Rota subzero powder coated in anthracite grey, and wrapped with 195/50R15 westlake rubber..... cheap, but good durable tire!!
Also, went with a 2.25" straight through "B" pipe, to test waters on sound and flow.... it feels a bit looser, but not yet being tuned i have to see if 2.25 was too much....
On the sound matter... i didnt thought it was going to be as loud as it turned out to be.... so im considering slapping on a testpipe type of mod where i can put on orntake out a resonator whenever i want.... so im even considering doing it with V bands instead of 2 bolt or 3 bolt flanges....
Looking forward to pictures when you get the rears installed. I've been debating putting window visors, but don't really like the look of the ones that have been offered previously.
Still waiting on the rears....originally scheduled to be delivered Saturday …. now scheduled "indeterminate".....maybe they haven'tmade any rear window visors yet, fronts showed up as scheduled. It could be worse, we're still without a washing machine after a week and a half.....The Home Depot really dropped the ball, never dealing with them again. Lowes was supposed to deliver today......ummmm, maybe tomorrow.....wtf is going on ???

Don't know. Would be nice if website said that they are coming direct from manufacturer. I ordered from WT Canada. No choice on light grey color either. No biggie, it's not like it's going to affect my ride. Twisted throttle and Crutchfield (both Canada) went out of their way to deliver me a 4gal Rotopax gas tank and Audio Control Amp. Great service, hence the plug for them!
NorthcoastFit15 - thanks for posting that picture. It's a little hard to see with your dark tint, but is there a deflector area near the front of the front window?
Can you hear the deflectors and the wind with the windows closed?
Can only speak for the 6 spd manual, …. no ...can't hear any deflector induced wind noise....my rear windows are supposed to be delivered today, I guess, as opposed to the original Sat scheduled, but, whatever. Thanks, NorthcoastFit15, for posting up pics …I like the WTs
OK cool. I will be purchasing the whole set. Looks like you got the dark tinted version? Now to decide if I want the light or dark tint ones... I have 50% tint on the fronts and 35% on the fronts to comply with local tint laws.
installed an AFE cold air box and a J's Racing front tower bar last night
install was done in in about 10 minutes and instantly noticed the improvements and more fun noises on a windy backroad thrash.
tower bar took longer (because i'm a muppet sometimes which means I had to go fishing for an important bolt i dropped)
the mugen suspension has finally settled in, and i'm super stoked with the results
not a massive drop in height but it absorbs everything i can throw at it and keeps it planted
custom rear axle back muffler will be made up soon.
I want to make something cool to replace the earth dreams decal that's a "future me issue"

I can confirm the dyno sheets they have on the product page are accurate (I have access to a dyno)
the install is slick a subtle.
immediately you can notice increased throttle response
The increase in power available becomes very noticeable from about 2500 up
the induction noise does not change down low but up around when the Vtec "kicked in yo" the "bwaaahhh" is much clearer and so much more satisfying
Side bonus is I am getting improved fuel mileage the numbers are previously with my "less than ideal" driving style (again Vtec and windy windy roads)
I was returning between 6.9 km/L and 7.0km/L on a 120km loop down the around the Hunua ranges
same loop now I return 6.7km/L and 6.8km/L with the same lead footed approach
in traffic the engine seems happier and a bit less thirsty

Must you remove the whole assembly to change the air filter?
