Default The Unofficial WA BS thread

I noticed that we didnt have a BS thread where we can just shoot the breeze. I decided to start one, because I didnt want to post this in the Meet Thread

I had been thinking of getting my fish tank out of the garage and into the house. I forgot how much a PITA it was to get it out. I finally did it and ready to set it up.
I just need to go out and buy all the filtration system, lights and of course fish. I will post pics of my babies once I get them in the tank.

I needed to find another hobby to get my mind off the car. I couldnt sleep lastnite, so I figured this could be an alternative for now.

That was it for now. I will post back later

I like the white IS-F, it looks aggressively mean.
But what engine are you talking about, IS-F or the Porsche

I am getting a Managunese(jaguar) and a Jack Dempsey. Gonna start with babies, since they are cheaper. And I like to watch them grow.

I just got done getting everything all set up. I had to go buy new equipment, since I dont know what happen to my old setup. New bio filtration, hoods with lights, gravel, heater and a thermostat. That sucks, I didnt want to spend that much
Since the tank has been sitting for a while, in the garage. I figured I would run it for 3 days, change out the filter, and maybe change the water.

EDUT:

I still have to buy plants(fake), rocks for the fish to live in and a syphon tube.

haha I didn't have to, the owner of the car did it for me. To my knowledge, this is only the 3rd IS-F in Oregon (Lexus of Portland only received 3 so far) I've seen a blue one around before but white is by far my favorite.

Lexus of Bellevue is bringing them in and before you know it. Its sold.
They had the 2 limited ver IS-F, on top of many others.

I didnt care for them, but after seeing the white. I might consider buying one of them, in like 10yrs lol

!
For sure, when you hit 3,600 RPM the second intake opens and you get a nice raw. One cool thing with the IS F is that you can use the paddles to change gear without having to shift the gear stick into manual mode. Use that often to get the raw at 3,600 RPM.

Lexus of Seattle has not had any since October 2008. I am told I had the last one. I'm not sure that this is anything but a direct order car at the moment. I've seen a Mica Blue, a fellow Starfire Pearl on I405 - was interesting. I told my wife I had to sell it now because it was such a common car. Saw a black one in Top Foods in Edmonds on CA plates. It was whipped, the engine sound bad and the wheels were all curbed - very sad.

I just need to get rid of those summers tires, they suck so bad here in the NW. Anytime it drops below 72F outside, the wheels lose traction. In the hot spot we just had, they were awesome for sure. But this is my daily driver.
