IMO, MRR-GT-1's look really cheap, BBS LM's are a much better looking mesh style wheel. May be a bit expensive but spending the right amount of money once and be happy. Those M5 wheels would be perfect![thumbs](https://mbworld.org/forums/images/smilies/thumbsup.gif)

One thing I don't like about LMs, is they look one size smaller than they are.
I am currently leaning towards those M6 wheels. But I do hope to get them in gloss black!

MOD: NGK Iridium Spark Plugs (-5,-6)
DATE: JUNE 19, 2008
So, I got my plugs from Anthony@TVT_Design today, for a great price. TVT_Design is helpful on my future mods.
I got, six -5 and six -6 plugs, according to TVT, for my car, I should run a -5 in Plug location A and -6 in plug location B.
Just updating!

Nick, we might need to re-route the tubes to the lower passenger foglight area, its more spacious and further away from the engine!
Since the V6s have two spark plugs in each cyl. (total of 12), as said on the coilpacks, theres a "location A" and "location B" spark plug.

Still looks as amazing as ever! Nice work Advan...
Can I make a request...When you get time, can you do some shots of your rear spoiler? I'm quite interested in that style (its pretty subtle, especially black on black). I'd also be interested to see how the spoiler 'overhangs' the trunk line and flows onto the lights at each end.
Still got the best looking coupe I've seen!

Plus, to be honest, anything short of boring out my motor and adding a S/C it will be a dog.

That is what I'm always scared of. you can always add one of those shield things. But I doubt thats much help. well, I was also thinking to adding a Y-section towards the end of the intake, to install two cones instead of one, Maybe I'll do that. But that defeats the whole purpose of my renntech airbox lolll
