    Honestly no idea [emoji1787] I think all my friends I invited are bailing because they have other stuff going on. So I think it's just whoever on CR going. Sent from my Pixel 5 using Tapatalk

    That's right, it's happening. Columbus Shitboxes and Sliders meet and photoshoot, July 18th, 4pm @ White Castle 6791 E Broad St, Columbus, OH 43213 We'll be doing photoshoots for the 2022 Calendar at the meet location as well as continuing to different locations for legitimate photos. Like to keep this small, but we do need at least 12 cars.
  6. Would everyone be alright with July 18th meeting around 2pm at whatever white castle we choose to meet at? Sent from my Pixel 5 using Tapatalk
  7. I think in my mind I was just kinda turning this into a rust belt shoot. But doing nice locations would definitely be funnier.. high end dealers with the stereotypical neon comicsans $599 down? [emoji23] And I'm all for the hidden slider in every shot. Sent from my Pixel 5 using Tapatalk
  8. Sooooo.... Cooper stadium? Sent from my Pixel 5 using Tapatalk
  9. Alright so it's happening in July, which white castle are we meeting at lol. To go with the shit box aesthetic, I'd really like to get some shots of cars in run down industrial areas. I haven't been there in years but are those old factories or whatever down around rich/315 still shitty looking? The buildings over off Sauder by the boat house would also be suitable for a few as well. Sent from my Pixel 5 using Tapatalk
  10. I honestly love this idea [emoji23][emoji122] Sent from my Pixel 5 using Tapatalk
  11. I can absolutely make July if everyone else can do it.. Gonna need at least 12 cars for the calendar [emoji1787] Sent from my Pixel 5 using Tapatalk
  12. Does it look like it belongs at a 614 car scene meet? [emoji23] I was thinking just regular ass traffic, rusted out, faded paint, dents, steelies or brake dusted encrusted wheels. Sent from my Pixel 5 using Tapatalk
  13. Dead ass going to do it. I'm on vacation July 12-18. I should be free all of those days to shoot in the evening, or if it would be better for everyone else I can try to organize a small, private shit box 2k21 meet on a Saturday or Sunday evening. Whatever works for everyone else. Sent from my Pixel 5 using Tapatalk
  14. This is going to be a glorious thing Sent from my Pixel 5 using Tapatalk

  16. My life is a meme and shit posting is my specialty, I will 100% make this happen Sent from my Pixel 5 using Tapatalk
  17. All my friends have hondas. Or just shit boxes. I mean... I have two V8 shit boxes lol. So like if any of you guys with nice cars tryna get some free photography... always trying to expand my portfolio and practice. Sent from my Pixel 5 using Tapatalk
  18. Thanks man, I tried and I'm actually happy with how these turned out... And The styling is definitely an acquired taste . Sent from my Pixel 5 using Tapatalk
  19. I love downtown for photography, there's so many unique places. And the skyline from Cosi is beautiful. I didn't get to drive it this time, just rode shotgun giving directions. Felt pretty quick, and sounded nice for a Honda. Though his isn't stock I'm not real sure what all he's done to it so far other than exhaust, bov, and some weird little auxiliary gauge screen.

  20. A few weekends ago a friend from Dayton had me take some pictures of his civic downtown. Not my thing, but it's a neat little car. And bonus shots I got of my car testing settings, before we abandoned it in the parking lot for the evening. Sent from my Pixel 5 using Tapatalk
  21. It was a good run, but I guess covid gave the "614 car scene" and "columbus underground" a chance of being unemployed and in able to stay up drinking all night Friday to be up early enough Saturday to cause shenanigans. Sent from my Pixel 5 using Tapatalk
  22. First legit mod done in the wind and snow this morning, got a VCM otr intake installed... The shitty ABS clips they included broke trying to install it so the infill panels are in my trunk until I get nylon ones. Flashed a new tune that is quite a bit more aggressive than what I was running and so far, it seems to have really picked up in the mid-high rpm. Also vanity plates because... Well it's funny.

  23. I got a MP maker select plus..... that is in pieces because the Extruder stepper driver crapped out on the board and I've been just putting off compiling for the new firmware for the Arduino/ramps setup I'm retrofitting to it. If anyone less lazy and understands arduino better than me wants to tackle the firmware for me I'm trying to make ADVI3++ work on it to keep the touchscreen working... I've got the firmware installed on the board to test it, and cura recognizes it. just need to remap the pins... I think.
  24. I'm a dumb ape and didn't read anything here. Just wanted to say I got diamond hands, waiting for amc to rocket heard it's a long haul share to hold, speculation is after the pandemic is "over" and we can get back out do live life. Also jumped on NAKD because I heard it was a reddit stonk too. And I'm in for volume not massive prices. And lastly.... Putting my big bets on Doge, elon and cuban both tweeted it nowhere to go but up. Edit. Removed emojis, forgot they don't work here.
  25. Mod thread for katherine my g8 lol So far with 2020 being a crap year with me working all the overtime.... I've only had time to do small mods in the interior. As of now, I've got: Accent lighting in the console cubby and cup holder. Added footwell lighting Rear aux power outlet, this was a Holden option, gets constant power so it's great for the tire pump. Flashed the atari gauges myself over to the 3 gauges. Unlocked the VIM and added a back up camera Can't see it but it's also got bluetooth on the rear aux. rear muffler delete And messed around with making a economy tune. Managed 24mpg with DoD disabled, only changed 65mph cruise cells in the tune still performs nicely but kicking on the highway gets decent mileage....city is still like 16mpg. Mods to come are: Cam and supporting mods. Already have a dod kit, going to use a summit ghost cam.. Stainless works headers and exhaust. Bit of a fan boy. VCM OTR intake. Coilovers at some point Poly bushings. Torsen diff and probably camaro housing with 3.73. Essentially every basic G8 "build" But I'm going to be adding every possible Holden option from the VE/WM platform I can. Puddle lights in the door cards and puddle lights in the mirrors are the next things I'm adding. I'd love to add heated/auto dimming side mirrors but can't find replacement glass that auto dims for the Chevy SS.. Other than the cam going in this spring, I'm also planning to strip the wheels and do clear powder coating, since one has a small chip in the clear I want to fix before it get bad. As for things that need to be fix I gotta replace/refinish the headlights, I want to do custom ones either dual projectors or some Aussie imports that have sequential signals. Front bumper is split and I need to fix that. Super easy. And the driver seat leather is wrecked, going to get all new katskinz leather, would like to get a 2009.5 rear seat bottom that has the cup holder beforehand. Sent from my Pixel 2 using Tapatalk
