I love your shift lights. Do they ever get annoying for daily driving?

[QUOTE=Kremer930;838074]I love your shift lights. Do they ever get annoying for daily driving?[/QUOTE]

I wouldnt know. I dont daily drive....

But the shift light is fully customizeable. I have its first light start at around 3k or 3.5k rpm, so you can pretty much drive everywhere without actually even seeing the light. When i do drive on the street, i actually use the first light as my shift light. And when i drive on the track i use the flash function as my shift light. It works great. I highly recommend it.

[QUOTE=XT43;838069]Are you trying to power out in second gear?[/QUOTE]

The first one i was deliberately trying to feather the throttle. But i let off a bit too much at the end of the turn and it bogged down hard.

Reason being if i mash it, the car wants to slide real wide, and its not actually a very fast way around the corner. (But does look awesome) But if i can keep it tight and NOT let it bog out of the hole then i think it would be a pretty quick way around the cone.

The second one was just co-ordination failure. I didnt carry enough speed into it, or turned in a bit too early, Then missed gear after i borked up. Just all round derp derp moment.

Un-fuking-believable!!!! Just weighed a brand new 295/30r18 Yoko A050 fitted to a Volk Racing ZE40 18x10, and compared it with the Drift 6 / Z221 combo when new. Guess what? The 295s wiegh LESS than than the 235. (Just) WTF? I was expecting to take a bit of a wieght penalty, not actually save wieght when going up to that size. Bonus.

19.930 KG - Rays Volk Racing, 18x10+35, with Yokohama A050, 295/30R18.

20.040 KG - Gmax Drift 6, 17x8+35, with Hankook Z221, 235/45R17.

Those wheels are just porn!

Fake utube scales ftw.

Sell me those wheels, tyres and carbon shaft bro.

Maybe the flares too.

Scales are legit. I use them for AC and they go down to 10g increments, and its always accurate. I know because i can weigh the AC gas bottle after ive finished a job. Then when i go to do the next AC job, the bottle wieghs the exact same. And an empty bottle always wieghs spot on for its tare wieght. So i know the scales are accurate AND consistent.

I still cant believe that a 295/30/18 Yoko wighs less than a 235/45/17 hankook though. The 295 is a smaller diameter, but surely the extra 50mm would push it. It must be something to do with the construction of a yoko vs a hankook? Maybe there is more tread thickness in the hankooks?

Unfortuantly, none of those parts will fit your car.

^^I can't believe you took the bait.

I can't believe you're fishing.
