They are in arnold but the guy does AWESOME work.


I bought a complete set of G37 wheels, and sold the 19x9s. Then i found someone on another forum selling 2 19x8.5s. Took some time....

well, i did it, the front lip went on today. didnt do the exhaust yet. Thats coming very soon. I could not be happier with the way the car looks. The lip combined with the g37 19s make it look sexxxxxxxxxy.

pics coming soon...ill be in vegas for a little bit then I am going to have a photoshoot next weekend.

2 things...Those G37 wheels look great...next, now that we can see that someone has the tanabe exhaust, can you please post some vids/sound clips if possible. Also does it look like ground clearance will be a problem with speed bumps or the sort, the pics always make them look like they sit much lower than stock exhaust.

Berk HFCs plus Tanabes



You can see in this pic, it actually doesn't hang lower than stock.

Oh yeah it's the HFC, trying to narrow down how to get rid of it, But it's coming from the front not the back, it's either the Stock y pipe not able to handle the flow or resonance from the HFC.

Hey man... Next time you come out this way, you've got to let me know. Vegas is only a few hours away and I'm ALWAYS looking for an excuse for a road trip to Vegas.

Have a good trip and don't gamble away all of your mod money! LOL

Hey man... Here's a thread I posted on the Tanabe exhaust a few weeks ago. There are several pics of the exhaust installed, as well as some sound clips of the stock exhaust and of the Tanabe exhaust with the stock cats.

Incidentally, there is no issue with reduced groud clearance whatsoever, since the Tanabe exhuast is a axle back system and still uses the stock mid-pipe, which is the lowest part in the system.

i completely missed that thread...awesome pics, awesome vids...you present a perfect example of how to do a before and after thread for people thinking about a mod.

Thanks man! I know I always like to see a good "before & after" post before doing a new mod, so I at least know what I'm looking for when I do a thread like that. Thanks again for the great compliment, though!
