Very nice! My favorite part was the "mic mounted in engine bay" segment. Sounds absolutely sinister!

holy **** dude, sounds so mean. the setup seems to be very responsive and pulls hard! if youre going to z days i have to get a ride along in the car. im seriously considering boosting mine lol funds are almost there

What exhaust are you running Dan?

Mr.Squeeze · 04-28-2014, 06:23 PM

Nice sounds good

FireDan50 · 04-28-2014, 06:26 PM

The rear portion is the Greddy Turbo Ti-C...but the front portion had to be modified to "Y" connect to the single turbo downpipe. You can kind of see what I'm talking about the "front portion" in this pic:

MidnightBlueZ · 04-28-2014, 06:57 PM

Right I am running the kit as well, sorry I should've been more specific lol. Yeah I meant the back section that connects to the down pipe/mid VSR provides. You running the single TiC from a 350z? Any pics?

FireDan50 · 04-28-2014, 08:20 PM

Im running the standard dual Greddy Turbo Ti-C rear portion so it looks the same.....only modified the front to keep it

MidnightBlueZ · 04-29-2014, 08:22 AM

Gotcha, yeah I'm throwing around ideas.. I'm looking at going with a Tomei single setup from the 350z. My downpipe goes into my factory mid pipe at the moment so it's a single flange.

FireDan50 · 08-14-2014, 10:11 AM

So I've had this set of Enkei RPF1s collecting dust while I saved up for tires. I finally got some Nitto tires and mounted them...just finished the front...might do the rears tomorrow. I took the time to raise the coilovers just a little bit because I was tired of scraping.

So the old set up was Volk GTS 19x9.5 and Michelin Pilot Super Sports 255/35/19 (54 pounds). New set up is Enkei RPF1 18x9.5 and Nitto NT555 275/40/18 (49 pounds).

I'll have more pics up as soon as i get the rear suspension raised, and wheels/tires mounted.

sick stuff... one can dream lol

FireDan50 · 08-15-2014, 06:24 AM

Okay so I got the rear tires; mounted and weighed them to compare against my old set up:

Old: Volk GTS 19x10.5 + Hankook Ventus RS3 305/35/19 = 59lbs
New: Enkei RPF1 18x10.5 + Nitto NT555 DR 305/35/18 = 50lbs

I think thats a nice weight reduction in rotating mass. Here's what it looks like now:

Nice! That looks awesome!
