I like the new rims too, looks pretty good...

It was so funny if you guys remember the first time we saw it we were saying how much we don't like the front and blah blah blah and Abdul was just right beside us...

ShinyBlueZ · 10-05-2012, 11:50 PM

you guys are azzholes! you need to wait for people to 'turn their backs' before you talk about how lame LED light strips are!

lol I'm not part of the majority then.. cuz oddly I'm not a big fan of the new sport rims.. I like OUR sport rims

however I remember really liking the new 'base' rims

LMBmikeZ · 10-06-2012, 08:21 PM

with you Ire on the rims the gun metal does look better IMO. My biggest dislike though in the '13s is the none painted fangs takes away from the aggressive look it originally had. I have been able to see one in town here and it just doesn't look quite right.

So, who wants practically new Berk HFC and Stillen Gen 3 intakes? I'm selling mine.

Cold air intake? Yes the stillen gen 3 intake is a CAI. Arguably the best intake for our cars.

yeh i just wanted to be sure. im on this facebook group but its mostly Gs and they go on and on about short rams which in my opinion is retarded. its cheaper, but its also useless ....

edit: i JUST got a $300 ticket for accidentally running a red light at the T intersection in bumper to bumper traffic cuz there was a TTC bus ahead of me and being low and close (and construction all round), i couldn't see the light till i was halfway into the intersection. didn't help that on both sides of me were trucks. Cop was right behind me. Oh well i guess no Berks for me

FFUUUUUUU

Oh man... sorry to hear about the ticket..!!

$300...?? is that a normal fine for red-light?? Take it to the court at least you will have it deduct half...

As for the CAI, short ram is good too, I am using K&N, I do feel the differences 3500rpm and up....

Ouch! That's sucks bad. I hate spending money on tickets

GaleForce · 10-07-2012, 03:32 PM

The biggest down side to short rams is the heat picked up from the engine bay. Other than that they're ok.

alcheng · 10-07-2012, 03:37 PM

That's what the heat shields for, and it seals pretty good.

I don't like the CAI cause every time you have to take off the bumper and mod some parts... yes I am lazy...

I buy my parts for best overall performance improvements first, everything else second.

after installing my springs I vowed never to let laziness affect my choice for parts. I'm def going CAI over short ram w/ heat shield

also I dunno how normal $300 is for a ticket. we were stuck in the middle of the light when it turned on me so I had no choice but to move forward. the bus was stuck halfway in the intersection and I was driving my grandma home so I was distracted by blathering. funny thing is once I got pulled over she got out and walked home (it was less than a block from her place)

The difference on the power gain claimed from both brands are less than 4hp, I doubt there's any actual difference on both during actual driving...

I just don't like taking the bumper off when I have to clean the filter, and the short ram just working fine sound&performance wise, so I am happy with the short-ram.

But of course it is really a personal preference...

Regarding the red-light ticket, are you sure you were at the middle of the intersection during the light change??? If so, they can't give you a ticket because of that...

It's kinda funny that you got

by your Grandma. I would get her to pay for half of your ticket.

Still really sucks about getting a ticket for that though.
