I'm excited! I hope it's what we talked about!!!
bumper off only brings one thing to mind, but it's a body shop so i'm wrong.
There she is!!! I can't wait to pick her up:dance:
Bumper is off cause it was damaged during shipping lol.
r u gonna sell me the fenders j? can't wait to see how it all turns out!
Teasers suck, even when theyre coming from you 33. Yes ill be the first one to say it.
If it's at AGi's shop where he's having his frankenstein car built then we may never see this car :innoutrofl2::P Then again, gotta love them military checks! :biggthumpup:
lol good one. Actually thats part of the reason you will never see my car, cause everyone goes there. I'm not stressing, I live through them
cant wait its GOTTA be sick
:runcoold:
Wow - everybody wants those fenders - lol you have to wait till the end of the summer I'll take H/O
stop the tease!!!!
wait, wut? your ditching the range rover fenders? did you pick up agis? and im only assuming its engine work.
Haha...Dreamwerks at it again. Agi may never get his car done if they keep doing other crew members cars first...Can't wait to see it J!
no engine work - some more body work - getting it lower and tuning the suspension 5.5 a few select people already know the deal
Game Over!

I was always curious about the clearance of the front on the Y33. Glad to know I have cutting ahead! Looks good! I love build pics!
seen this on the blog this morning. gonna be bonkers for sure...
inner clearance is good for Y33's, but what sucks the most when driving low is the primary cats
The exhaust has been completely removed. It is getting lifted

IDK probably a sawzall. They didnt get to the fender work yet. The car does lay frame now. Updates on the blog and here, tonight
wondering about the wiring harness. Are you resoldering all those wires because you will lose some current by just crimping them pack together. Person I sold mine to blew tire and shredded his wiring harness. They tried to repair it and found that stuff didnt work right or at all afterwards. they decided to replace whole harness to fix it

Like so: [url]http://www.vipstylecars.com/forums/showpost.php?p=369568&postcount=16[/url]

The wires have been soldered [img]http://libertyvip.files.wordpress.com/2011/02/img955249a.jpg[/img] The upper frame mount has been modified as well to allow his to lay frame which the car now does.
beastttt mode!
still is, and probably always will be, my fav vip car stateside, and shutting down most of the cars over seas..
can you still keep the K-brake plate??
the front plate - im changing the rear to a veterans plate - personalized of coursed

[IMG]http://i52.photobucket.com/albums/g29/OKIBAPESTA/photo-8.jpg[/IMG] rear quarters complete and id have to say im happy - i insisted that they keep the body line - there was so much bondo on the car - it was crazy but im content with the end result - may not seem like much but im laying frame - the fronts will be done as well and yeah - im working on a solution for the primary cats but the mufflers will be removed - it will look like a beast and sound like a beast
It's like putting win on top of perfection
looks sick but i gotta ask... why not radius it the .5" more so it kisses laid out? are they gonna go in the doors?
Dollars and the arch would have to be re created. I can fine tune it with my arms to kiss it.
you gonna stick with the air? seems like a great canidate for some retarded stiff suspension and the "king of low" title.
Wow... awesome update!! Looks perfect!

It needs air especially on the east coast. It needs to be able to get on and off a flat bed
i've said it before and i'll say it again. cups + coils. :thumbsup:
Dollars and cents. Pointless at this point. U giving away cup suspensions?
lol... i wish.
Especially. When u can't buy just the cup. It's retarded that I have everything else but I have to buy a complete suspension in order to get the cups. If I could buy the cups separately. I'd be all over it.
theres nothing to say that hasnt already been said! :biggthumpup:

If I could buy the cups separately. I'd be all over it.[/QUOTE] i agree that it is a shame. i explained to ravi that a lot of the vip market already has fuctioning systems installed, and just need the cups to do a conversion, but it is not negotiable. umbrella takes a lot of pride in their air/power module. the other reason is to maintain quality by ensuring that the components used are up to par. realistically though, you're only paying for a tank/compressor, 2/4 valves, 1/2 switches, and a plug and play harness. it's less complex than a bag setup. most current air bag users would probably break even selling the managment side of their setup, even with the diminishing return of used parts.

All the same when it comes to the cost of setup and install. Now does umbrella need a demo car for the next few years. My car is pretty much available.
that's be a discussion for you and ravi. i do know a few things about it though: [LIST=1] [*]umbrella builds demo cars for other companies [*]umbrella does not target the vip market (yet) [*]umbrella has access to some cars that the rest of us don't [/LIST]i'm actually hoping to brand this setup under my company eventually. just have to create the market.



Sorry for holding out, just had a lot going on this weekend and had to share the love on the liberty vip blog. Check this out [img]http://libertyvip.files.wordpress.com/2011/02/img956807-5.jpg[/img] [img]http://libertyvip.files.wordpress.com/2011/02/img955249-2.jpg[/img] ^This was actually before the picture he posted but it gives you an idea of how it will look when painted. [img]http://libertyvip.files.wordpress.com/2011/02/img956807-6.jpg[/img] I am considering buying the car
Ha ha. Agi always get the new pics before me. Ain't that some shit.
lol Happens with all the cars they do. They consider me an employee
Hot dayum :biggthumpup: Props fellas
I think some company (A.G.I.) should make a cup kit upgrade for us who already own bags and all the needed parts. I feel like it could be a great money making product
Looks great so far.
Im gonna be up there to join you J. car is so sick.. cant wait to see it in person.
Lookin good mayne! One question though, if the car lays frame when down, then that means you can't really drive it laying frame, right? So when you have to raise it up while driving which will look really 4X4 status due to the radius, correct? I'm sure that you don't care about riding low though :shrug:

[QUOTE=PANCAKES!;371827]I'm sure that you don't care about riding low though :shrug:[/QUOTE] :-O

Since the inner fenders (Front and Rear) have been modified/tubed... [IMG]http://libertyvip.files.wordpress.com/2011/02/img955249-1.jpg?w=450&h=600[/IMG] That means that he can basically roll with the bags deflated... That means Yes, he can ride low...
I'm the only Liberty member who rolls 4x4 status lol
the whole purpose of this modification was to ride lower, laying frame just happened.
It really depends on the travel pcakes. Ie on my old setup I had to be at 80 psi not to bounce. It was somewhat comfortable. The lower u go the less travel you will have. I went full hard on the dampening. And the bag will have less travel so I might be at 80 psi but since the bag does not haveas much travel as it used to. At 80 psi it will be riding lower and stiffer. This is how I imagine it and the radius will allow me to turn
Lets not start any unnecessary Bull shit I was jus asking what the possible ride height could be Since when it's aired out it's on frame jus wondering what it will look like when raised to a drivable height. I'll jus wait to see it when it's all done
All necessary pcakes. I'd imagine that u don't have the adjustabiliy by running air runner so it may be hard to gather the concept. When I build my car in japan I will do s13/s14 on a cup suspension. I'm just working with what I got right now.
just when i thought this car could not get any sicker....it does:drool: cant wait to see this phase completed:biggthumpup:
Oh geez :pat:

[QUOTE=OG;371919]good eye, but still set up really strange. i think i'm getting an idea of what's going on though.[/QUOTE] after reviewing pics..I think the suspension was pulled and they were messing with the bag height and other things... you can see in that pic you pointed out that the top mount isn't even bolted in... and the car is on jack stands on all 4 corners. I'm pretty sure those are just plates bolted to the bags so the plates sit better on the lock perches. Just the bag sitting on the lock perch alone makes it sit loose.
i dunno... maybe you're right. lots of stuff that has been said doesn't make sense or is just straight up false. perhaps they got something going on out of the norm.
no more secret offsets? we moving onto secret suspension setups now? :innoutrofl2:
if it was a secret, pics wouldn't be posted.

When some people radius, they don't do the work needed inside to actually ride low. Not only will it be lower when parked, this car will be able to be driven that way
Sizick! what was used to trim the fender for the radius? I am contemplating on buying one of those air saw things but I have a plasma cutter too, curious on what you all use before i go at it. Mine has been marked for ever for it lol

Yeah current. I took it out the shop a little early. Once I get the primary cats removed and I radius the front fender and trim the front bumper it will roll a little but lower. And im at like 100 psi front and 70 in the rear so it's still smooth considering. No rubbing except that cats on occasion
haha. your psi numbers sound crazy. cuz for air runner we'd be rolling around 20/40 to look like that. nicely done though J. wish i could see this car in person.
J I got the same problem I'm trying to tackle it without makin my exhaust to loud

its still just a car - im sticking by it - of course im passionate about it - life is about living and until you have bullets whisking through the air near you - u canunderstand where im coming from until then i dont think the average person can relate
yup. all material things can be taken away. don't catch any bullets j.
A guy once told me, "Don't let yourself get attached to anything you are not willing to walk out on in 30 seconds flat if you feel the heat around the corner."
We can all debate where we come from all day. But at the end accept someone for they are different. Just cause one has not experianced a event that equals to flavors encounters doesn't mean that other person has had or delt with something worse in a different way. We precieve everything different. But if you want to go far as saying that your reasoning is better cause of such and such then maybe you should look in the mirror. Cause you may not think your car to you is everything, it's everything to someone else. The inspiration setting someithing higher standard. And if you don't realize that you are a blind man. So if i was given a second chance at life when I was 4. Held up with a knife to my neck at 7. Fight or be bullied in junior high and end it with bringing a gun. To a much better life I should see things different? No! Sorry friends are friends I have hardly any fam besides my mom and step dad. So if I lost some thing I was passionate about or it was taken from me. You bet your ass I wouldn't see it differently. I went through a lot to get here and not gonna let a punk bitch take it. Accidents happen all say with cars but if you look at it they are not accidents it's being its premeditative carelessness end rant

Cars are cars, just simple machines built to serve a purpose. While I have owned almost 60 cars in my life I've never been attached to any of them. The important things in life are not replaceable. Although I've never had bullets flying at me, I do agree with you.

That last pic is old, the car is lower all around. Looks sick in person, will shut down any lot
Yeah, i just thought it was a dope pic to get it back on topic. The car, watching the sun from a land that it will end up going to and get redone. if you want to get all philosophical lol

He dont know how big it is out here. Only twice a year we get together like that (no homo)
if we only get together like that - twice a year, thats a problem - im putting in work - DK came and got it - it was on a flat when they picked it up so even if i wanted to roll it to the BBQ - it would not be able to happen without DK fixing the wheel - its suppose to rain on sunday anyway
I mean 30+ deep car wise. Cars are in different states, cant expect to have them come out every weekend but they do come out a few times. This is just the time that its most of the guys in the same place. Should come on a spare lol. Put a tire voodoo sticker on ur fender and that would excuse you. People would understand without having to explain it. Either way, cant wait to see the new upgrades
What emblem do you have on the Q45? It looks like the flush type emblem off the JDM F50.
U should trailer ur q in and put tire voodoo on all 4 wheels. Nah it's the garson dad D hood ornament.
Its to let people know he is the DAD around these parts lol
You working in those new fenders? Can't wait to see new headlight option.
Mad props J. This car is even more insane in person. Definitely an inspiration.
Crazy car man, i can dig it.
Thanks! was a good time yesterday. Happy everyone made it there and got home in one piece.
