Thanks for the pics of your RP03's! I'm looking at getting the same, but in Special Brilliant Coating! I love the design, size and weight savings. They're going to be my autox and winter wheels.

For sure.

The next thing for me is probably header / exhaust. Looking at whatever amount of Perrin Exhaust along with a new UEL header (subie sound!)

Beyond that, i'd like to supercharge but that's not anytime soon.

I keep going back to these wheels. Did you get the +48 or +45 offset?

Gopherboy6956 · 08-16-2013, 06:50 PM

48mm offset

Those wheels look interestingly good.

Great build so far man!

Thanks! I fell in love with those wheels when I had my RSX - And of course it was a different bolt pattern, so I literally had to buy them again lol

JS + BRZ · 01-22-2014, 04:26 PM

Damn, that's some dedication man. haha

Looking good!

So glad I found this. I have so many questions for you. I'll keep it simple for now as it's like 2am in Chicago. Do you have the oem rear speakers running off the head unit?

I was looking at the exact amp and speakers!

Yes,

I have the OEM rear speakers running off the headunit. I figure they are so far behind me, and there is so much audio in front of me, it just wouldn't pay (in $$$ or time spent doing it) to change them.

I can say with confidence, that I don't miss them at all. I just fade the sound about 7 or 8 arbitrary clicks to the front speakers to fade out the rear a bit. Just used for fill now.

Let me know if you have any other questions
