What kind/color of wheels does Altspace have on his RX8? I'm curious because I want to go red w/ bronze wheels in the future but to me only certain shades of bronze look good.

On another note I finally got my AEM Oil Pressure and Temperature Gauges in the mail today! I guess I know what I'll be doing next Saturday.

 

[bazooka joe]

bronze is there a specific shade?

Different companies have slightly different definitions of what they consider "bronze" right? I was just looking at some pictures of his and the bronze wheels look really good on velocity red. I'm afraid it won't look as good on classic red...

No john, I all ready have bronze wheels

Find your own color (flame)

Ah, perfect. They're hefty buggers though aren't they (according to some online wheel weights databases). I have my sights set on some bronze Volk CE28Ns currently - just need to get some last engine stuff done (exhaust mani, FMIC kit, intake manifold) before I take a break from HP and start to work on some style.

Mr.engineer should buy me a atp 7psi wastegate since you have money

 

[magnumP5]

Pshh, c'mon, it's only a $60 part

 

[A louie]

Yeah only $60, thats why you should buy it for me!

How bout we go half half on it but I get the wastegate!!! Sounds good to me haha

Installed Polk db571 speakers in the front to match the db651 speakers I installed in the rear last week. Great mid range imaging. These ended up sounding pretty good. Unfortunately now that the speakers sound good enough to turn the volume up a bit, the short comings of the factory subwoofer are really apparent....

 

[fishdonotbounce]

Hey a quick question guys. I realized today that the white dot on the top strut mounts is facing in toward the engine while it should be facing out away from it. Do you think this will affect anything?

 

[aMaff]

Yes. Your camber. In what way? I can't remember lol

 

[justanothermp5]

weeell today i took off the stock exhaust mani, pre cat, and j pipe and ordered a header!!!! yaaaaay!!! turns out i actually stripped the s*** out of the hole in the pre cat and it wasnt making a seal

oh well, header time haha oh and i test fit my turbo mani and my turbo, turns out that i have to remove the egr pipe completely and cap it off or put a breather on it when i go turbo because : 1) theres no egr fitting on the turbo mani 2) it gets in the way if i try to put the turbo in

ahhh it feels so good to do some real work on a car with nothing going wrong
