    Warped Vents

    Sorry Chip. I had your set, but I was late seeing this, so.......... Kidding. I know the small gap you are talking abot. In fact, we actually discussed it today. Unfortunately, there is not a good fix. The actual fins are slightly thicker than stock so we could get the aluminum to flow...

    Warped Vents

    To not be a direct copy. I think we only added one, and of course that is the difference you see. The vents are a realtively small need (group size) and I am doing it just to be doing it (I need two sets myself). I am a one man show on this, and didn't want to get into issues of copyright...

    Warped Vents

    Here. Of course the left is the unfinished amuminum. The right is an unpainted plastic. You can see we added a couple of fins. Side by side you see it, alone it looks stock. Going to the mold maker tomorrow to see if stud platforms need to be changed, or if we are set as is. We are close.

    Warped Vents

    Well, almost 90 days later from taking the aluminum vent to the maching shop. Remind me why I hate depending with other people................... Here is the update. FINALLY got the second prototype back. The vent fits good on the car. The mounting stud alignment needs to be tweaked, so as...

    ? for thos having taken their daughters

    My daughters and son (16, 14, 11) have been at two rallys and other events. I had doubts before Detroit. None anymore. They have had a blast, loved every minute, and have cherished memories. Bring her - neither of you will regret it. These things only happen once. Plus between Charley and...

    Forget all other tire options - these just made my day.

    I replaced the standard tires with the Bridgestones RE 050A and RE 050A Scuderia. Rims also changed from the optional to the standard. Just for comparison Stock: 235/45/ZR18 88 Y - wheel and tire 45.2 pounds - 26.33 diameter / 9.3 wide Stock: 315/40/ZR19 103Y - wheel and tire 56.0 pounds -...

    Forget all other tire options - these just made my day.

    Look at my post number 72 They are the tires on the standard factory wheels. I like them a lot. The little wider than the rims has a nice look - makes them seem a little more of a monster tire than with the true straight sidewalls. You can buy them through Discount. I paid $1386.00 with no...

    Warped Vents

    Just to keep you all posted. we are still going. Took the next prototype to the machine shop so they could set up their jig for the final machining. Well, a "big" customer needed something done, so I got pushed down in priority. Obviously I am not a big customer to them - got I hate needing...

    Thanks. Yes, rubber stems. Just left off the BBS covering cap. At the moment I am also leaving it like that - rubber stem also seems more "appropriate". The setup looks better in person. The standard wheels have the same contours as the optional - just the spokes are different. When the...

    Front and rear added about 1 inch in width, so shouldn't really be any different than stock.

    Have only been on for a day. Did notice they also broke loose in first gear ( :biggrin ) - but I do have a pulley and tune. It will be a while for a track day again, so won't know anything for a while. Fit appears good as has been said. Not close for either front or rear, but may be...
