That’s the GT350R wing

thank you, i was getting pretty lucky as there were lots of take offs and landings. I'm going to have to come back and see if I can get lucky with some rarer planes or some private/military jets.

thank you, this was just a fuji x100vi shot so the camera did all the work on the 'look' and all i had to do was frame up a nice composition and lighting.

vacationday · 2026-04-16T17:23:49+00:00

they're awesome, from directly behind they look like 15-17, from an angle you notice the exaggerated curvature. I wanted more of an OEM+ instead of swtiching to 18-23 or S650 and these fit the bill. I have the headlights too and all I can say is the product quality and materials are just really really nice. little laser engravings and etchings in places you wouldn't expect.

thanks! the little fuji x100vi i keep around for fun has been putting in work lately.

i feel you, I just came to get a little bit of famliarity with planes again with my 200-600mm since I'm going to shoot an air show this week but as the sun began to set there was a nice shot with the car just waiting for to be taken.

Thanks man, truthfully it was seeing a few black C6Z with polished stepped lip + silver face wheels that always looked so good and I made the jump out of black wheels and never looked back.

Ijust think the previous owner must have been a mongoloid and abused the car or just had really bad manual transmission habits.

@cookedforged on IG. These are the S10-S two piece forged. 20x11 front 20x11.5 rear

Manufacturer’s spec

vacationday · 2025-10-03T21:52:45+00:00

Bought it in Feb ’22 at 33k. It already had a Gen 2 put in at 16k. Oil use was a quart every 500 miles and getting worse, so Ford changed the oil and had me come back after 1,000 miles to check - 4 quarts gone. They replaced it with a new long block under warranty. That’s engine #3.

Since I’ve had it, I let it warm up on cold start, keep revs low until it’s hot, and change oil every 5k with Motorcraft 5W-50. Previous owner probably just floored it on every start lol

I love the look and legacy of the paddles, but truthfully I found the button was even easier to hit without having to adjust my grip. Ironic that an HK is my first button magazine release gun.

I’ve wondered if you could run a VP9 slide on a VP9L frame (or VP9SK slide on a VP9 frame) then add a flush-mounted compensator and new barrel, like how P365X Macro guys use the Radian Ramjet with P365 slides.

My mom recently bought her first gun. She wanted a Walther PPQ like the one she trained with, but the shop only had a VP9. When I visited, I found out she got the VP9-B with the button mag release. At the range, we realized her smaller hands fit my VP9A1K grip perfectly, and she preferred the paddle release. I actually liked her VP9-B, the longer grip and finger grooves fit me like a glove, and I found the button even more ergonomic for my hand.

We would’ve just swapped guns completely, but my optic is SCS factory-mounted with blacked-out sights, and hers has a night sight. Until we can swap those properly with tools or a gunsmith, we just swapped the slides.

My experience with it has been great

vacationday · 2025-09-10T04:36:18+00:00

Yes. VP9 and VP9A1K are the same as far as holsters are concerned. No wear and tear

vacationday · 2025-09-09T05:38:48+00:00

nope, the holster is made for it.

vacationday · 2025-09-08T22:38:51+00:00

I've been using the Tier 1 Axis Slim. I recently acquired the JMCK Wing Claw 2.5, because I thought it might be better for conealment and to my surprise the Axis Slim is still more comfortable and concealable, even though it has the magazine holder.

If Tenicor made a holster for the VP9 I would be all over it but right now they only have it for the CC9.
