Sense Ive been wanting to do a engine bay wire tuck for some time now, I decided to give it a go. After seeing Gerry doing his wire tuck and said F it, time to knock it out. I didn't have much else to do anyway sense I'm going to wait to do the finishing touches on the exhaust this weekend during the day.
Ran out of wire and solder so ill have to finish this weekend as well. Passenger side seems to be hardest side.
And got a questions for some you folks. Whats the best longest lasting tire with good traction in the 315 295 size? Been looking at the r888s but i think they only last for so long. I cant seem to around paying 1300 for tires that will only last about 5k miles. Other option i was looking at nt05s but they don't have the 40 side wall in 315s that I'm looking for, for the 17s. What are all yours thoughts?

Nitto 555 that are not drag radials.. lasts a lot longer .. maybe 20k but they spin bad on 1st / 2nd gear above that 500rwhp.

Got a few more thing done over the weekend.
wire tuck done.
cut the exhaust tips.
installed the catch can.
I had a box of factory wire from my other car so I was able to extend those plugs for the wire tuck and have all the wires color matched. made things 10x easier and faster.
Catch can Polishers always do a great job!
Exhaust tips. The ends where cut at a 7 degree down slope.
And some engine bay shots.
