read thru last thread, 99% of brands only make 1 fitment in 5x130 since 5x130 is only porsche... so they make stock offset or maybe stock +5mm..

i custom ordered some works (agressive) but to get 5x130 (needs special centers made because the hub bore is much larger than average car.. so u cant just drill some G35 meisters 5x130 ;-)) and then get 14mm ball seat, etc etc etc.. takes time.. works should be on car in september, could have had HRE's on the car sooner but too many people do P40 monobloks on the porsche.

im not about to "slam it" and "tuck" its a ~35mm ride height reduction and then corner balanced so a little more/little less than 35 depending on corner.

yes, just got the second one because the new models have PDK,and have the new/faster/lighter/lower center of mass direct injection engine.. along with the sexy LED fronts and tails :-D

its PDK, please educate yourself before making any other comments..

PDK=double clutch 7 speed manual transmission.. same transmission as ferrari's equipped with "F1' trans, same as BMW's racing DCT trans, same as GTR's only available/offered transmission ;-)

its manual without a clutch, and just god awefully fast :-D

brom's are nice, but then again.. lot of people have brom's and they are heavy... noone has yet to put meisters on a 997.. so i went that route.. will have 83mm lip front and 109mm rear lip.. on 315's

i never liked the 996.. but as soon as the 997 came out i loved how they reused the lines from the 993... but of course with a more modern engine/interior

both cars swapped from standard dual tips to custom locally made quad exhaust with bypass baffles installed so the car basically goes from
muffler silenced below 3k to straight pipes above 3k.. so u dont kill yourself on long drives from the drone.. and you dont raise too much hell from the neighbors but when you get on it.. you have all the noise and power one could want from a nice exhaust system.

basically the pipes are a U shape going to the mufflers on either side.. their is a bypass pipe with baffle that opens/closes on each side as well.. sort of like the 3k "sport exhaust" they offer but without the wimpyness of having to adhere to the pollution guidelines/etc.
