Haven’t posted here in a while. Since last season I had finally installed the 5-lug and 4 piston front brakes. I also slapped on those super rare 5Zigen Fn01-RC’s (insert sarcasm here), wrapped in Falken GRB FK-451’s. Still lots to do especially in the interior, just too lazy. Other than that, I plan to up the boost and visit the track while weather is still okay. Oh yeah, sorry about the quality of the pics, they were taken with my cell phone. ![http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v313/Sonic180sx/2006%20180sx/new4.jpg](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v313/Sonic180sx/2006%20180sx/new4.jpg) ![http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v313/Sonic180sx/2006%20180sx/new3.jpg](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v313/Sonic180sx/2006%20180sx/new3.jpg) ![http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v313/Sonic180sx/2006%20180sx/new2.jpg](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v313/Sonic180sx/2006%20180sx/new2.jpg) ![http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v313/Sonic180sx/2006%20180sx/new5.jpg](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v313/Sonic180sx/2006%20180sx/new5.jpg) ![http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v313/Sonic180sx/2006%20180sx/new7.jpg](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v313/Sonic180sx/2006%20180sx/new7.jpg) ---

GTChamption, I would love to tally up the total cost for all the Kouki body pieces, but I would probably shoot myself in the head once I saw the grand total. I bought pretty much all the exterior stuff about 3 years ago. Everything was bought new, except for the rear valeance. I also ended up paying more than I should, since these parts although brand new from Nissan Japan, were still hard to aquire. As for the wheel setup, I and running 17x8 in the front and 17x9 in the back. Yeah the 10 inch version would have looked sick, but my 17x9 barely fits, since I am running unrolled fenders. ---

Beauty of a type-x man. Lower the front a little, i agree with that. The exhaust is dragging, which im sure you already knew. For some reason i personally dont like those 4pc side skirts, i prefer something like the PDM skirts, i think they go PERFECT with the front bumper and rear valence. Anyways, keep it going, and never look back. Good luck! ---

Yeah, I was still running the teardrops last season. I always had the FMIC install though. Here is the original thread I made a while back. If you browse through the pages you can see the before/after pics. As you can see the car wasn’t always black, nor was it rust-free…lol [http://www.son240sx.ca/forum/viewtopic.php?t=17650&start=0](http://www.son240sx.ca/forum/viewtopic.php?t=17650&start=0) ---

looks good, 20mm spacer in the back and a roll would make it look just that much better all around. i suggest r33 wheels with 225 45 17 and a 20mm spacer… that would be gangster cause it would stick you in the oem cleanleyness catigory ---
