Nitto NT555s, only about 5k miles on them, have pretty good dry grip. It's true, gains + gains will eventually lead to that. I was just surprised at the amount of gain I seemingly got w/ the addition of TPs, even my wife noticed the extra jump.

Then your wife must be a VQ God. Not an opinion... just a fact.

Today my 16 year old daughter got her Learner's Permit to drive, and no, I won't be teaching her how to drive Dad's 6MT. However, I would let her drive your car, Brad, if you're willing.

I went with Moonface endlinks. They use sealed ball joints like OEM but they're adjustable so you can remove preload. They're expensive as f*ck, but they don't make any noise, so I'm happy.
Dammit you weren't lying about them being more expensive pretty much double the price from what the SPL's ran me.

SFW = Safe For Work - you can click it at work without getting in trouble
NSFW = Not Safe for Work - You can still click on it if you have the *****, but you should probably wait until you get home

I had my ARK CBE on for a couple years before adding FI RHFC and I didn't notice much of a difference in the butt dyno but my ear dyno says otherwise

No, you're confusing me with Newt. I wasted my money on resonated high-flow cats. Brad is the one who wasted his money on resonated test-pipes. Sadly, both of us are really happy with those mods, wallowing in the misinformed contentment of added power.

But really, how would we know? We're so salty, LOL

😂😂 Priceless. But, I concur that the RHFC's are an awesome mod. They make the exhaust smell a tad bit but I like it. Has race car smell.

Wait, so You paid money to replace your cars with other cats? I guess the resonators were worth it. Those gave you all the power. And don't bring Brad into this.... Brad actually contributes to this forum with accurate information. You're just the old guy with the slow car that races altimas and then complains about everything on the forum.

I'm just going to quote that before you change it again. You know... for the kids.

I predict you're going to do great things on this forum, Gregor. People are going to love you, man.

Am I the only one here with a Lifetime Membership? I feel special, and super geeky, all at the same time.

Truth is, this forum and the relationships here (such as they are) are all part of the hobby for me. Owning and driving the car, planning and executing mods, talking about it and sharing that with like-minded people who mostly have the same car... it's all the same to me. It's part of what keeps it fresh and new.

But what do I know? I'm an ogre, arr-r-r-r!
