Pics of my new Volks!
 
3 Attachment(s)
Hey guys. I haven't been on here in awhile but I wanted to share some pictures of my new car and my new wheels. Sorry for the crappy cell phone pics.

Pikes Peak White 2006 350Z
On Volk RE30s. Which are Volk's newest forged monoblock wheel. So they weigh in around the TE37 and CE28N but are supposedly 30% stronger. I've got the first set in the US.



Here is a mod list of my car:
Nismo LSD
Nismo power steering cooler
Turbo XS UTEC engine management w/ wideband
Strupp test pipes
JWT popcharger (intake)
ACT clutch
ACT flywheel
Track Model Brembos
Stoptech Stage II Kit (lines, rotors, pads, fluid)
Volk racing RE30s 18x9.5 18x10.5
Falken Azenis RT615s
HKS Hipermax RS coilovers (on order)
SPC rear camber/toe kit (on order)
and other stuff I'm forgetting

I've basically gotten all of my wheel/tire/drivetrain mods out of the way and am moving into the suspension. After I'm done with the suspension, I'll probably move on to aesthetics and engine performance.

i like white on white the best but that still looks really nice

estebomb_ftw 01-22-2007 11:06 PM

White on white is the hottest. Looks good though. Rear looks a little high?

Drk01Civic 01-22-2007 11:12 PM

Yeah. Coilovers are on order. The rear of the 06s is really high.

Thanks for all the comments guys. I got them from Andy @ Performance Nissan. MyNismo.com - Home Page They have kick ass service and sell aftermarket parts for all types of cars. Definitely a place to call if you want some sick ass Japanese wheels.

I think, technically, the RE30s get released next month but Andy is in good with the guys at Mackin Industries and got a pre-release shipment.

The gold is a custom color I had to pay a little bit more for but I thought they would look good and I wanted to be a little different from others that will order this wheel.

The offsets are +18 in the rear and +15 in the front, so I had to cut the rear fenders in order for my RT615s to fit. I'm also gonna have to run a little negative camber. I'm thinking about -1.5 all around. That should give me better turn-in, as well.

That's the plan after I get my suspension all dialed in! :D

I'm gonna run the HKS coilovers, SPC camber/toe kit in the rear, Cusco A-arms in front, and Cusco sways front and rear.

spoonEM 01-23-2007 06:16 PM

^that sounds like a good idea.

civydcex 01-25-2007 03:31 PM

svtec 01-25-2007 03:55 PM

This guy. :rolleyes:

Drk01Civic 02-18-2007 06:34 PM

Here are some updated pictures. I just installed some HKS Hipermax RS coilovers. Next up is a SPC rear camber/toe kit and Cusco control arms and sway bars. Then I may add a bodykit but I'm not sure. If I do, it'll probably be the C-West N1 kit or the Nismo Version 2 kit.

RHCP0801 02-18-2007 07:17 PM

Drk01Civic 02-19-2007 09:25 AM

Thanks guys. I wanna dump it but my driveway is kind of steep. It almost scrapes at this height.

kasimmmmm 02-19-2007 09:45 AM
