Thanks for the photoshop shop chrcarlo .

Ash I think the bronze would look good also but for some reason the white makes me think it will give me an aggressive look. With proper offsets and ride height.

The total opposite feel of white and brown could work and if I dont like it then I paint them.

idk about work, but i found muteki to be more durable then rays, gotta be really careful with anodized lug nuts

Thanks Levon, Fresh Ta Def did an outstanding job on the polishing/clearcoat! Here's a better Sedan GTGII pic:







Quick pics with centercaps on:

^Thanks Brad, the polish came out nicely. Maybe next year I'll remove the clearcoat to make them a bit more shinier.

The MD VQ dual is still being broken in (the smell is reminiscent of stale Asian fish sauce ) but I haven't scraped since I did your rubber mount fix and rotated the midpipe slightly per Tony's suggestion. I will probably scrape a little more when I drop the bish a little lower .


Here's a quick video of the VQ dual in action on the 626 caravan down to the Sedan GTGII. At about the 1:12 mark on you'll see me in the rear view mirror and then hear the exhaust as I pass GR6RR (thanks man for the video/pics!) on the left and under an overpass. I can't imagine how much better it'll be with the XYZ and ART pipes.

Anyone have a picture of 19" wheel/tire (no bigger than 8.5, 245/40) in the full size spare area of a sedan? How much does it raise the floor?

you could just measure from the bottom of the the spare tire well to the trunk floor, I doubt anyone would take a picture of that

I don't appreciate your logic. I might just do that but then I'd have to take out the spare and I'll try this way first.

Somebody asks about a 19" tire and somebody responding saying the hump is minimal with the coupe rays.
