Haha. I knew there had to be a low offset fan on here. BBS RS oldskool just look sick. Im so torn on what set I want. I like the GT3s, but I wish they were available in a lower offset than +40. And Ive always had a sweet spot for the BBS Meshies.

Decided to just refinish my Circuit 8s and roll on some steelies for a while since winter is almost here and just buy some new wheels in the spring. I'm doing the C8s in bronze with a polished lip. Also looking for a CTR wing too. I know some people are going to say they are a little big, but I think they look like sex, they even out the EK rear end.

I think i've seen a few CTR wings (along with a bunch of other rare stuff) in this thread. You'll want to skip towards the more recent pages, it's a massive thread.

I check that one pretty often. If I can't find a reasonable price I will settle for a knock off. Found a local guy today though that will powder coat my wheels for $200. Might do it.

I ordered a chipped ecu from Phearable.net a couple days ago, should be here soon. I wasn't to happy with the tune that was currently on a chip from the last owner.

I started having some idle surging this week too. Found that the FITV was leaking a slight bit off coolant as well. So I popped it off and cleaned and resealed it up.

One of the screws was stripped and couldn't be removed. So I just threw some Copper RTV on it and its holding just fine. My idle is now back to normal.

Kinda dark, but I've been working on a mild tuck and its going pretty good.
