Without some kind of custom hood scoop you're never going to get enough air though the top mount IC. A FMIC is almost required. As was already mentioned, a water to air IC will work but is much more...

I went to the one in Dallas. Only one 6th gen, mostly stock...erebuni kit, seats, shortram. It was really clean, but not all that cool. Its worthwhile just going to see the girls.

You're not gonna just be able to go buy one, you'll have to have it made. Find some racecar shops in your area that also work on street cars.

Butterfly? You just made that up didn't you Kuya?
Don't ever call it 'butterfly' within 500ft of a race track or you risk getting laughed at. Its called camber to the rest of us.

Camber alone doesn't wear tires very fast. I've been running 2deg of neg camber for 2 years on the street and its no big deal. Toe settings become more critical when running a lot of negative camber...

I've heard people say that they fit, but I've never talked to anybody that actually tried it. Why don't you try it and let us know.

First of all, it is totally possible to weld parts of a car together and still be able to align it. All that laser welding is a bunch of ****, I've never even heard of anybody doing that. If I can m...

I'm just guessing here but I bet the GT and ST calipers are the same. The caliper hangars will be different due to the different size rotors. If you're doing the rear swap anyway tho, it might be ea...

Keep in mind that the factory speedo is WAY off. Mines off by almost 6%. When its reading 133 I'm really only doing 125. GPS is about the only way to get an accurate reading.

I managed to remove the limiter for free. All you have to do is cut the speed signal just before the ecu. The only downside is it triggers a CEL.
