Snows needed on all four corners, particularly with the understeer that car has with the OEM swaybars. You'll see. However, the car does have limited slip, which helps you dig out from a stop on snow; (and lay down the traction on pavement.)

I too went from a 5.5 Gen 6MT and ended up here but just with a 7th Gen in between [was bored out of my mind]
Yep, that was me. Six years ago, too.

Snow tires are more about stopping than traction for going fast. Considering your front wheels do 85% of the braking, having winter tires just for the rear is a really bad idea. Stay safe out there

Have not seen that front bumper before, but my thoughts on it seem echo the others here... Interesting...

Still love those vented front fenders though!!!

Oh the GT-R front end. I have not seen that in a while. That is about as good as you can make that look with such different styling between the two cars. The fenders look good. Are they functional for pulling hot air out of the engine bay or do they pull air from the wheel wells?

Did a photoshoot of my G and my friend's STI over the weekend. Slowly funneling through the pics, but here's one of each:

[QUOTE = 4DRZ; 4164479]ああ、GT-Rのフロントエンド。私はしばらくそれを見ていない。それは、あなたが2台の車の間のそのような異なるスタ イリングでその外観を作ることができるほど良好です。フェンダーはよく見える。彼らはエンジンベイから熱い 空気を引き出すのに機能的か、それともホイールウェルから空気を引き出すのですか?


[/見積もり]The fender duct is necessary to let the heat of the brake escape. However, the body rigidity is lost.

The weak point of this car is that there is heat in the engine hood and it is cheap. Does everyone have problems in the summer?
