I trust that whatever Marcus has up his sleeve, we'll all be very impressed.

I would expect nothing less from him.

Progressions like these are awesome to read. It makes you really appreciate all the work that had been done.

So 2 30mm spacers and a 5mm spacer stacked for the Rays...haha.

Haha, ya'll are funny. I know everyone loves my car with the LMGT4s (I do too!), but in order to be flush I had to run large spacers and they have little to no lip. Eventually you had to know that I would change them up.

Planning to post my engine bay updates today. New look without the ARC oil catch can (JDM_Cain now running it). Trust me it will make sense when you see the pics.
