Tirerack probably has the best prices on those. Toyo is the one brand that I can't compete on.

Yes sir. I want to say their shop is in Harrahan. Chi (Richard Slang) actually knows the guys drove one of the R34 GTS-T's and another friend of mine has been to the shop and drove the JDM S13.

On a better note, I just installed the UTEC and I must say its good to finally be able to take my 04 base to a 7200 redline. I just used the pretuned basic bolt-on map they had for it. Car pulls really strong after 5000 rpm. That is all. Whats everyone doing today? Anybody wanna kick back with some pho?

Yeah what he said... ^ The install was pretty easy. Did it in the driveway. Utec was a biatch to fit in so its kind of afro-engineered.

Ay greg, you ever got those pics? My boys still interested.

Oh do what you gotta do. I was just wondering thats all. His seats should be in good condition. Its cloth. I'll ask him to take pictures. He doesn't smoke and actually none of my boys smoke. No stains to my knowledge. But lemme check to make sure.
