Mike your car is getting really nice. I am pretty siked that you picked up the new wheels they look soo good. And all this sound deadening is insane. I am glad you are on top of this with the pictures and keeping us informed. Nice work all together.

We are gonna have to have a meet sometime soon for the NJ and PA guys.

I'm definitely down for another meetup. Just let me know far enough in advance.

It seems that quite a few members are enjoying the progress of this thread. I'm glad so many are enjoying it, but I can say for certain that no one enjoys it more then me.

I got my amps mounted and wired up today. The wires aren't connected to the radio or speakers yet, but they are all ran where they need to be. If I get some time over the weekend maybe I can get some sound out of it.

love your mods dude, im sure you will like the type r. in my old car i ran 600wrms to my dual2 at 1 ohm ported 2.33ft^3 and it slammed.

but due to our car's much smaller trunk i have since converted to a 10w3 in a 4080 box haha.

but like i said before, awesome mods, you do a lot of the things i wish i had the cash to fund... damn college hahah

The UPS truck just arrived and gave me some more goodies. My Nitto tires, rays lugnuts, TPMS, Volk centercaps, valve stem covers and speaker spacers are here. I ordered the lugnuts, centercaps and valve stem covers in anodized red to match my BBK when it gets installed so hopefully it will look good. I'm still waiting on the TPMS brackets to get here from iForged, so I can't put the Volks on yet.
My wife was busting my chops about the speaker spacers saying that I can build all this other crap, but I had to buy simple little spacers. She's right, but sometimes I just get lazy and for the $40 for the 4 spacers it just wasn't worth my time to make them.

So I was bored and wanted to get an idea of what my new Volk setup will look like. Since I have the Aliiance BBK that is anodized red I ordered Volk centercaps that have red trim on them, Rays red anodized lugnuts and red anodized valve stem caps. Of course you can't really tell by having the rim on the floor in my house, but I think it is going to look good. Now if only Alliance would get me my freakin front already I would be a happy camper.

So I just read every page and post of your thread and I have to say...

Besides agreeing with what has already been said about your mod choices, I have to say I am very impressed with not only the quality of the products you are using, which are top of the line all the way around, but the fact that you did all this work yourself at either your own home or at a buddy's house is incredible! I have seen several tastefully modified Gs owned and driven by older, well-established people and with the exception of one other sedan owner I know of almost all their mods are usually installed somewhere by somebody. Age and income level don't even really matter much. I have my mechanic friends put stuff on my car most of the time and I'm 24 and usually broke! I guess that was the long winded way of saying that you obviously know what you're doing and it shows. Outstanding work so far and I am excited to see that SICK new wheel/tire/brake combo on the car!

I just wish you lived closer to Indianapolis so you could help me with my audio install and I could buy that Metra kit from you when you are done with it....
