15s coming soon la.. most prolly this weekend. now wondering whether should get better tires or what.. i thought of using goodyear NCT5 since cheap and not too bad. and other recommendations? not too expensive ones and balanced in terms of handling, noise, and also durability.

how much is the difference between B16a manual and auto? the last i checked for b16a manual half cut is around 5 - 5.5k, then u have to plus the workmanship and everything. the sum will definitely come up to 8k... so expensive.. my plan is to save money and one shot b18cr..hahahahahahahahahahahaha.... but wait la.. dunno how long

reon nice ride, but the ride so low? how's the clearance? mine is like 1 inch from tire to fender... go faster a bit already kena .... i've already got a fiber duckbill spoiler, planning to diy the spray... Added on August 13, 2007, 6:54 pmQUOTE(soulfly @ Aug 13 2007, 11:07 AM) Yup, technically aluminium don't rust. But also remember other parts such as water pump, thermostate, etc. They may go rust. And certain coolant may cause clogging after some time if you don't flush the radiator after a period of time. i think not only this is the function of alu radiator, but it suppose to have better cooling effect? correct me if i am wrong?

wah, B16... dunno when i can lay my hands on it... any idea how much would it costs for the EG6 conversion? i checked a lot would cost around RM7K++(labour + half cut). dunno by the time i got money still got or not. moon, why not DIY spray the engine cover? spoon yellow would look awesome. or just B16B colour oso ok...

QUOTE(moon* @ Aug 21 2007, 10:05 AM) 1 inch is 2.3cm. my finger is 1.5cm. my clearance from tire to fender is only 1.5cm  erm, just double checked, i thought my finger big, but my finger cannot put in the gap between the tire and fender straight. must go in at a lower angle.. check with ruler roughly about 1.2-1.3cm only...

shouldn't be i guess, bcoz so far so good. anyhow, i've already managed to find ways to park my car in my porch, gonna cement the porch so that the angle of the slope would be less... lets hope.. that i can clear after that.
