Just another UCF20

Hello VSC!!
 
Just wanted to share some pictures of my car.
There´s nothing special about it, just wheel and suspension.
Suspension is BC coils + UAS bags.
 
Plalns:
raising exhaust
drop front another inch
wood wheel and shift
dual pipe mufflers

We wanna see pics and/or vid of this :biggthumpup:

LOVE it. And another nice, dark blue ride on the forums!  Navy blue is the new black haha :biggthumpup:

nice car, looks great.

clean!!

I like the color.  THe car looks sick

WOW nice!

love it homie...........hope mine looks like that on bags

dopeeeee question for ya what's your wheel width and how much camber you set at?

thanks everyone!!
hearing from guys that own increadible cars that mine is nice is a big deal :runcoold:

[QUOTE=BLKVIP;337459]dopeeeee question for ya what's your wheel width and how much camber you set at?[/QUOTE]

THNAKS!!

rears are 10.5 +15. Dont know the camber. I had to roll the fenders and then shave them because rims didnt want to fit because of the fat fender lip. Now it fits, I dont know if a credit card can fit between the rim and the fender...its veeery close.

man one word ... D O P E !!!

this car is my background on my work computer right now. love it man!

Just got a call from my friend Silos5, he says the pipes have been lifted so he can now drive lower than before!!! At last!!! :dance: Tuckin' god :signdammit::biggthumpup:

As for HD videos of the UCF20 gettin' low and dirty, these are sure to come in the near future!

So stay tuned 
:werd:

indeed, got the exhausts raised. cost around 100$ :biggthumpup:
pipes after catalizators were rewelded higher and in the rear mufflers were pulled also higher. I was afraid that they will make noise, but they dont.
Thanks [I]Schnitz[/I] for pictures, they really helped.

And of course my ride height is lower now: fronts as low, so I could turn; rears...so you dont see a tyre: fender ends and comes the rim, no tyre :runcoold:
Drove today from shop to work and then home...no problem.
And when I pancake, exhaust doesnt go against the road. Before there were some nasty noises coming.
Airestonia (Eugene, GS300) was right about the good quality video, hope to do it soon. As for now, here is a small video of me parking into the garage:

Thanks everyone one more time.

car looks sick!!
 
how is the ride on BC Coils being that low?  right now im debating on getting those or HKS for my SC.

THANKS!!

I have BC+airbags. I´m still experimenting with the stiffnes.
Cant set it to be as soft as stock suspension, because I´m that low. I´m used to have a stiff car, but with this one I want some comfortable too. Still searching for the ideal setting.

love it!!!!
 
Didnt know estonia had a VIP scene!
take some pictures around town! Always wondered what a vip car would look like out their :):biggthumpup:

THANKS!!!

just to make things a little bit clear: there NO VIP SCENE here in Estonia. Noone understands what I did with my car and noone understands what car it is (because there are no logos). Most people think it is Mercedes that is made to a lowrider :pat:
Everyone here do racing thing or some ugly shit.

Glad I could help.
That ride height is insane!
Definitely the route I 'plan' on taking. UAS with my Megans.

This car is nice. As the op said most cars that u see from that part of the world are ugly as shit or some crazy fast vdub. Good job bein a trend setter out there.

fricken dope! i like that low rear shot of ur car!

just got some fotos from summer from my friend

Love the color of your car!! Clean and simple!!

Wow, perfect example of the "less is more" concept. Super clean. Love everything about your ride. Diamond stich is a nice touch too.

dammn hella sexy UCF 20 bro

Hows the ride when aired out? That seems just a tad lower than my car is static and Im worried if I did bags that it would be too soft to ride as low as I like.

that car is sexy as hell...makes me want air. I like that rear shot (no homo)

thanks guys. havent driven the car for 2 month, cuz there lots of snow here. Cant wait for the spring :dance:

I dont drive with 0 psi. I lift fronts so I could turn and rears so you wont see tyres (rim meets fender). Ride is tuned to be stiff because I like stiff and I need to be stiff because its low (I scratch the road quite a lot). I have BC coils with UAS, in the rear coils are in the lowest posision, but I dont it to be lower at 0 psi (it would look bad).

This thing is pure seX!!!!SIMPLY CLEAN.  Im in the process of looking for a ucf20 for my DD.

small update.
because there is still one month till I can drive my car on the streets (because its forbidden to drive with summer tyres now), I decided to make some more modifications.
From the very beginning I wanted to replace the sub, because the factory one sucks. I got a DLS 10 inch free air + amp. Had to cut some metal, but it was easy, did it with metal scissors; also made a wood platform for the sub.

[IMG]http://i415.photobucket.com/albums/pp234/silosfive/IMG_5765.jpg[/IMG]


Also got mufflet tips. Now I need to cut holes in the bumper. Dont think its hard.

[IMG]http://i415.photobucket.com/albums/pp234/silosfive/IMG_5773.jpg[/IMG]

[IMG]http://i415.photobucket.com/albums/pp234/silosfive/IMG_5758.jpg[/IMG]

next is more technical: trany and engine mounts, throttle body clean, some exhaust raising work.
Cant wait for the spring :saiyancrunks:

Nice so far.  The exhaust hangs low but you said you are working on that next :biggthumpup:

sub mount looks pretty good, matching fabric would have set it over the top.
 
check out the stealth kit from sense brand japan. just stumbled on it the other day. it raises the exahust 40mm. if i had a 20 it'd be on order.

OG, because of the flash you can see the difference between the materials, but in real life its fine.
I would buy stealth kit, but getting expensive part overseas is a PITA. done that !!

today I cut holes for the exhaust tips.
my rule was: measure 7 time, cut once. And it helped, because my left exhaust appeared to be about 1,5 inch closer to the center of the bumper than the right one. If I wouldnt measure everything, I would be in deep trouble.
Anyway, here´s how I did it:

taped the bumper, sides and found the center of the bumper.
[IMG]http://i415.photobucket.com/albums/pp234/silosfive/IMG_5774.jpg[/IMG]

made a drawing of the hole on the paper:
[IMG]http://i415.photobucket.com/albums/pp234/silosfive/IMG_5790.jpg[/IMG]

put it on the bumper, measured that was horisontal:
[IMG]http://i415.photobucket.com/albums/pp234/silosfive/IMG_5785.jpg[/IMG]

cut:
[IMG]http://i415.photobucket.com/albums/pp234/silosfive/IMG_5787.jpg[/IMG]

I have many tools, but I decided to cut the holes by hand. Here my tool:

result:
[IMG]http://i415.photobucket.com/albums/pp234/silosfive/IMG_5791.jpg[/IMG]

I´m happy with the result, didnt mess up anything.

Have to admit I was scared when I saw the first pics that you were going to cut!   Nice result though!

[QUOTE=AME_VIP;369862]Have to admit I was scared when I saw the first pics that you were going to cut!   Nice result though![/QUOTE]

you got scared by the tape I spent a lot :biggthumpup: didnt want to scratch the paint

Turned out great. Well done!

Cool LS bro! It's good to hear that there are peeps south of the border repping true VIP, not just the basic DUB/EXE shiet that's common in EU :biggthumpup:

Silos5, it turned out real bad-ass! It looks to be sitting flush and just right! Thumbs up by all means! :biggthumpup: Can't wait to see it in person! :runcoold:

p.s. Are you concerned about the extra heat, since the muffler ends are now closer to the plastics?

Juzzo, nice to here there is someone in the north doing it the right way :biggthumpup:

as for muffler tips, there is no way they are going to be that hot it would effect the bumper.

today connected the amp, tested the sub. Rattle came from the 3rd brake light, gonna fix that with some rubber seal.

airestonia - no worries regarding the heat. Mine has been cut for past year with no issues

got the wood shift knob and steering wheel.
USPS sent the wheel to a wrong country, and I waited 2 months instead of 5 days to get it. Now the interior is waaay better.
Engine cover got painted also.
Yesturday made a small photoshoot, so look out for some fresh pictures :dance:

Anxiously waiting.......

Super fresh!

runs smoothe as butter on a hot knife now with the new tranny mounts (no homo) eh? nice recent round of mods!

dont really feel the different while driving the car, but it doesnt jerk that much when I shift from R-N-D any more.


a local photographer found fotos of the car on VSC and offered a small photoshoot. Here are some shots:

Nice! If I can whip up a Finnish VIP photoshoot in autumn in Helsinki/nearby would you be interested?

I've been organising the Finnish Aristo/GS meet for the last two years and now I've changed the game up. I'm organizing a Finnish JayZee-Meet in July/August, and I've been pondering that I should try to organize something more inline with "VIP" up aswell... Thought about a Work Wheels photoshoot/mini-meet, but now the idea of a northern "VIP-Style" shoot and mini-meet is starting to grow on me quite a lot =)

There should be something like atleast 6 Vip-styled cars in Finland, but how does the scene hold up down there(Baltic region)? With about 8-12 cars it would be do-able to pay for a professional photographer and  try to get some magazine coverage both sides of the bay... Atleast without making a dent in anyones economic state.

Moi, Juzzo!!=)
If you orgnize a meet, let me know and I´ll figure something out. 

bad news is that there´s no more VIP or VIP inspired cars here, at least in Estonia. I dont think there are in Latvia and Lithuania. Most guys here go sport style and you cant even compare their level to finnish. I´ve been to American Car Show, and daaamn: quite many nice car with good stance. We are like in cave time here :pat:

pics look great. clean, simple, and classy.

This car is on point! Do you know what the blue is called exactly?

[QUOTE=S30ZG;387743]This car is on point! Do you know what the blue is called exactly?[/QUOTE]

thanks!!

the colour is [I]Dark Blue Pearl Clearcoat[/I] (code: 8L4)

funny how they picked that color name. Kinda like a "no sh!t really?" kinda name haha. but then again why call it something more than exactly what it is?

I agree, your shows that uber classic style! I love it! 

photos rock too!

Everything on your car is pure sex. Love the color, stance and diamond stitching inside is nicely done as well. Keep up the good work bro!

you have a dope ride and an even more awesome mom!! i wish mines could do that!!
