    Punishment racing fmic for 2g

    Affordable 2g FMIC similar to XSpower?

    I really don't see why people get 12" intercoolers when 80% of DSMers never pass the "50 trim phase." and/or make more than 400whp. A 7-10" intercooler is more than enough and will make the car response better than a 12"Just my .02 cents.

    2.5 inch SS test pipe with flanges?

    why don't you go to a local exhaust shop and get one made. It is only a ~14" piece of SS and two 2-bolt flange. I don't know how strict your regulations are in your state but there is nothing illegal if they just make it for you. However, it will probably be illegal if they install it for you...

    Tire suggestions for $130?

    I had the G-Force Sport they are a great all-around tire (pun not intended). They gripped fairly well, comfortable, and didn't hydroplane. The only complaint i had about them was they were loud for a "ultra high performance tire." The only tire that I would recommend would the the Kumho SPTs...

    anyone ever bolt a muffler straight to the o2 housing?

    If you want your car to be quiet. Just add two resonators to your existing cat-back. Also, if you have a test pipe swap it out for a Vibrant Ultra Quiet Resonator.

    New wheels... need tires suggestions

    If the offset is +49 there is no way you are going to fit wider wheels without spacers. For example, my RX7 wheels are 8" 50+ offset and i rubbed with a 225/50; I had to get a 5mm spacer just to clear the control arm. I you want a 235-245 you will probably need 8mm-10mm spacers, extended studs...

    Need tires for 1g, AWD, 16x8 rim, 11.50 times

    16" rims don't have many sizes. For a 8" rim your choices are 225/50, 245/50, and 245/45. I am not saying all of these will fit because I don't know the offset of your wheels. In addition, a 245/50 has a really big sidewall and I can't promise that they won't rub even at stock ride height...

    New wheels... need tires suggestions

    if your on coilovers you will have no problem since you can just raise the car enough so it doesnt rub. As it sits right now your car is too low. I have coilovers with a 9kg/6kg spring rate and I needed a 2 finger gap in the front a 3 finger gap in the rear to have absolutely no rubbing (even...

    New wheels... need tires suggestions

    a 225/35/19 is actually the ideal size. It keeps the overall circumference close to the stock size. However, if you want more meat on the tires go 235/35/19. Lastly, telling use the offset would be useful. Just by looking at them i think they are 45-40.

    Tein H.Tech Springs...Anyone using them?

    Tein springs both S and H are SOFTER than stock (do some research on the spring rates). If you care for performance, your better off getting another brand.

    Pics of 2g with 245-45-17

    i doubt anyone will have a 245/45 tire on a GSX rims because it is way too small for that tire. A 245 on a 6.5" is wrong on so many levels.

    New breed of "eBay" turbo

    Thats odd because this is how the original intake comes on a a EVO 3. In addition, the IC piping doesn't go over the heat shield. Moreover, the first picture the intake manifold doesn't look like a EVO manifold since it has the writing on it.

    Exhaust fitment with downpipe/cat

    The only problem I can think of is IF the Greddy CBE bottlenecks to attach to the stock cat, than the RRE downpipe will not work because it is a 3". You will need to bring your CBE to an exhaust shop so he can get rid of the bottleneck.

    RX7 Wheels Really Worth It?

    you don't have to but I STRONGLY RECOMMEND you do. I asked this question to a few local performance shop all of them agreed anything over 5mm spacers you really should get longer and stronger studs.

    17x8 Enkei RPF1, what offset?

    Tire width really depends on manufacturer.My old 245 Michelin Pilot Sport were BARELY wider than my 225 BFGoodrich G-Force Sport on my old 8" wheels. Tires such as RT615, Advan Neovas, Direzza Z1, Nitto NT01, and RE01R run extremely wide for their width.

    RX7 Wheels Really Worth It?

    only the EARLY 1993 wheels are prone to cracking. They modified all wheels after to be strong (and slightly heavier).Thank You Turbo Addict from finding my old post didn't want to dig through my pictures to upload it again. ROFLFor the record my wheels WITH tires came in at 38lbs. According...

    wheel size and offset to be able to run 275s?

    there is a huge difference between: tires that fit on a wheel and tires that fit PROPERLY on a wheela 255/40 should NOT be on a 8" wheel. The minimum width recommendation is 8.5" but optimal would be 9". Having a tire that is too wide for a certain wheel width will cause the center section of...

    RX7 Wheels Really Worth It?

    I use my RX7 for daily driving. If you get a 225/50 you only need a 5mm spacer. The quality/brand of spacer is up to you. I got $10 ones at a local tuning shop. If you get 245/45 10mm spacers would be required and along with longer studs and new lug nuts.

    Widest Tire

    its going to stick out that much regardless of a 225-245. That offset with that width is not meant for a stock body 2G. If you are concerned about traction the more sidewall the better. So getting a 235/45, 225/45, or 245/45 would be ideal. The reality is you are going to rub just depends how...

    Widest Tire

    running a 245/40 is very common. However, it has ALOT to do with how low your is and camber. If you car is slammed you, are going to rub everywhere. In addition, the offset you have is going to make them stick out passed the fenders by about 1.25".

    new valve cover

    If you used the metallic red from duplicolor, it is going to fade. I have painted a few of them and all of them faded to an orange. For some weird reason the green and purple held up fine. Also, I let them dry for 1 week just like the back of the can directed.
