Great Day for PIX!

Here are some pics I took today of my VR R1.

Sitting on new Spring springs with Stoptech front and rear rotors. Wheels are 17" Enkei RP-01 with 235 front and 275 rear.





For all pictures, check out: http://homepage.mac.com/whitehill/PhotoAlbum19.html

I also used my friend's G-Tech for the quarter mile. I will post more on that later!

Nate

The Stoptech rotors are stock size, however they are vented and slotted.

Not sure I like the big tires in the rear, but the car looks great.

Gig Harbor, Washington. Located in the Puget Sound about 50 miles south of Seattle. Very quaint and beautiful old marina town.

I am going to sell my RP-01's at some point in the future when I upgrade to 18's. Would you or anyone else be interested?

The car looks good. I personally think the rear of the car needs to be a bit lower, but that's just my .02

I agree. The rear end does need to a little lower. Coilovers are a future mod fo sheezy. However, I am getting the cay dyno tuned in 2 weeks, so the drop will have to wait. I will provide video and a writeup of my dyno when it happens.
