maybe he should do both sides!

yeah!....

maybe something more aggressive to match the aggressive bumper. i also have the evo-r, but stock looking lines that match it well. just got my aerosync bumper, which will match it well with some smooth looking side skirts.

Think that's a regular IS, the fenders are not flared and vented. Hood doesn't have the hump like the 07-08 Zs. Glad you got rid of them, those wheels were horrid.

Adjusted clutch clevis rod the other day to shorten up the engagement point. Loved it until the car got warmed up and now the clutch doesn't seem to want to fully engage when I've got the pedal pressed all the way down all the time.

I guess three full turns was a bit too much. Going to back it off one turn tomorrow and see what happens.

And there's nothing wrong with a little cell phone photo filter rape now and again

Yea i noticed the fenders weren't flared and vented and ended up confusing me. I said it's a v8 and he said no v6.. Idk much about them but seemed a little fishy to me. I'm thinking my the dealer sold it as a isf when in reality it was a Is? I didn't get a change to see the car in person that's just a pic he sent me after installing the wheels.

I like the engagement point being very high. Don't have to fully press down to engage and it. Throw times are quicker and leg muscle isn't murdered.

No, but I'm definitely going to look into it. I'd do anything to fit a wider wheel and tire under there WITHOUT having to camber and herrafrush the shiz outta it. Ah, the never ending search for traction. I'm needing 11" wheels and at least 305 tires in the rear. Would like to run a 315 Nitto NT05R though. Problem is I love the *looks* of my setup right now. But it's definitely function over form how it is right now.


edit: i'm also looking into something like this. Seibon makes 10mm wider front and rears. Too bad they are stupid expensive.
