how much do you guys think i should post these rims up for. they're MB Battles that were driven on for 12 miles. On the car for less than a day. I did manage to blemish one rim when the outer edge of the rim touched my quarter panel and barely grazed the finish on the rim. Tires are Nankang ns-2's 215/40/18 also 12 miles old.

i cant remember the exact figures but it was roughly a little over 800 for the rims, and mid 400's for tires (mount balance and stretch)

Anyone upgraded their factory engine mounts? Trying to get an idea on how much worse the vibration will be. Just snapped the rear pre cat delete in half for a second time and it was recommended that I get better engine mounts to keep this from happening again.
I have the Innovative mounts. I believe they're the 60 ones and not the 75 ones.
The vibration annoys me, you can feel it all the time. I have a 6spd but when driving, you don't feel it at all.
I've had mine for 4 years now and they're still koo.

Then when do you feel the vibrations and what is the difference between the 60 and 75?
You feel the vibrations when idling like at a STOP sign or red light. If you have the A/C on, it'll vibrate even harder.
75A is harder and you will feel the vibrations more. It's suppose to prevent wheel hop better when quick shifting better than the 60A.
I use to do quick shifts with the 60A a few times a month for a year when I first had them, and now they're still okay. Nothing broken

Congratulations are in order again for Dennis aka Digibox aka D-Block! The Box Dat Rox won second place for Best XB at Toyotafest 2012! As some of you know, Dennis took home 3rd place @ last year's event. He then went up one higher this year into 2nd! Congratulations also to our friend Jeff from Photoshootmycar, for winning second place for Best Matrix at the event!
^ Why not just rebuild it instead of finding one that might just go out again? Im not sure how much money you will save, but with rebuilding it, it will last longer, and you get a warranty from the shop.
I got Tech 3 to rebuild mine for around $3000 opposed to the Acura Dealer that was going to charge me $8000. Turnaround time was only 3-4 days.







insane!
