Sometimes the test (ART) pipes do have a harsh smell, but I like it. Nothing crazy. I've been told that people can smell them from behind when I'm WOT. At idle when standing behind the car, you can smell them just a little. I've never had the smell in the car , even with the windows down sitting at a stop light.

Oh, and no CEL's with the ART pipes for me.

Hey bro love your car and as others have said your Z is an inspiration for my MB as well. I noticed you said that when you had the 9.5 +20 up front with the 5mm spacer, effectively making it a +15, you had a bit of rubbing. I was a kinda skeptical but I just pulled the trigger on a 19x9.5 +15. I'm also planning on running the stock rubber but I'm dropped on s-tech springs which sit a bit higher than your swifts, so I'm hoping I'll be ok even though I might get less negative camber than you. Anyway, when you said you rubbed the liner a bit was that only during hard cornering or did it rub heavy regularly?

Boost_lee · 03-20-2012, 12:11 AM

thanks

Its just the plastic liner on big bumps/dips in the road. The upper tab might require some bending, but it will be fine.

silviakid02 · 03-20-2012, 01:19 AM

Awesome thanks bro.

I'm at 25K on the stock Nismo yokohamas. But they are almost done and I will need new tires this summer.

simota1 · 04-03-2012, 01:32 PM

god dang man!!!! my tires in front are bridgestones... and the guy said he had 11k and they look like they are gonna explode from how bald they are hahahahah i really needa change them soon....

ZForce · 04-04-2012, 12:45 AM

Nice sounding exhaust. On my wish list. RE-11 are great mine started going 12k sticky as fly paperbut do not expect to get anywhere near 23k.

Boost_lee · 04-05-2012, 01:51 AM

that helps. We'll see how the hankooks feel first.

How are you liking those new tires?

MacLean · 04-16-2012, 11:28 PM

The exhaust sounds really nice. I definitely like the sound.

I don't know if it was the tires or the suspension, but my car felt really loose out back this weekend. I probably need to soften up the rear. I put on new coils along with the tires, so its hard to pinpoint.
