I was sort of thinking that, but a sedan looks soooo much better w/em. I would definately get some white ones if I was you falken, they would look sick on your car.

Just remember put them lower, not too high up like most people. Maybe like a foot and a half from the bottom of your car.

Peace

I got a dremel, lol. I used it for a LOT of stuff on the turbo install, haha. Ask Les (tommytran). a dremel, hammer, and hacksaw is what I would have to use, haha. Shoulda seem me cutting my exhaust with this hacksaw upsidedown, it sucked.

I would like some sidemarkers though, white ones, about a foot from the bottom of the car

thats what Im sayin. As long as you dont chip my paint like my friend Adam. haha ::runs to the window:: damn cars setting my alarm off. It goes off from every little thing. Is anybody near 24th and camelback right now or within a few miles? I need to take a wire off my battery and ground it, but have only a couple screwdrivers in my car. I dont want to set my settings like 10 more times before I get home.

Maybe next weekend you can come over and I'll have that B for ya, we can chill and dremel.

Peace

If you dont know what B is, PM me, haha

new or used, and how much are they for new ones usually? Those are on the bottom of my list for mods. first I need::

Clutch
Emanage w/all harnesses or EMS(if out)(this year)
completely new fuel system (returnless/rsx injectors)(this year)
build motor some to reliably boost 8-12 lbs (this year)
black/white leather (hopefully this year)
sidemarkers (sometime on some car, lol)

depending on how cheap though, I may consider it much much sooner.

Wheels and tires will be next. Hopefully 17" Enkei RSV wheels in gunmetal. I'm not sure on the tires yet. It will probably be the Falken 512's or the Kumho 711's in 215/40/17.

Im suprised at how much traction the 711s get with the turbo. Before they would have a lot of wheel hop, now they just grip and take off smoothly. Ill really find out on thursday or friday though just how well they grip. I am very happy with them, and their price. arent they a lot cheaper than the Falkens?

Not much cheaper, about $10-12 each less than the Falkens. I just think the Falkens will last longer. I've heard the Kumhos wear kinda fast.

I need an alignment as well. Also my new pipes and IC welded on. Im ordering my new clutch today hopefully, than getting tuned before the cruise, if I have time/money left from mexico. I get back like the 31 or 1st, so I doubt there will be any time to get retuned before the 2nd. After all that, EMANAGE!! since I have to reset my unit every time i get in the car, POS TSI unit. I need to call their *** up.
