Looks good, so much better than the first set of wheels you installed on it.

starting to really enjoy driving the car being that im still on the gramlights with meaty tires. Mod bug is starting to bite me again being that i havent bought anything for it in a while.
My current wish list.
1- injen intake which i will b getting from my buddy when he gets his supercharger on
2 - tune. Currently thinking Osiris unless someone else has recommendations
3 - also thinking about stillen headers, is it worth it?
4 - bbk, thinking akebono or wilwood. Saw good review on the wilwood but it will be $1600 more than the akebono for a front and rear setup.
5 - i kinda want a 75 shot zex kit but afraid of doing harm to my engine.
6 - new tire setup from cheap 245/40's and 275/40's to RE11 with the size of 255/35 and 265/35.
Recap of what i already have
- Stance Gr+ coils
- SPC toe bolts
- SPC camber arms
- Berks HFC
- Fujitsubo yipe and muffler

As for your wish list, I had the Injen long tube intakes but sold them and now im running K&N drop in filters and i seem to like it more.
Uprev, I have the Tuner cable and tune myself. recommend it X100000
I think you should hold off on headers unless youre getting some nice Long tube headers, i hear that PPE company is releasing some or maybe theyre already out for HRs.
BBK, I have no input I never really cared for them i guess. all i know is the Zs Ive riden in with BBK stopped so hard that it made me feel like my teeth are gonna escape through the windshield.
Nitrous, a 75 is pretty harmless as long as its installed corectly and youre not an idiot with it lol.
love the tire set up because there is no need to go extra fat because those tires are plenty sticky.
I would post some videos but they are frowned upon on here

lol i was hoping you wouldnt ask, the clear coat litterally came off the side view mirrors. theyre matte red (looks pretty awesome lol) but then that is coming off too so its white underneath looks like a$$, the paint is def getting hazy and i actually kept it in the garage , washed it regularily and all that but nothing seems to help, getting its painted soon. my friend is an amazing painter so ill have him do it . i cant wait to see it back to fresh Nogaro red lol

As for the PPE headers, they look good but it looks like it elimates the cats and i need it for emissions.
why are ur vids frowned upon? street racing?
nope, just trying to figure out what to buy next.

yea i street tune, i would like to put it on a dyno tho. you can datalog with uprev , send them you logs and they can send you a very good tune. im sure you can get a Y-pipe with a cat on it like the XYZ pipe from motordyne if you really need to. we dont have emissions here in florida so thats good. yes street racing mainly but some track videos too

was debating if i was gonna go back to nogaro, would be cool to do a custom color close to Nogaro so that i wouldnt have to paint the bay.
