They are the stock sizes. But yes they are directional.....not that they matter much lol

a front wheel from each side would be best and just as a safety measure.

Thats what I was thinking, I will do that then. Just need to remember to take them out of the trunk the day we go riding on the dragon so I don't have shiiiit flying around in my trunk like the day we went on the twisties in southern MN. This dip$hit forgot to take my springs out and that was all over the place

Yea you will want to have one with all that done, otherwise you won't really be getting all the benefits of it. I will have similar mods to you and I will be getting one.

She doesn't even like to use the D word.....but we've been hanging out for a couple months and doing things that couples do for the past 5 weeks or so I would say lol. Got a little crazy at Lance's party
Oh sorry '05....

Well I will have to look into a tune for spring break then

Well just have to see where it goes!

PS...just post your other mod in your sig already, there's no hiding it...or I'll post it for you I'm really going to try and get one ordered too b4 FL. I just dropped more then what it would be on a different part......



They advise a tune for intakes, cats, and CB..so yes, you DEF need a tune!!!
I put all my mod brands in my sig... do it Mike!
Tune is on the way before Florida then

Dude... If she's cool with being on your team with no official commitment then more power to you. At least this way, if it gets crazy in FL you're not required to hold back
Haha solid point...

Note to self: can't get a lady friend until AFTER Florida

I mean 1. your toe is dead on 2. your camber is or close to specs and 3. you have no rubbing issues. We're driving a long ways, and I want to make sure no one tears their tires up or have issues on the way.
Remind us all when it's closer to the time lol. I will probably get mine checked before we go just to make sure.

I have a dougnut but that's all I should need because I will probably still be on the 18's...

so is there any decent trusted paint shops? I dont need the most expensive paint job ever, just really need my sideskirts and front bumper repainted. I can get it done here before I get the car shipped over to MN, but i'd rather see the results in detail. My front bumper is SCREWED up bad!

Just thought i'd also share a video of mine from my 2nd or 3rd Auto-x. haha i was in 3rd gear which you should barely ever use! man i've learned so much!

also, wish my g35 parts were interchangeable with you guys, i have so much suspension stuff i would love to get rid of soon.

^^^Besides the spin out...seemed you were doing pretty damn well! I hate the stupid cones...I don't know how you guys can even tell where you're suppose to go from those stupid things

For paint...we can talk on Sunday. I have a guy I've had all my stuff done by which is absolutely flawless, and I know Tevi has had quite a bit of paint work done as well by a guy on the west side of the cities which seems be be pretty legit as well.
