Well I found some on ebay for like 480 with the lenses

I really want a tripod though

My dad needs a new camera, however, and he told me to pick one out and keep it under 550.. so Im just going to get this and borrow it as frequently as I can. Fromw hat I have seen, its only gotten good reviews.

Tripods are easy, go to your local best buy/wal mart/target and pick one up. My old one was a $20.00 special that was just fine. I lost the mounting bracket for the camera so I replaced it with a slightly nicer one. Nothing crazy.

First page updated with a few rolling shot pics of my newly fixed Evo.

Note: the car isn't 100% done, it's waiting for the SE lip (body shop ordered the wrong lip) and JDM rear to be installed. Then I'll install my springs, put the BBS's back on and put the trunk with the wing back on.

Yay, springs have been installed. Looks SOOOO much better now. I will do a small photoshoot when I get back from Florida later in the month since it will have the SE front lip and JDM rear on as well.

There is a very big Evo community out there. I miss it. Check out the regional forums, look up ImportJake, inneedof (think it is actually now Billy@englishracing), JohnBradley...etc. Bunch of awesome guys. Not military but great Evo guys. Aaron (JB) is an amazing tuner as well.

No worries man, those are the winter wheels, been said before. Got them because they were big and heavy and fit the tires I wanted perfectly. The BBS are back on now.

I like the pictures, they almost tell a story. And I feel your pain when I saw the pics of your car getting hit. I probably would of lost it. I'm on the same mission as you, I'll be modding my car when I return from the desert. This will be my fourth deployment, and my fourth and final visit to AMS when I return. The last visit to the shop will be the installment of one of AMS's built 2.3rr motors with an AMS GT35R turbo kit. I can't wait! As for exterior I haven't touched it, maybe one day.

Damn man, forth deployment. I feel for you there. I just found out my unit I deployed with is going back in July/August. I feel kind of like a blue falcon not being there to go with them. But I also just found out my gf is pregnant with my first child and we're due in November. As much as I love being a soldier I don't want to miss my child being born, and I don't want to be one of those guys that's never home for the birthdays or holidays.

Good luck over there, get home soon and safe. Your car looks awesome, even if it has no exterior mods. I bet that AMS 2.3 is a beast.
