many of us that are into VIP styling and Dub styling think that we should have our own seperate section to make things easier to talk amungst each other and share our own opinions as well as sell things. i know that there really isnt a lexus section to post things for sale, as well as find things for sale.
me along with many others were wondering if it wouldnt be to difficult to have our own section for VIP and DUB styling.
maybe call it VIP WORLD or THE VIP GAME or something similar. maybe we can decide on a good name?
please and i greatly appreciate everything.

Yes, I'm totally down for a VIP section. DUB and VIP are to totally different styles, so if there some how both, atleast have 2 different sections.

i think having it JUST a VIP GAME section, and then have a subsection inside for DUB styling would be okay too.

NOOOO, why do we want everyone under the sun to have access to VIP?? Just let those of us that are into it start threads in the General car chat and most people won't even notice. Do we really want to listen to a bunch of young ricer putting 20's on their car and calling it VIP??
just think about it before we rush into it....
OH and GOD YES do NOT put DUB and VIP together they are NOT the same thing....

i think a vip section should be in affect, but only give access to those truely into it. kinda how vipstylecars is setup. in order to gain access to the section, you need to have good knowledge about this style, and actually be willling to learn, and share the same interest.
ya dig?

well i only think its fair to at LEAST give it a shot. if a blows up with civics on 20s thhen well shut it down. but if there gets to be alot of weird other sections, i only think its fair to have a vip one as well.

We usually dont make forums if theres only a handful of requesting. The chassis forum has more ppl posting in it and its rather dead.

We as VIP enthusiats should just use Suspension and Chassis forum as our little hide away since Stance and fitment are the two most important things anyway.... Accessories and Pics can go in Genral Car and Photot, but all other VIP info would fit i chassis and Suspension..... Just a thought.
oASHo
08-25-2008, 12:06 PM
yeah i would have to agree with you joe. BUT with that being said, i think they should change the name to stance and fitment, but way other people as well including VWs and cars being considered with both stance and fitment, can post info as well.

chasis and suspension tech to stance and fitment? Have you no respect for the work that treekiller is doing with all the suspension write ups he's added? lol That section has a lot more to offer than useful information for putting 22"s on your maxima/camry/whatever. just my $.02

Ummm, that is our point as well......but I also agree that there is no need to change the actual name of the section. Oh and Treekiller is rebuilding my suspension specifically for my application.....

OK, QUESTION... I'm not the typical 16 year old kid with a fart can on my Honda, although my cup of tea is definitively highly modded Honda's.
Here's the question. Can one of you guys explain the diff between dub and vip to me. I am highly into cars and a mechanic by trade but all I do is forced induction so when it comes to the styling, I just did what looked nice on my 2 Hondas. Thanks guys...

dubbing is considered more of the big wheel thing. like tucking 20inch + wheels on a lexus/infinity/model-t/ etc.
vip is more of the luxurious look tucking 19s or lower with nice stance and fitment.

Ahhh, I see. Well here's my 2 cents then. Let's all look at the top of the screen and read, TAMPA "RACING"!!!!! Not dub city...
Now befor everyone flips take the time to read. I'm sure there are plenty of bigwheel forums for the guys that are into that but this is a site for guys that like performance, Can we keep it that way??? I think those cars look good but as far as performance goes, YEAH, Need I say more? I can understand the so called vip guys being on here due to the fact 19"s on an
S15 with a perfect stance is a drift car by any name. Or a G35 on 18" or 19" wheels would be normal, yet it's a sports car and is made for that. But the part I don't get is the guy with the 94' ES 300 on twinkies with candy paint some airhorns maybe some LV interior may look good, BUT, IT'S NOT A PERFORMANCE VEHICLE!!! It's quite the opposite, turn a corner at 35, it'll flip over. lol... Now if they wanna buy a set of rims then there is a forum for that, and suspention as well, or audio, etc. But it's not about bubbletops and box Chevy's on here, Unless it's blown and has a bigblock. If we go to random site a that's about donks and try to start a forum on turbocharging it's not going to fly, right!!! So in the end even though I like looking at anything that was done right, I don't think this is the site for that type of vehicle.

LOL.. when I saw my name in relation to a "VIP" thread I was excited, untill I scrolled back and saw that this post is for a "style" called "VIP" so never mind. I consider myself a VIP here at Tampa Racing. and hopefully my clients feel the same way. I would like to position myself, and my company as the Go-to for suspension. now that being said I do-not and WILL NOT work on cars that are being modified for purely asthetic purposes. I'm a chassis and suspension builder first! I don't even think about modifying a car without taking all the chassis dynamics into consideration. since a properly designed suspension is way more involved then bolting this part to that one.
sure a car can be set up PROPERLY to use big wheels and with the right suspension can even benefit from the increase in mechanical grip, however PLEASE do not modify Chassis and suspension, it's a good place for Proper suspension questions. If it gets loaded with posts about putting S-10 spindles on your 83 cutlass so it'll support 24's well that's not what it's about. Sure I can modify any car to fit giant wheels but if it goes against my prime directive (to not hurt the performance of the host vehicle) then I cannot be involved.
apparently around the corner from my shop is Jack (off?) boys customs and I beleive they do all that goofy shit. but to keep it professional I will still help anyone confused enough to desire a big wheel mod.. but we will have a talk about what works and what dosent.

um, dubbing by my definition is low and full of stretch and poke.

I think a VIP section would be bad ass. I'm not in the scene but I am very much into it. There is a drifting forum...so why not put a VIP one on here as well.

If were stating facts, your clearly wrong here.
Go ahead and take a look at the forum list:
Photography and Graphics - Not Racing.
Pit Road - Not Racing
Audio - Not Racing
Green Motoring - Not Racing
Paint and Body - Not Racing
So your point is not valid. Although this is Tampa(Racing), we welcome anything "Automotive related."
Thanks,

OMG, HERE WE GO!!! Are you really a mod on here and getting in an arguement? Why don't you take a long hard look at what you just said there smart guy. Everything you mentioned has something to do with racing or can be implamented in the cars that fit the profile of Tamparacing and or a street/strip car. Your buddies dunk wid a smallblock in dat bitch and some twinkies on nat mufuka just don't seem to mesh in here. If that's the case then shit lets add a section for semi trucks and a how to forum on performing the maintanance on the air p.t.o.'s and 5th wheel hookups on your rig. Has about as much to do with the cars on here as a 76 Cutty wit some Guchi letha in it dog.
IF YOU ARE GONNA REPLY TO WHAT I SAY AT LEAST MAKE A POINT!!!
I ALWAYS DO. WHY IS IT SO HARD TO HAVE A DEBATE IN HERE WITHOUT SOME SNOTNOSE BABY HAVING TO STOP AND CHANGE HIS DIAPER? WTF FTW

VIP has nothing to do with 76 cutlas's or gucci interior...
Please check out VIPstylecars.com and you get an idea of what the whole VIP scene is all about.
One example of a great VIP base is the lexus gs300 .. These cars use the same motor as the n/a supras.. In japan they are the toyota aristo and come factory with the 2jz-gte. That motor drops right in the us model gs's.. In my opinion that car can hang with the best of them performance wise..
VIP is all about getting your stance right.. Fitting extremely aggresive offset / size wheels.. Its a very expensive scene to get into.. But you gotta pay to play. Ha!

i'll reply and make a point.
He was right. TR is about cars. If there is enough need for a forum on something specific, we'll add it.
Right now i dont see enough need for a VIP section though.
you need to chill out or halve your dosage or something dude.
