Currently an A-Spec 3 inch downpipe off the 500r to an RB REV TII presilencer, ypipe and mufflers. I'm trying to convince Sean to build me a 4 inch to dual 3 inch exhaust, we'll see how that goes.

BINGO!!!

The reason why I was asking, I am in the market for the same 4 inch to dual 3 inch exhaust. I was about to call RB, and see if they would do a custom one, but if we can convince Sean

That is Panspeed's last Type II hood for the FC.
Man, that R Magic vent sure looks small now!

no way!?

Not sure, haven't weighed them yet. If I can this weekend I'll see if I can bust out the bathroom scale and find out. Weight will be with tires though since they are already mounted.

I forgot to ask him about that last time I was over there. Next time I'm there I'll try to see what I can do. I know he doesn't really want to be making exhausts all day long though. What turbo\manifold\downpipe do you currently have?

LoL you wish! Is your car done yet bro? Last I saw you had only a couple things left, I could be wrong though.





I was supposed to stop by the body shop in the last few days to speak with the owner and finally seal a date to drop the car off. Unfortunately, before that could happen I came down with a nasty sinus infection\fever. Hopefully I will be able to get over there on Monday. The owner has assured me that once the car is in their shop they will not let it sit around idle and they will be hitting it full force.

His wheel bearings should be fine considering he's also running alot of tire under the wheel bearing. You should only be concerned if the contact patch of your tires are far offset from the wheel bearing.

The body shop finally gave me the green light to bring the car in. I missed my golden window of opportunity a couple months ago due to some unforeseen delays with some of my body parts.

I have a set of Cryo treated bearings waiting to be put in.

Bingo. But I got the cryo'd bearings just in case.

The car should be in the body shop by the end of next week.

My engine should be ready to drop into the car as soon as its out of the body shop. I'm also making an EMS change. I decided to try something different.

Update!!

Well, on Monday my FC was delivered to the body shop and I spoke to the owner about a few things then wrote him a fat check. They are beginning to gut the car. Now I gotta haul all my body parts to the shop. I'm going to try to have everything in their hands by Saturday or the begining of next week. Pics and videos soon to come.

EDFC is coming out.... The new Black EDFC model is going in. Back when I bought my EDFC literally like 1 month later Tein came out with their new version that has smaller motors for the dampers and a black control unit. I looked into getting the black control unit itself but found out that the new black unit will not work with the old motors and the old silver one will not work with the new motors. Somehow I always seem to get screwed like that.

I can't wait to see what he comes out with either. Never before have I been so excited to see my car in pieces. Usually its a depressing site, but not this time! HAHAHA!
