I'm 90% sure on the Re-11s. I plan on doing the occasion track day or auto-x so I think they will be perfect.

Just have to wait until my RE30s sell. I have a buyer just waiting on payment. Hopefully they will be gone this weekend.

So I have been trying to figure out a good way to get the car off the ground so I can put a jack under the front and back. Here is what I came up with:











$23 in materials.

Here is the reason I built the ramps.

Before:






Half way done





I have to say. Removing the 370z stock exhaust was the easiest removal I have ever done.

Installed: FI exhaust with CF mufflers and 18" res. Installed at 835 miles. (still pushing for 1200 miles ASAP)





Sorry, It was raining today so I couldn't get any full rear shots. But I can tell you the the exhaust fits perfectly and the tone is exactly what I was hoping for. FI really puts out a quality product.

My 400th post. I figure it only fitting to put it in here.

I'm going to try and take some full rear pictures of the exhaust tonight. I'm so happy with it. Big props to Jason for the great deal and all the install tips.

Anyone have H&R springs with FI exhaust? I'm thinking the exhaust sits too low for H&R. I might just hold off on installing them and buy KW V3s so I can adjust the ride height.

I'm ordering tires and lugs this week so they should be on next week. I have only taken one of the wheels out of the box so far. Being that everyone keeps giving me a hard time here is a pic.

RE-11s ordered..... saved $200 from what Tire Rack was quoting me. Woohoo.

Lugs nuts ordered also....

Everything should be here next week. Hopefully I can get everything mounted up and on the car asap.



Should I get the flat black center caps? I'm leaning towards getting them. It's just difficult spending $180 on something so simple.

center caps just add extra weight, extra weight means slower car
