    Very, very nice, z31.

    17"s are about as big as you can go without fairly big stance. Not to mention drivability issues with potholes. I couldn't pull off anything bigger than 16"s here in WA with our crap roads.
    Need a part? PM me.

          ck, car has a race skids plate on it already. ;)

          Think I'm going to go throw on my black kidneys and see if I like the look of it.
          Hey man, it has M3 CAB's on it

          Car looks great, I still talk about that car and how much I miss it. Already thinking of my next purchase!

          Glad to see her still in awesome shape

          Sold.......again.

                    It is very tidy. Maybe not as meticulous as yours, but pretty close.

                    I like the look Buddy. No SSR stickers though? I like them better with them.

                      Car looks clean Buddy!

                      I guess I've just never been a fan of either of your wheel choices. :neutral:

                      Keep up the good work either way! :pimp:

                          Got the TMS chip in yesterday and went for a drive, not a huge difference, but definitely noticable in the 4-6k range and the throttle response is a bit sharper as well.

                          I figured it did, given the wheel location in fender, but wasn't sure. Just has a bit more work to go be my ultimate DD.

                          Thanks, I'm pretty happy with it and the guys up north did a great job prepping it.

                          Thanks! I liked the Borbet Ts as well, but these definitely serve a different purpose. First Auto-X is coming up in a few weeks.

                          I haven't decided yet. I think i'm going to just scotch tape them on and see if I like the look or not. I was sure I was going to want them on there, but now that the wheels are on the car I'm not so sure.

                          At least the 17s I buy don't weigh 24lbs each!

                          These check in at just a hair over 14lbs.

                              I understand that this car has safely made it back to Virginia.

                              Congrats Robby!

                                Drove like a dream, pulled over the mountains like it was nothing, I was scootin 85 through WV. Man I missed this car!

                                She's definitely in good hands, you did a hell of a job dude, I'm gonna try and make it better (not sure if I can though, pretty close now)
