Not sure on this one. OCG35 may know... Mike??

 

I can do that.

 

Can anyone tell me what the stock exhaust piping diameter on an 05 6mt is?

 

I'm not sure on the MT... I know on the AT the TCU went inside the trans on 04.5 (previously outside) I think its an upgraded TCU... the ECU could be upgraded, but I'm not positive... they advanced the ECU technology quite a bit from early 03 to late 03 to 04(.5) and continually... cosmetically they are virtually the same though.

Something else changed and I cant remember what it was... every time the question comes up someone mentions it and I say "oh yeah, I forgot about that"... and now I've forgotten again

The best way to tell if you have an 04.5 is by VIN:
JNKCV51E*4M 600001~
and
JNKCV51F*4M 700001~

If your VIN is in those ranges you have an 04.5

 

Stillen was working on a radiator for the sedan... word has it it's out... David got one (I think his user name is speedraver?)… I was at DaveO’s house this weekend and David was suppose to come over with the new rad, but didn’t show…

I’m interested in knowing about the ATF cooler in the Stillen rad… and if the in and return lines to the trans are threaded connectors – I’d like to re-install my B&M ATF cooler but would rather have threaded hose (previous hose clamps came loose and the line blew off, I lost a bunch of fluid and no gears).

Anyway, you might want to include Stillen’s new sedan radiator in the update.

 

I just bought coupe 19's . I am looking for tires and was recommended the Bridgestone Potenza's. They only come in size 245/35-19. I dont really know anything about tire size but ttrank said that he is using 245/40-19's. Anyone know if the 245/35-19's will work? Thanks

 

I have a set of Bridgestone Potenza's in 245/40/19's. They are RE050's.

IMO 245/35's look better as long as the car is lowered.

 

the car is not lowered , but i need the all seasons because it snows in new jersey and gets icey. Are they going to look dumb if the car is not lowered? If so i can get other ones that are 245/45-19.

 

No, it won't look dumb at all. 245/45's are a bit big IMO, is your car an X or RWD? The X sits a little higher.

 

It is an X. I don't think it will look bad either, i just dont know what the measurement is referring to. I am really looking forward to getting these. I want to black the whole thing out including the chrome around the windows and the door handles. What is the 45 measuring? How did get your grill black? Thanks.

How did I get my grille black? I painted it.

 

damn... I thought it was from hanging upside down from the rear axle... I figured all the paint rushed forward and covered the grille

*side joke from another thread (for those of you that are scratching your heads)

 

yea, but with what? thanks for the sizing chart on tire rack, that really helps.

 

The VRT/Relentless front strut bar fits the sedan with a spacer just fine... you just won't be able to use a cover with it.

 

What is the widest tire size I can put on my stock 18s? I'm currently running 255 rear, 245 front.
