Finally got my ride hooked up.

Thanks to Jason at Performance Nissan I hooked my ride up a bit with a few mods.

Performance Mods:
1. 19inch Volk TE37 (Gunmetal) F19x8.5+29 R19x9.5+36.
2. Bridgestone SSR tires F19/245/35 R19/275/35
3. Fujitsubo Legacy-R exhaust.
4. Fujitsubo Y-pipe.
5. Nismo Headers.
6. Z-tube.
7. Polished Crawford Plenum.
8. Tein Flex coilovers with EDFC(on order, coming soon!).

Non Performance Mods:
1. Clear corners.
2. Alum. Pedals.
3. Skyline door sills.
4. Skyline/Nissan badging front and rear.
5. Nismo titanium shift ****.

Car is starting to come together :-). I'll have to read about how to post pics.

Headers were $1125+tax, and were like $350 to install, but their guys did a hell of a job, highly recommended. Quite an improvement in performance, while not being all that loud.

Get some pics, I have been dying to see a DG with the TE37 Gunmetals. They are the wheels I want on mine but I wasn't sure how it would look on the DG. Is it dull looking?

Re: Finally got my ride hooked up.

You're running 19x8.5" fronts with a +29 offset and 19x9.5" rears with a +36 offset??? Do you have Brembos?

Lastly, I think it's the Fujitsubo Legalis-R Exhaust, not Legacy-R, but who knows I may be wrong... LOL

Re: Finally got my ride hooked up.

ducatiguy,
You are right on the exhaust name. For some reason I was thinking it was Legacy, silly me.

Yes, those are the sizes and offsets I'm running. That is what Volk is recommending for the Skyline with Brembos per their 2003 product booklet. I was a bit worried as it seems everyone is running +22 offset which barely clear the Brembos.

Is there some way to resize my photos with a Microsoft utility that already comes with Windows, or do I have to try and find some freeware, what are you guys doing?

Re: Finally got my ride hooked up.

Yea those are some nutty offsets! I use Photoshop to resize and edit my pics. Its great, but its pricey to buy. You can get a trial version to try out. Other people make similar programs like Paint Pro which is a lot cheaper to purchase. You can get some free programs, but their features are usually limited. Look up photo editing shareware software on the net. You should be able to find some links and "brand X' type companies who make them.

Worse case, if you want e-mail me your images and I'll help ya out.... ducatiguynyc@aol.com
