Nice looking car. Clean with lots of JDM goodies :wink:

I can pretty much walk to A&J from my house. Unfortunately that is NOT good for the pocketbook :?

I would really like to get a set as well. I've heard similar reviews to Bbasso about the front end feeling tighter and more planted.

But which one to get: Z10, Full-Race, L-Con...............

I rock a 320mm and yes, you're right, it is a bit intrusive. However the driving feel is much better IMO. I have to move my Defi's from the cluster to the dash though. I can position the wheel so I can see the critical elements of the tach and speedo, which is nice. I had a 350mm before and I enjoy ...

Icebox is a nice piece. Good choice. I think Rob has covered the H/E subject quite well. I run Teins and I feel they are too bouncy. The dampers aren't enough for the springs. Others run Tein and are happy so it's an opinion. Your cars' usage will dictate what suspension is best suited. Don't rush i...

I have been thinking about switching to synthetic. Heard the possibility of better gas mileage and less wear on the internals. Not too sure about the second statement.

Anyone experience less oil burning after switching to syn? That would be my main motivation to make the jump.

I have a 320mm Momo Monte Carlo wheel and I love it. If you like small, grippy and thick, this is the whel for you. As for a I/H/E set-up, I run the J's intake to a Toda header through a T1R testpipe and T1R 2.5inch catback. Great sound and performance. A little loud though. I would recommend it. Dr...

Sup y'all. I figured since I'll be at Expo 5 that I might as well join the party online here. I've had my '99 R since Oct 2003 and what a journey it has been. Basically it's a street machine with plans of tracking it this spring. I'll be co-piloting with my friend to Expo to join in on the fun and f...
