- Volk GT-U Wheels - (front)17x9 +9 wrapped in 235/40/17 - (rear)18x10+13 wrapped in 265/35/18 I think I may get bigger tires up front, not a big fan of these nexens, just nobody had the sizes of tires i needed when I was going to get tires. |

Jack is actually at City Tire?
You know, I'm literally a block away from them. You could have called and asked me to join in the pointing and laughing of Jack and his fattyness. |

Coincidentally, I stopped by there after seeing this thread (and your pics).
Jack said he did not give expressed written consent for the use of his image/likeness, which is his personal trademark. Any monetary proceeds his likeness generates for you (meaning any money you get after posting this thread) is owed, in full, to him. Actually, he was like, "oh he took pics? And posted em that fast? And I'm in em?? I didn't tell him to take pictures of me." lolz.

I'll go home and throw them on my non running 3 tone colored car for the gay? no i'll wait until the formula lug nuts come in and the volk low disk center caps.
Volk doesn't have the low caps in stock and I don't want to wait for them so I just paid for someone to ship them to me off of ebay who had them =( vexmotorsports ebay auction has the formula lug nuts for 265 buy it now, doesn't include shipping. Dunno about that bullshit ass price since sr20store/optionimport has them for 220. Dunno why everyone including our vendors are pumping them out for 250 and 260+ =( and they have the black one's in stock (vex) which nobody even has listed, which makes me an angry wayne.. RAAAAWR! ANGRY!!! |

Tip of the day... de-pinning the grey orange connectors... they have an orange retainer clip that holds the pin on one side, this needs to be lifted, while it's lifted you take your micro flat head or (safety pin) and the retainer flap should be right at the opening, just like shoveling.
ease it in, lift, pull wire, bam it takes a few tries but once you get it down it's butta! grouping the wires really tight and binding it in sections where it should wrap through the engine. This sequence of wires should all slide through the intake manifold for the tps sensor, and whatever was next to it again (lol it's late) and the cam angle sensor plug that goes across the front of the engine. I wanted to mount it around the hot side of the engine but it was too much work and really nowhere to hide it. =( another angle. just visually feeling it out. another angle... the whole harness is pretty much single snake sections like this... the fucking ground wires are getting on my last nerves though since I cant really "de-pin" them and they're all jointed so it's like unbraiding hair maneuvering wires through them. After I finish this up I'll do a final test fit and pull the excess through back into the engine bay by the firewall. I'll then take measurements to share in case anyone else is crazy enough to do this in the future. Then I work on the inside, labeling every wire, numbering it and then de-pinning them from each plug that they go to and untangling them, shortening as necessary and then re-pinning them. In the meantime I need to take measurements for my battery set up and also test to make sure this all works. Once that is said and done I will begin the fuse box relocation. For now it can stay in the engine bay. Since I need to get started on the body work, I wont have time to take on the electrical projects so at least I'll have time to plan it out. |

waiting for my 2 piece lugnuts to arrive, I don't want to put my old lug nuts in the barrels... Nor do I want to deal with wrapping my tools with something to protect the mags.
Patience guys! lol |
