i forgot that i made this thread.....
lets see since the last time i posted here lots of things happend to the G:
i was about to start buying for my FI project when i started noticing an increasing OC between changes took it into the dealership and started the "OC test" even though my car is a 5AT, after 1000 miles i brought the car back and there was no oil on the stick and was offically recorded as being 2.5 quarts low
handed over the keys and left it with the dealership and agreed to having their master tech (my buddy Pete) and a tech from Corps tear down the motor to find root cause, 1 month later after worrying my self stupid to find out if im buying a new motor or free it ended up being free and coming under warranty (like it should have) then another month went by and i got my car back stronger than ever HOWEVER i changed my mind on how i wanted to mod the G from FI to Wheels and a Body kit
i got my car back in Nov of 2011 and began acquiring body kit parts and figuring out what wheels and specs i wanted but i needed to get all my aftermarket stuff back on but i didnt want to go with test pipes on the count of they 'could' have caused the OC so better safe than sorry i ditched the Invidia and ART pipes for a Fast Intentions system w/ FI HFC then tuned by UpRev
bought:
Strafe Authentic Kruama Z front
Strafe Authentic Impul SS
Arch Ind. Chargespeed Rear
ended up setting up a Work Wheels group buy for my wheels and ended up ordering:
Work Gnosis GS5 in BRU finish
20x9.5 +14 R-disk
20X10.5 +13 O-Disk
with Hankook V12 EVO tires
255/30/20 & 285/30/20
Black closed ended Work lugs
on top of all that i also got my SPC front Camber kit, new shocks and White line adjustable end links for my Eibach sway bars done recently so im ready for those 20s!
the wheels should be here in June and i will be spraying the kit this month
