Today went and ordered some new feet. MF10's! I can't hardly wait for them to arrive, about 3 weeks from now. Best of both worlds with them, great looks (subjective of course) and about 2kg lighter than the stockies and also gain an inch in width. Pics will definitely be taken once on. Another thing, the shop that I ordered from fills the tires with Nitrogen versus normal air, that will shave a smidgen more weight as well.

Next up on the list of items, suspension, but that won't be for a while, all the ones I am looking at are over $3500, ouch I know, but I only want the best on the R.

It's loud, but it sounds nice. What exhaust setup are you running? It looks quite nice too

Sounds like multiple cars are coming, actually. Weird. Say, I'm pretty certain you could add at least 15 mph to that curve, dude! Get some spotters and TAKE THAT ****!

Most definitely, I could add alot more speed. In the second portion I was in 3rd at about 120km/h (75mph) braked and rev-matched into 2nd going about 85(52). That turn is easily about a 75mph one if hitting the apex right. Believe me I have done it before, usually at night when that road is even more deserted. That road is like a 6 mile run, but a couple sections are tight, like real tight with no run-off whatsoever, just enough room to fit through with about a 6 inch curb on the driver's side and shrubbery on the passenger side. Real adrenalin rush.

The exhaust is an Amuse R1 Titan without a pre-silencer before the canister.

So, no resonator huh? How are the authorities over there? I assume that exhausts & stuff really don't matter to them at all? It seems like all of the cars I see from over there are almost race cars & they are driven on the streets with no one caring. That doesn't fly here.

Thanks guys. I do love the sound of the car. It is even more raw in person. Video just can not capture the true sound. It is pretty intense!

That's a lot faster than I thought you were going. Why does everything seem slower in videos? It seemed like you were going 35 mph =P Not that I'm doubting you or anything, I recorded myself doing a 0-60 and 0-80 run and it seemed like I was barely moving
