Secret is out on some forums I have been buying a few new toys and the rents saw my grades and decided to buy me a new present. Here is a few pics of what I got so far and a few pics of what will be here next week. I bought, Tanabe gf210's, Wilwood BBK front, I purchased new rear slotted rotors new posi quiet pads and stainless lines from on a dime performance, New lubes for the trans, differential, and engine, and ate super blue brake fluid for the brakes and clutch. The rent bought me a new set of wheels and tires Volk 19" gtm's and I think I am wrapping them in Bridgestone Potenza Re050a Pole Positions or the RE-11r's






last but not least not the wheels I bought but a pic of what they look like. I have ichiba black closed lugs thanks to B2autodesign.

Those are some sweet wheels. I wish my parents would get me something for graduation.... Oh wait, they did almost 3 yrs ago as an early graduation present when I WAS supposed to graduate in '07 haha.
I agree with Lyndon on the RE050a's. I had them on my DPE's and sold them to Ian after a week. They are stretched and didn't look aggressive enough for my tastes.

How much does he charge to powder coat?
From what I have read the R050A Pole position is alot different then the RE050A. And for performance is ranked forth where as my nitto invo is ranked very low.

Ooppss... I had the pole positions. I can't say anything about the drivng characteristics of them, but they just don't look aggressive and they definitely are narrow for their size. I had 245/275 and the 275s compared to my Goodyear eagle f1s, the bridgestones were over an inch narrower.Originally Posted by Kennedy
