Sounds good!But, while we're spending YOUR money, how about a spacer and cat-back?? Personally, I would pass on the 20's, they are more show than go expecially with the pot holes around my house. Put that money toward other go-fast mods!

Hey Phil, just noticed - Carrolton GA!. My cuzins live there!My uncle used to teach at West GA and my aunt taught at some community college near there. Been to Carrolton numerous times. Spent many drunken daze and nights fishing on Lake Weiss where they used to have a log cabin. Near Centre. Good times!!!

Yeah, theres no point in adding mods to gain hp if your throwing 20's on her...kind of a waste.

I would suggest suspension over 20s. Take a look a Kenrik's sig. He's running 18s, but they look big enough because of the rim design and the lack of wheel gap.

One day I'd like some 18x8.5/9.5 AME Shallen CX with dropped suspension.

Cheaper tire, better fuel economy, better cornering all for the low low price of $3500 Rims are Forged 1 piece with like 4-5" lips.

If you're gonna compete, do a stereo. EVERYONE has rims at nopi...kind of a dime a dozen. The best cars have FI and a sweet stereo.

But, you don't have to go all out if you're not a serious competitor. I won 3rd place last year with intake, exhaust, and a custom subwoofer setup.

I'm going! I just don't see the allure of aftermarket rims when the Infiniti 19's are so sweet!

Rich,

It looks like the fish got the best of you (end of your thumb).

Nice catch.

Get some high flow cats, instead of test pipes. You won't have an annoying CEL.

oops, i got test pipes like 5 hours ago. and i dont care about thread jacking, nice fish :-)..... but i have a question on the spacers. whats the difference in the sizes? i saw on everythingg35.com that 3/8 was less expensive than the 5/16. i figured 3/8 would be more space so more power? im confused

There is only a couple, and I mean a couple of extra horses you get by using the 5/8 spacer. I went all out, and got the 5/8. I now wish that I had bought the 3/8, since it's going to be a tight fit to get a FSTB in there.
