Good luck with the build!
|
I thoroughly enjoy a awesome build. I plan on keeping it simple since the car is already sexy as hell.
|
ordered a suede w/ red stitching shift boot and NRG carbon fiber shift knob.

BHR mid-pipe will be ordered Thursday.
|
I am going to be adding some after market gauges. I am going to use the RB gauge pod. I am going to be running a oil pressure, water temperature and AF ratio gauge. Is there anything extra I need to get? I am going to be running full sweep electric gauges.
|
Get the lotek pod instead the RB pod IMO is not that good. Both quality and functionally.
|
EDIT:
I cannot go that route due to my GPS screen. |
Even better do the tablet to OBD gauge conversion.
|
link?
|
One of these are good starting points.

Those are very good starting points. Thanks.
|
Now I am debating between GOODbox and going analog gauges. Really do not want to go with the tablet option.
Anyone have an opinion on GOODbox? |
IMO prosport EVO gauges are one of the best to get, I'm swapping my glowshift out for them this winter. Never again will I get analog with stepper motors. So much noise.
|
I was thinking full sweep electric by Autometer. I had a set in my Ranger and loved them.
EDIT: I like those. Digital and descently priced. |
|
oh boy .. be ready to put on the flame suit..
many on this forum hate xxrs ... |

What offset are you running? I am really thinking about getting the gold or bronze.
|
18x9.75 +20 with 245/40 all around.
|
Do you have any rubbing on the front tires? I already have that size tires and they are basically new.
|
Rolled my fenders beforehand and not having any problems.
|
That makes sense. Thanks for the info.
EDIT: Are you still on your stock suspension? |
Lowered on springs. You will need at least that much or more aggressive fitting wheels look really weird.
|
I think I am going with 18x9 +30.
