Wow. Look at all that sidewall! (LOL)

But seriously, what's not to like here? Nicely matched to your black car, Brad.

Appreciate the kind words guys, looking closely at the quality of the wheels I have a new appreciation for the guys that harp on JDM quality products.


When I compare these to my previous wheels it's a sad comparison TBH.

Glad you're happy

I've focused on country of origin for some time now, in more than just car parts, and while most people don't care, there is definitely a difference IMO.

Honored to have been a part of your build Brad!

Great choice with the SA10Rs, Weds are quality, definitely pretty underrated!

Uh oh, this thing's going viral
Thanks for the heads up William, now I just need to make time to get the G cleaned up proper and take some actual "dragion-worthy" shots
But I would need a photographer w/ a quality camera (hint hint)

Unfortunately, no plans to visit New Mexico this year...
Maybe see if you can manage to get some similar style photos taken and I can see if I can put some "dragion" touches to them?

How much were the OBX test pipes shipped to your door B, if you don't mind me asking?

I've googled them but i'm not having any luck finding much on them much less a price. PM me if you want, thanks....

So that big j-shaped sensor extension spoofs the signal? That's the design Fast Intention uses, too.

You know, I've not priced TP's, but compared to HFC's, that's a heck of a good price. Catalyst material must be pretty expensive. I wonder if a corner shop would look at that resonator and think those were cats? At only $160, I think I would have taken a shot with these and see if I could get by here in NY. Inspections are serious, but they're also just visual.

Catalytic converters contain platinum, palladium, rhodium, and a smattering of other metals. Platinum makes up 3 to 7 grams of the metal content. It's a trivial exercise to find the cost of the pure metals and what recyclers pay.
