hey rvalero i was actually doing some reaserch upon fidanzza flywheel and I came to the conclusion that I will be sacrificing torque for this flywheel. so I spoke to some gurus here at ottawa clutch and he recomended that he make me a stage 2 clutch. I just found out that there is a guy here that makes custom BULLY clutches. He told me to bring in my flywheel and he going to machine it and straiten it out. This set up is also a lot cheeper because I dont need to spend on flywheel. the clutch and kit for it is going to run me $700.00 cdn. have you installed your new clutch & flywheel yet? And I am thinking of doing the work myself!

The guy who is doing the install had an accident, and was out for about a month. Right now he is really busy. As soon as he gets some time, he'll get me in. I also just ordered FIGS rear control arms. I should be getting them in a few weeks. Good luck with your install!

I had a mini photo shoot with Strike's car at UCSD. I was practicing my low light shots. If you have suggestions and/or constructive criticism, I'd like to hear what you have to say.
One thing that really annoyed me was the glare/ghost (the 2nd pic in particular). I guess I could shorten the exposure time, and adjust the F stop accordingly, but I wanted to keep the background in focus (AV mode). I'm still learning, so go easy on me LOL.

Thanks. Strike has 19" VS-XX, and mine are 18". The only other exterior mod I want to do is a headlight retrofit. Black chrome w/ AP1 or E55 low beam projector. I haven't done much research on the subject, but I'd like to get it done some day.
Keep your eye on this thread for black chrome plating http://my.is/forums/f201/headlight-a...atings-407333/.
The process hasn't been perfected yet, but here's an example with Ti plating.

I guess I haven't updated this in a while, so here goes.
Tuned Parts Rigid Bars:
Karl-Sport short shifter (Think B&M but almost no whine):
Momo RaceAir Leather shift **** and shifter boot:
Swapped out my N1 for an L-Tuned exhaust:
Before
After
Custom Armrest:
Figs adjustable Mega Arms, endlinks, and toe links:
Sport Design head & fog lights, smoked side markers, DIY black pearl emblems, and spoiler brake light red-out:
Front-mounted camera:
Repainted brake calipers and rotor hats:
Figs hood props with LS struts and Figs battery tie down:
Painted engine bay covers and Figs clutch dampener delete:
...and I think that pretty much takes us to the present.

How is your BO so clean! If/when you see my paint, it is in the complete opposite condition. I don't know how to do all of the detailing that I need to keep my paint looking like yours. You wouldn't want to detail mine by any chance would you? Looking good by the way!
