^ RE30's?

Yes, with Pilot Super Sports.

PSS's are freaking uber.

I live in S.Florida...

Some Kuhmo ES100's left me upset...the internut preached these tires up.

Moved on to GY: GS-D3's.

Then Asymmetrics a few times.

Then PS2, IMHO Asymmetrics were way better in the rain and as a result all around.

And then PSS was born! HOLY MOLY!

Great grip, Low noise, excellent in the rain.

Can't say I have tracked yet with them, but outside that they have delivered.

For the car I just got, it would have to be the exhaust.

American Racing headers w/y-pipe (no cats) - $1200
Borla Adjustable Cat-back - $850

hotness...

i just sold my Seibon Edition TE37's and replaced them with bronze TE37's this time around :biggrin:

*EDIT* - i sold the Seibons for just as much as i paid for the bronze ones, so these wheels really didn't cost me anything. however, the Seibon Edition TE37's were definitely one of my most expensive modifications...i posted a picture of the Seibons on page 1 - i'll post up pictures of the bronze wheels when i get a chance...here's a teaser shot in the mean time:

Gotta love TE37s. I considered those but they look better on coupes/smaller cars.

I would have to say my coilovers, KW v3's. Track aligned and corner balanced

KW v3 are next for me. How do you like them?

 

[djnsmith7]

1KRR: Akro slip-on: $600

I haven't had a chance to push them as hard as I would like because I had tire rubbing issues on very hard turns. I have since rolled my fenders and will be heading to the track again this weekend

But just some mild testing in the canyons this weekend I was very happy. On long sweepers, they held out beautifully and absorbed little bumps really well. I am running 245 40 r17 rs3's in the front and 255 40 r17 yokohama advan ad08's in the rear.

I am amazed at how little roll the s2000 with coilovers has, its a great feeling and confidence inspiring.

Just my Pioneer Avic X930BT.
I wish I had more spare $ to put into a fun car, but I commute with my car and I'm not touching it at all as far as mods. Has to be good on fuel. I need a new job so I can lose my commute.....

Nice. Love the PSS10s on my G35.. but removing them soon as I'm getting rid of the car. :\

 

[Zargon]

I could never get myself to spend on pazzos on any of my bikes; damn that expensive machined billet hotness.

having had Pazzo's, and seen CRG's, I will get CRG's next. they are actually nicer


mine would be the arrow cans.....1100 or so

 

[Mongrelchops]

OMG SOO MUCH WANT


In fact :-

Get those bronze TE37s on and send me a full res pic lol

 

[Sunny129]

i already have the bronze TE37's installed...hopefully i can drop her off at my wheel & tire guy's place tomorrow to get new tires mounted, as well as have some more fender and suspension work done to keep them from rubbing. i hope to have pics in a week or so...

Carbon fiber Body ($2000) and termignoni pipes and ECU ($1800) was about the same.





Also bought a brand new motor from Porsche in a crate for My boxster, That was $10,000.

I no longer own the car sold it a few years back.

 

[sdifox]

rims count? OZ Ultraleggera

 

[Railgun]

On the bike? Its rider. In the car? Its driver.

[jteef]

on the M3 it's prolly the ltw flywheel.

on the 1M my only mods are a valentine 1 and tint; seems like all the aftermarket exhausts for this car are outrageously priced. akrapovic is around $7000

 

[Sunny129]

ok, so i went from this:

...to this:

 

[Zargon]

rice!


very hot

 

[BoberFett]

Probably the Mustang saddle including passenger seat with driver and passenger backrests was around $400 and the Hard Krome 3" Big Straights exhaust which was almost $500.
