old work place (Atomics) to get my tires "flipped", patch my tire, and balanced today.  I hope that I will never see another slice on my right rear fender.....as well as my fronts....the 5 mm spacer pushes the tire out to where it could be shredded.  Only time will tell.

Thanks for all the compliments..........I feel I am very lucky to have great friends with skills who have made my ride what it is.

Sukoshiyoshi

congrats Yoshi - looks awesome!

goodl uck with your recon.. I know what you mean by Waikiki and no recon dont mix.. 
 
I noticed recon arent being jerks as before.. where it made people not want to go.. 
 
So far drop and rims and you have the flares and alignment papers it should be all good..

nice work! lovin the rapiers. put some air and a kit and call it a day

ahh damn ... BAg that Mofo !!

Air and kit...........I really want to.......got to follow up on my custom air set-up.....as for the kit.......probally looking to get something off up-garage or yahoo auctions.....but before I do anything else I got to replenish the funds.  LOL

Sukoshiyoshi
