Oil change, installed the Greddy magnetic drain plug, replaced the trans and diff fluid. Still have to do brake fluid, and purchase a cargo tray for the trunk.

Greddy EVOlution GT cat-back exhaust came today. It's going to be a busy weekend installing all the parts I've got laying around!

Weighed my new 18" Volk ce28n's 18x7.5 that I just got and got this. Tires are 225/45R18 pole positions that are rated at 26lbs, not sure how accurate this is . Waiting on my RCE yellows to arrive to put them on..

I have a hard time believing those wheels weigh 13lbs.

I do as well, but you can see the scale picture . Unless the pole positions don't weigh 26lbs

Maybe they do. This http://measurespeed.com/volk-rims-wheel-weight says the 17x7.5 is 13.8 lbs. 18x8 is 14.7 lbs. Perhaps the pole positions are tad under expected weight? Would make sense. That's rather impressive.

This one picture took me like 30 minutes to figure out lol! You take a picture, shutter opens, you run around waiving light on the curves of the car, "painting it in light", then you get out of the way before the shutter closes. You basically wait 40 seconds a photo. Plus it's complete darkness so trying to focus the subject takes like 6 minutes lol!

Here's the same picture, shot with an iPhone...

Bring a spotlight or big flashlight to help get your focus right then set your lens to manual focus and any stabilization features to off. Helps with the focus guess work/trial and error a lot for me.
