Haven't posted here for a while.. nothing new really. Except I finally got tired of the drone and just obnoxiousness from my momentum. So i put this Megan OE-RS exhaust on to see how i like it (thanks 2004nissan350z - Jay) and i am probably going to buy it. Also hopefully trading the varrstoens on thursday for a staggered RPF1 setup.

here are some pics i snapped today:

Damn...always changing it up! Always looks good. You have a link to those seats? Wondering if they are the same that I have in mine. I'd like to go back to stock leathers, the stocks gave me like a 1/2 more room and felt way better.

Those wheels look great. If I didn't have flares I'd rock them to.

Car sounds and looks great.

Wondering about how well the mdu's will work for you. My front shocks on my stance gr's need replacing and I am debating on either buying new stance super sports, replacing the shocks, or going with any set of coils really, you gonna slam it all the way down on the mdu's?
