I'm actually going with the Falken RT-615's now. Very comparable tire (Direzza's have a stiffer sidewall), but they're $30 less a tire for the same size (savings of $120), and there's an $80 mail-in, so that puts it at a $200 savings. Guy is paying me for my Ameripol top on Wednesday, so there's my tire money. Bam. :P
jeez Eran... what dont you have for your sol? i mean the only parts i havnt seen yet are the rear fog, and the trans top!

No plans for the transtop or rear fog. ;)

I really would like one of the JDM rear windows, but that'll be when it's no longer a daily driver. Deleting rear defrost = stupid for a Washington DD. :P

A friend in Amsterdam.

I've got Azenis rt615 on my other wheels too. your going to f**king love em. I don't knw if there's a way to measure or determine hardness on the sidewalls, but i have to say that Azenis have the stiffer sidewall. They also have a lower treadware, which makes them stickier! I bought them about two years ago and only used em for year, they've been sitting in storage wrapped on Si wheels, one day i realized "why am i using such a great tire for daily commuting" and that's when i found the Fuzions, lol. I got the azenis for like 350 shipped from edgeracing. that place went out of business now.

funny thing though, when i went from Azenis to Fuzions, i actually felt like the car was faster. ugh, part of it is because i through my car's suspension out of balance. Sometimes i wish i could of never swap out the d16

Whered you get that B pipe?
Brand new from Honda. Was the last one that my parts guy could find, all the other dealers were on backorder.

It's SO nice having brand new exhaust parts. Like, no worries about rust or bent hangers or blown gaskets.

lol.. i was expecting 1500 at the most. how much do they run brand new?
You can't buy them brand new. I paid $1200 in like 7/10 condition. They go for $1500 all day in used condition.

Mine are professionally refinished with brand new decals Zero miles since refinish, no scuffs, no scrapes, no tires mouned.

I'm not selling them anyways -- so take a hike, junior. :twisted:

K Swaps are just fashion show. Paying $8-10K for a swap to make 220bhp doesn't sound like a good deal to me. Might as well pay $2500 and have an H22A.
