same size, and yes they are cheapys's, but i think they look sweet when you see them and they are about a pound ea less then stock. i was looking at rota torques which were a bit pricier however i really wanted the black w/ chrome lip.

PS. Pony up and pay for the ins on your car :P

quazmosis's car looks to be in great condition and I believe it is. I would think about reconsidering your first year decision. There are alot of great looking 8's that are 04's. His is a great looking car with super low miles at an affordable price, however it isn't the MT that you are looking for.



Good luck bro.

saw this post bunique, you sold it? to a local or elsewhere?

i believe k and n is acctually worse then stock... however im pretty sure its negligable (sp?) i think they made a version 2 that is ok but ver 1 was iffy. your prob better off with stock unless you like the sound of k and n better lol.

btw i think there is another vr rx8 in dickinson its been parked in the mall parking lot with dealer plates the last 2 nights
