Again thanks all. The shoot alone was worth the drive out west, that and getting to drive ttrank's car were definitely highlights for me.

ONR FTW!! (Optimum No Rinse BTW) My car has never seen a DIY spray car wash, ONR is one of the most amazing things I own, 2 buckets, a few micro fiber towels, and an ounce of the goodness. I live in an apartment so no hose washing is allowed and I don't know I would go back to a hose when I can. The results speak for themselves.

Thanks man, the GW pics are my favorite. I might have a couple of more to post later in the week, stay tuned.

Big compliment from the Nismo king, thanks Rob.

It was touch and go for about a month after I bought my rims, deciding if I really liked them or not. Then one day out of nowhere, I fell in love with them and the rest is history. I'd be supa sad if I damaged one since these have been discontinued for ~ 4 years.

Tire love eh? They do look good I'll admit. I get a lot of flack on here for my PS and I don't give a ****, I like it.

Great work, both of you
Thanks Chris, the trip wouldn't have been the same w/o meeting you, Marcus, and the rest of the fellas. Appreciate your hospitality once again.

Marcus great pics as always
I'd be embarrassed to tell you how little I paid for the Wilwoods. Caught a member in Houston parting out his car and got a smoking deal on them.

It's the OG prototype MD VQ twin tip.Love it, love it, love it, and I have ARTs arriving on Thu to complete a full MD exhaust. I have 2 resonaters in the system so it purrs like a kitten until you open her up. Great gains and sound, how can you go wrong with that?

It's worth the drive out west to be shot by Marcus, fo sho!!

It's not all about being cool, it's about doing whatever it takes and you had the chance.

Hopefully soon..... I was planning to get HFC and exhaust before getting tuned, which might take some time, hopefully Shawn's not gonna void my prize for waiting too long lol..... will definitely let everyone know the progress. Too bad I missed your dyno that day! I would love to hear your MD exhaust in person!

Seriously. Chrome wheels has never looked so good.
Even better..it's dropped to a functional height.
Well done and awesome photos.

I need to drive down to Cali and have Marcus work his magic on my car...whenever it's done.

Thanks man, she's taken me 2 years to get to this point and honestly I never envisioned chromies on her. But I fell in love with this rim when I joined 21/2 years ago, only to find out they had been discontinued for some time atthat point. I originally wanted hyper silver (would still scoop up a set in a heartbeat if I could find them) and searched the country for a year and a half looking. As luck would have it I found these in San Antonio just south of me and it literally took me a month of them being on before I knew I loved them.

I think chrome can work on the sedan if the wheel design is simple, it really matches well with the trim around the windows, the door handles, and the color of my car. Not to mention my plenum is chromed as well so with the hood up it all just flows.

It's a sticker I got from jibberjabbers a year ago that says "brake fluid". I plan to shave both covers and paint them LS but haven't gotten around to doing so. Probably won't happen until next spring at the rate I'm going now on mods.
