      They are Yokohama es100's. Everyone says they suck, but they seem decent for daily driver duty and they look pretty good. Just don't try to auto-x with them because they do suck at that.

            It's stahl long tube headers into an 18" universal 2.5" in and out magnaflow. It's too loud for everyday use, but it sounds absolutely ridiculous at high rpms. Can't wait to see how it sounds after megasquirt, when it isn't falling on its face at 5500 rpms

            Thanks man! I really like them too, even more now with the bigger tires.

                Nope, a friend of mine knew an older guy that is a really experienced aluminum welder, said he was confident he could fix it and he did. It looks amazing, if the paint matched you wouldn't be able to tell anything happened

                  you sir, share a very similar tuning approach as my friends and i do.
                  well rounded performance first, stance and cleanliness will follow as force of habit.

                  nicely executed, and congratulations.(i wish i had some better wheels than what i have now :()

                      Thanks man. I was really into the stanced look for a while, but I got away from it a bit when I realized how much better the car feels when pushing it with proper sized tires. Cleanliness is coming though, I haven't polished this car in almost two years so a proper detail is definitely in the works after I finish tidying up the engine bay and interior.
