Andrei, today was great. Congrats on being the first ride on 6GC. I still have the car with me so we have to meet up again soon.
Art, I'll look into it tonight and check everything out tomorrow. Jay, The roads in NJ are horrible. I think I'll be happier with slightly wider, lighter 15 inch rims. Wanna, thanks alot. Thanks again guys Jeff --------------------  I will return one day. |

Also an option Tina, I'll have to see how everything plays out. I'm just very worried about blowing out more tires. Maybe a thicker tire on my 17's might do the trick.

In the future I might upgrade the wheels again. Right now I like how my set up is now. Maybe I'll borrow a set of 17's with thicker tires to see how I like it.
on another note....... I found out that I need to wire in my intercooler ECU. Yeah crazy right, I had no clue the intercooler has its own ECU. After I do that I need to jumps some wires going to it, this should get rid of my code 54. Then skys the limit. Oh I brought my car to toyota to show my parts guy.... all the mechanics there where looking over my car then scratching their heads as they look at the engine. Its was great. Once I get all the toys hooked up, I'll plaster this site with videos of it in action Thanks guys DEF -------------------- I will return one day. |
