Damn BALLER!!

It looks really good after the detail! And I love the OEM TT wheels! I prefer OEM wheels over aftermarket now!!

All those badass tranny sounds like that, loud and sounds like there's marbles in the tranny..........my R34 was like that brand new, the E9X M3 tranny sounds like that too, it is normal

I want a ride! Let's meet up over the Christmas holiday

You are making me all jealous now, I need to start modding my SC430 soon

That sounds like a plan Jeff. You still planning on buying that R35 GTR soon?

Not likely getting a 35 anymore, my desire for one is fading as times goes by.....my preference is changing, I don't need a whole lot of speed anymore. I want more refinement, class, sounds, styling and quality of material more now a days, I have been spoiled by Lexus's refinement and quality of material, the R35 GTR looks and feels cheap to me now......so I don't think I want one anymore. I am very content with my LS/SC combo

I'll give you a call over the holiday to meet up, your SC sounds interesting!

I'm not sure as I haven't dynoed it yet. I'm guessing in the realm of 340 - 350 rwhp at 15 psi of boost. I have a RMM dp with straight thru 3" exhaust with no cats, hks cone filter and a standalone haltech so it's bpu+? My tuner set it to run 10.5 AFRs in WOT though to be safe for now. Can anyone chime in of what I should be putting down?
