legal height is 100mm or 10cm i'm quite sure. There's not a lot you can do to gain power without "being obvious", do CAI, headers, exhaust. Just don't drive like a tosser and draw attention to yourself.
I know a lot of guys on V35 Coupe drivers fb page that run HKS reps with and without the Magnaflow X Pipe, every person i talk to that has the Magnaflow says it makes a massive difference to the drone and sounds very clear. I would definintely recommend the Magnaflow X Pipe.
I would rather spend extra money doing a full setup that would properly handle appropriate boost and gain maximum power than throwing a turbo/supercharger on my stock engine apart from CAI..
There's a big stretch of road on the way to my house that has an 80km speed limit, and the cops usually sit in a car half way up the road with the radar but everyone still speeds. I think it's hilarious when i get people in falconwhores and shit trying to race me then they speed off because i won't take the bait and get booked.
But no, i wouldn't report it
The main thing is though that shipping for those rims should be much higher than $80 and the picture isn't a real time personal pic it's off Google.. That's why i think it's dodgy.
Predicting the market in the future once the V36's have properly launched and begun selling is so hard to tell. People will tell you they will appreciate and people will tell you they will depreciate (V35).
If Infiniti have a hard time selling them at around the 100k mark as it appears that's what they're going to start at, they will reduce the prices. I still think you'd be crazy to jump in and buy one the second they are launched. It's like with game consoles, you don't buy one the day they launch instead you wait a few months. At least that's what i would do..
But yeah at the moment it's difficult to tell.
Speaking of racing.. i was just coming home (slade point) and i had a black SS ute (2008+) come up beside me and accelerate then slow down egging me to race him.. the f**k is he thinking with a V8 trying to race me in my NA on my p's.. he had some chick in the front seat probably trying to impress her. I just stayed at 80 being the law abiding citizen that i am.. and the fact that the cops were just behind us at the forgan bridge, then he gunned it up the road after trying for a couple of minutes. Sure if it was a normal commodore i might have raced him, but what's the point with a NEW V8...
Also getting really tired with Palmyra drags, every time i go it's just commodore's and xr6's. No variety at all unless it's a 1000hp machine that you stand absolutely no chance against obviously..
HAHAHA, yes i have seen those a lot too. I swear some of these bogans have no imagination when it comes to shit to do with their car so they all copy eachother.
Drive a mechanically sound vehicle until you are on your opens or close to your opens. My first car was this- (not exact but same model)
Now i'm nearly off my green P's driving a 206KW 350GT like this..
Point of this is basically- No one at high school is going to give a shit what sort of car you drive, all it's going to do is bring you unwanted attention and cost you LOADS of money to mod/maintain/insure/register...
Think before you sign the dotted line.
You mean like those generic black rims with the silver outline around each spoke that every 2nd commodore owner has on their car? I would be ashamed if i had those on my Z!
Nah man i was driving into city heart in the left lane and i saw you coming up behind me in the right lane (i read your number plate backwards lolz) and put my arm out the window and waved as you went past. VROOOOOOOOM
