Installed y pipe. Non resonated with the tomei. Its a bit louder and more raw. Still no rasp and low drone. Very well made exhaust no doubt.

12k 8k should ride pretty smoothly. I'm on Hipermax IV with 14/16 spring rates, and it's honestly pretty smooth. Only problem I ever have is when I hit a series of bumps it is like riding a roller coaster haha

Yea man its smooth and im still playing with damping to see where i like it. Currently 8 clicks front 5 rear. Think ill bring rear up to 8. Super happy just to be rolling. Going to add lockout kit and toe arms next. Thinking of voodoo 13 as they look well made

I've been thinking about getting the SPL lockouts as well. I had circuit sports toe arms and never had any complaints other than that they were a pain in the neck to adjust due to the design of the arms. I really wanted to pick up some Battle Version ones whenever I had the true style coilovers. But SPL and Voodoo are also super solid choices. I've looking at the SPL tie rod ends and whitelines as well, getting a tad bit of bumpsteer.

Belts, both.
A/C belt crapped out at just the right time (middle of Summer), Serpentine was tired.
Not worth pics, went w Dayco/AutoZone. $42 and change for both.

i have a popcharger on my car also......i bought the spectre air filter and bought a 350z maf adapter and that was it.......a good 30 bucks lol.

the jwt, or aftermarket highly priced intakes like k&n i think are a waste of money. your really just paying for the brand. the mechanics is all the same.

The JWT is pretty low cost. It's worth the extra $80 just so you dont have anything branded spectre on your car. And you have a filter that might actually filter and flow effectively. Just my thoughts though...

As for the topic I put in my sweet rice pins. I feel like I put owens corning in all day. (Should have worn gloves) my holes look like *** under the scratch pads. Glad they covered them.
