Nice pics and nice vid. Tell us more about that laser install, could you?


Christiano..... The owner of the orange car is on 3Si, icemanII i believe is his screen name. This past weekend was the 2011 3000GT/Stealth Blue Ridge Gathering, i was out of place without the silver car that's in my profile. The E53 did ok though. By chance, did I give you a price quote for the 4 StopTech brakes from my Silver 3000GT VR-4? I did email a Christiano in Brasil, is it you? If so, small world LOL, (and you have excellent taste in automobiles)

The dual Radar and single laser system by K40 was installed by the previous owner

J.Belknap - Damn, they look really nice… your second and third pictures under “Random pics” are beautiful… what size are you running on the rears?

I have 315/35-20 on the rear with 275/40-20 on front… do I need new rims to put 315 on fronts? Any need to modify the suspension?
Thanks,

Thanks bud, and yes, you'll need to source another set of rear wheels to go with the 315/35/20 tires. You'll want fender arches in the front too. And the rears have 25mm spacers to even the front to rear track widths. No need to modify the suspension.

Should mention... recommend keeping an eye on the control arm bushings and wheel bearings for accelerated wear. Steering will be heavier. Tire noise will be louder. Acceleration and braking will suffer slightly.

The upside, is that the "feel" is amazing (IMHO) and worth it. Also, you can rotate tires now. (At least, front to rear)

MAN, I'M CHRISKART09, from 3si Forum!!! I did that price quote with you!!! hahahaha WHAT A SMALL WORLD!!!!!

Well, thank's for all support, your pictures are amazing. I really like that "laser" thing, just need to know if it really works or not.

Very nice to see some "friend" here. After I had some problems with mvpmotorsport, I'm not posting so much in 3si anymore. Never mind, they refund all my money (almost 7 months later!), but they did it.

Nice to see you again,

Chris, Brazil
