Well I went with the HRE P43SC wheels in Satin Black. 19x9.5 & 19x11. HRE is going to select the offsets to make sure they clear my StopTechs. Looking to run a 255/30-19 & 305/30-19 tire. Any suggestions? Leaning toward the Michelin Pilot Super Sports.

Looks like I will be able to stuff a 265/30 & 305/30-19 into my Z's wheel wells. Here is an owner with same wheel sizes running a 275/30 & 305/30; MY350Z.COM Forums - View Single Post - Official Aggressive Wheels & Fat Tires Thread

Also through more research I'm gonna go with the Toyo R888 tires.

Waiting 3in exhaust from FI, I hope it gets here this coming week. I'm also thinking on not upgrading to the GTX series turbos and keep the GTRS. Use the money on a LSD instead.

What LSD? Smart move in my opinion. I went with the Quiafe. Had one in my Evo 8 and slapping myself for not doing it sooner on my Z.

Thinking about the Quaife as well or the OSGiken.

I went with the Quiafe cause I've used them before. Haven't done really any research on the OSGilken but have heard good reports. The Quiafe is more towards a street/road course gearhead.

Just got off the phone with PowerFab. Said everything but the HalTech box has arrived. The Tein Comfort Sports are on back order but doesn't look like there will be a problem receiving them on time. The HRE order is going in today. Should hear something back on the offsets soon. The manifolds, turbine housings and, downpipes are back from PolyDyn. Waiting on pictures. The I/C does have some cast parts on it so we're waiting to see what PolyDyn's coating looks like before we send it for coating. The engine is at the machine shop so once PowerFab receives that back, game on! That's it for now.

Polydine is cool, it should come out well but I'd wrap as much as possible too! When do you think you'll be getting it back? We can all take a cruze around town....... down to Gtown and back, help break her in!
