You don't really want the 18/10 it rubs badly when u hit a bump but only when I passengers or something heavy in the trunk + they are discontinued I think u can only 18/8 on tirerack......

As for the assco flywheel I do have 1 but my Lil bro just got a cl6 so I don't know what he wants to do yet I know he wants 3.5 but he stI'll has to learn how to drive stick but he's very undecive

Yeah I figured that was too aggressive. I'll just go with a 9.5 I wasn't meaning for me to get a set, I'm pretty set on getting work meisters s1's and do a custom color setup to be different.

Lol tell him to make up his mind so you can sell it to me!!

I saw that but it doesn't look like they have much interest in them. I don't want to wait very long.

I picked the headers up today from getting ceramic coated, they turned out great! These cell phone pictures don't do justice. Enjoy!

I went to my friends shop today. Were going to get my car on the lift early next week and take some measurements to figure out what materials we need to finish the exhaust. Once those come in, I can install the headers and we can finally finish everything up. We also have to install the aem fic to fine tune everything. I'll keep you guys updated!

I bought brand new weathertech visors and headlights. I also changed the oil and filter today. I bought a aem fic a couple days ago so we can tune the car once we finish the exhaust. I wanted to have clear corners and wanted fresh headlights so I decided to just buy a new set yesterday. My old ones will be for sale soon. I don't have any pictures with the visors and headlights installed yet. I will snap a few tomorrow, I'm very happy with the way they look.

Me either hopefully everything works smooth. I'm surprised no one else has went this route. I would like to hear their opinion about it if they did.

They fit into the window track. They come tinted lightly already. Mine just look darker since I have 5% tint on the windows.

Washed the cl-s and tl-s today. I also tried on my friends volk te-37's just for shit's and giggles to see how it looked. His specs are 18x9.5 +12 with a 215/40 tire. I know it is the wrong offset and my fenders aren't rolled at all. Now I have a idea what I want my specs to be based off how these didn't fit lol. I took some crappy cell phone pictures enjoy.

Those would look so dope IMO. Of course you would need to be really low and probably running a decent amount of neg camber but still, would be cool.

Yeah it would take a lot of work to make those fit right. Honestly I really didn't like the way it looked at all and they aren't my style of wheel. I'm probably going to run something in the low 30+ range for offset.

Should still be a good looking setup though!

Oh yes I was actually looking at the nitrous kit yesterday to see where I'm going to tap into for the fuel supply and where to put the nozzle. My P2R throttle body spacer has a 1/8 npt hole but my nozzle is smaller than that so I might just get a newer style one. Yes it is I made a wtb thread on here a few months ago for one but no one had anything to offer that I really wanted. It's a 08 black on black type s with a spec lip kit, wheels, and suspension. It was for sale on cars.com locally for three days before I picked it up, I'm lucky.

That wheel doesn't have enough offset it's too aggressive for my style. I want to run a bigger tire than that also.

My buddy owns one of those tools. I will have to do the same thing once the time comes. I plan to run the same size tire or maybe even a 235. Looking good rush. Do you have any pictures of where you tapped into your fuel supply for the nitrous? Also where did you put your nozzle? If I don't get a new nozzle I can always put mine in the intake tube.
