MICHAEL WATTS 05-31-2010, 03:44 PM Mines to dirty to take a photo right now, just taking a break from some grilling. Got back from a 3000 mile road trip a couple of days ago and the e has not been washed yet. Yours looks good today!
MICHAEL WATTS 05-31-2010, 03:49 PM Insane-- i need to replace the cabin filter, is it under hood , or inside ? Any idea.

fatfurious2 05-31-2010, 05:24 PM where did you get your mudgards? they dont look stock. Im going to go take some pics tonight with my 40D... I want to learn too, but Ive had this camera for 2 months, and I havent used it. Im thinking about selling it, and using the money for more mods :grin:
Burn619 05-31-2010, 05:27 PM Looking good insane_sc! Nice pics. I like how the grass makes it look lower.
insane_sc 05-31-2010, 05:30 PM Nope, they are stock, may just be the 10inch wide rim in back throwing you off, lol.
z(+)diac 05-31-2010, 05:33 PM Love the clean look...though I'd definitely get the front two windows tinted.
insane_sc 05-31-2010, 05:33 PM Looking good insane_sc! Nice pics. I like how the grass makes it look lower.
Thanks!!! I have a lot more work on the little stuff ie: paint calipers, tint....
And yeah, the grass fills in the underneath a little.
bassplayer5504 05-31-2010, 08:35 PM What are the specs on your wheels Steve? I have been thinking about going wider with a lower offset. It looks wicked awesome by the way!
insane_sc 05-31-2010, 09:15 PM Front: 20x8.5" +40et with 245/40.
Rear: 20x10" +40et with 275/35(had a 285/35 for 2 days but needed to go against my stretch rule and got the 275 so I could get a rounded profile on the sidewall to be able to bring the camber back to -1.3degrees, I still rub even with cut and rolled fenders, but that will be taken care of soon)
The tires are General UHP's, they ride very smooth, minimal noise, and even with the wide rears and ohio roads, they track very straight in grooved roads, and after hours of tuning the ksports, it finally rides great, even with the family in it, loving it.
BTW, Thanks for the compliment.
Steve
MacGyver 05-31-2010, 09:56 PM Awesome E and gloss black is the most challenging to photograph! The photos are good but you might want to play with exposure compensation next time. The camera sees black and tries to compensate for it which is why the photos come out slightly overexposed. Since the camera tries to turn black into medium gray, start with negative 1/3 to 1/2 EV.
insane_sc 05-31-2010, 10:09 PM Thanks for the tip, I will definately try both settings, I was trying everything today, there is so much to learn.
snowdreams1080 06-01-2010, 07:15 AM dude, its a completely different ride from before. Looks great!
toasty 06-01-2010, 08:54 AM Very clean insane.....I do think I will have to purchase me a set of those mudflaps. They really do add something to the look of the vehicle.
I just got my wife the Nikon D5000 and she is slowly starting to try and learn all the crazy things it can do. Love the camera though.
hownowcb 06-01-2010, 09:52 AM OK, though I'm not quite drooling over insane_sc's pics the way some are, I certainly do like the look, believe me. That said, I'm interrupting (actually redirecting) the thread back to its original subject: Memorial Day Photos, Add your E's...
So here's my E, and what we were doing with it this Memorial Day weekend.

And now, back to the discussion of wheels, tires, etc... ;-)

Steve... your SC is presenting some serious attitude now! I love the stance, and the wheels have added a total silhouette look to your ride. I agree with Burn, the grass shots really make it look like it's even lower. At night it must look like a shadow in the dark. "Great job!!!"

His splash guards are for his Element SC which are different than the ones that go on your EX model.

HOTBOX1208 06-01-2010, 07:39 PM I gotta say your SC is looking pretty sick!! Love the black on black and it's sitting at the perfect height. Did you always have those wheels?
Hondamade4dogs 06-01-2010, 08:30 PM Kayaking on Memorial Day, and I can see the Element

Thanks Chief, that means a lot coming from you, since you have one of the best E's out there. Hopefully when I come out to socal on the first week of August, we can meet up, would be awesome.

Thanks HOTBOX, and no, I just got the wheels this year, I had other 20's last year, sold them, well sort of, put them on my wife's car and she bought these ones for me. These are the rims I originally wanted, someone else beat me to it but in silver, I said screw it and got them, its what I always wanted.
Thanks everyone for the compliments, it means a lot.
Steve
07RBM 06-02-2010, 08:47 AM My wife's daily ride... I really need to lower it bad can you say wheel gap :x
