HAHAHA OMG! DUDE IM 26 AND I STILL GET ID FOR BEER BUT YEA 30 IS THE NEW 20

 

LOL...i was in US on holiday when i was 28.....

went to the counter at a shop to buy a pack of ciggies...and the old lady just stared at me...haahhahahaa....

was in a strip club in london when i was 31..was talking to a stripper and her jaw dropped when i told her my age....she thought i was 19!!! hahahhahaha


oooooowwwhhhhh yyyeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhh......heh heh heh

 

lol wtf 31 to 19 is a biiiig difference hahaha im 20 but people say i look 17 haha

 

yeah well...us asians (who live in asia, dunno about asians in western countries though) have the advantage of looking younger than we actually are to westerners

complimentary....yet annoying at the same time...hahahhaha

 

hahaha

 

btw....has anyone here tried upgrading their brakes by using brakes from other makes?

i know of an EG hatch in Singapore running on EVO3 brakes and a friend of mine is running off a Nissan 4pot caliper with bb1 rotors...

 

Are those the black regas refinished? Came out awesome!

Not feeling the coloured in tire letters along with the lip stickers, imo theres too much going on lol

 

AHVTEC, I think out of all your wheels, I honestly think I like the RNR's the best. I love the CE's too, but the Mugen's are classic


Oh, I just turned 25.. I'm getting old. At least I can rent a car for $10 cheaper now lol

 

The problem your having is you have a bad sized tire, I used to have the same size regas and had some 205/40 tires and they made the wheels look huge, get yourself some 225/45 on your 8in wide wheel and look like a boss

I wish I had a 8 in wide 16 in wheel

 

wow some clean pics..
side now I will be 32 this year and bought my first EG when i was 19 and still have it bought 2 more EG's one for my dad and one for a Daily like 8 years ago and just sold it 2 weeks ago. man i need to get some pics up my first EG just sits in the garage havn't drove it in like 4 years, going to do a full restore on it starting this summer, wife, baby and house take priority though.

I am partial to Mugen M7 on EGs

 

I like m7, mf10 and the mf10l, tell, ce28, sw388/regas, rpf1

Happy I'm not the oldest or youngest lol. Middle child syndrome.

 

Agree with everything you said there. My point was that there are other tires in that same category that are better like IMO the Star Specs or XS. Re11s don't even cost $200 in that size, more like 175. I agree with them being affordable bc re11s are just mad money and the star specs or XS have similar performance for much less.


The Ks are that much better? Wrd, Id like to see someone write a nice unbiased review on them. Too many sponsored fellas lol. Anyways, I'm surprised the star specs didnt satisfy you? Btw how long did your friends 615Ks last? I remember the regulars would get around 10k.

Nah not at all, the 16s look really good on there. I think your tires are just a little bit too stretched but looks good nonetheless. 16s work good if you have the right height and fitment.

Edd China on NWP is selling a set that size shipped for $850. Pretty chep, maybe you should buy it and take one, part out the rest? I forget his sn on here. It was something Si. The with a black EG that's had a bunch of wheels lol from Florida.

Agree but his aren't 40 if you're under that impression. They are 195/45/16 and actual spec is 198.12mm. If he went with a 205/45/16 those would be 213.3mm. That's 15.18mm bigger and would fit much nicer IMO.

Btw have you seen the tire selection for 16x8? I sucks lol.

 

My Friend 6Spd_EJ6 had the K's for a good while, not sure how many miles, but he abused them everywhere he went. Spun the tires every single time he drove the car lol, he ended up selling the wheels though.

I like the StarSpecs but I have them already and my girl friends tires wore a little too quickly, yes the alignment was in spec.... and same with them on my friends evo, just wore a bit too quick... Id still get them though because i dont drive my car enough for me to worry about them wearing prematurely... I had a friend that used to work with me that auto crosses on the star specs and he's had great success with them and they have seemed to last him a while... Just have always liked the look of the Azenis and now that they can withstand some abuse and not die out in 5K lol im gonna try them out i think.

 

Good deal go for it let us know what's up!

 

I just saw someone post this on Facebook about a friend's newborn daughter.

"Congratulations, I would love to meat your new addition..."

When proper spelling is key......

 

HAHAHA wow

 

LOL

 

Damn...kick in the nuts for sure...

It's cool though. It also explains why I have more toys...but less time to use them.

I was just kidding...

 

its all fun and games until someone gets hurt

 

i don't know anyone personally who is running the newer 615K but i have read that they are much better in terms of grip compared to the previous 615's.

i've ran the 615's before and they are good for some auto-x as they warm up pretty fast, but they get greasy very fast as well. i wouldn't trust my life on the 615's for a road course though. once they get greasy, they get pretty scary.

they also sucked in the rain but i think that's the design of the tread block and not the compound.

honestly though, i'm sure the 615K will be great for a street tire as it's grippy and stiff (and it looks pretty good for the hard parking ), and they're usually well priced for our sizing.

i might buy some RE11's next as i was quite impressed by the original RE-01R's that i had (didn't really get too greasy on a road course). the Starspecs are also great on the track as well and they're pretty cheap when they're on sale.

i'll let you know how my R888's are once i hit the track with them. right now, they're pretty loud on street, but then again, they're pretty much an R-comp anyways

you guys make me feel old as i'll be 33 this year

 

I love my RE-11's and R888's.

PS: I'll be 34 on the 13th of May. I'm up there with you in the old guy department MashedPotatoes.

 

Congrats on being a new father! and *high 5 for your wife being nearly a DECADE younger* hahahha

yah man, we're some of the oldest farts on this EG thread

haha, as stated earlier, thank goodness i'm asian so i've been told that i look like i'm 26-28 still, and i have a ****-ton of hair on my head (both of them).

 

Ewwww lol R888's are badass tires never used them for autox just for a lil weekend drag racing i guess lol once they get warm u can feel the difference.

 

RE-11s are $728 without shipping and R888s have no good sizes in 16s....


My Azenis RT-615s are toast after almost 4 years, imagine that.... What do you guys think about RE-760s, Dunlop Direzza DZ101, or BFG G-Force Sport Comp-2?

I need a decently sticky tire under $550 shipped in a 205-45-16 and those are the tires that keep coming up as the best bang for my buck.
