I swapped pads for a track day last week and test fit these Weds SA-55M 18x8.5 +50 just to make sure they'd clear my BBK. They do so I might use these for the street and get a set of R-comps for the TC105's once I burn through the RE-71's that are on them now. Or I'll just throw them on my daily.

Also, installed the Vios III that I picked up awhile ago but realized after I bolted everything in that the seat belt extender that came with it was for an AP1 which is a different receiver than the AP2. Worst part is that I had already installed the Stradia on the new passenger rail and bolted in the seatbelt. So I had to undo everything and put the Stradia back on the drivers rail. Wasted a couple of hours. Decided to leave the passenger seat out. Made it a lot easier to fit stuff for the track.

Unfortunately, it was a wet track day.

A square piece of electrical tape.

All this work and no tune? I had a Gernby FlashPro road tune done as soon as induction and exhaust were solidified the same as one of your early examples (FIPK, 63.5mm Berk high flow cat, and Tanabe Medalion Touring dual exhaust). Really changed the performance of the car!

Please tell us you're not going to be sloshing thru the salted Toronto streets this winter!

I'm going to pick up some headers and flashpro in the off season and get it tuned for next spring. Didn't bother getting a flashpro yet because I knew I wanted a set of headers and I'm switching to the J's Tsuchinoko once the bumper is painted. Figured it'd be a waste of a tune and I wouldn't get out to too many trackdays this year anyways. Still trying to decide on which headers. Leaning towards the Urge Unicorn.

No winters for me. I have an AWD daily for that. Going to throw it up on the quickjack and leave it floating in the underground. Make it harder to steal too lol.

Good to go!

Mine will look like this before Christmas. The paper on the trunk lid is a Do Not Drive notice since all the road insurance is cancelled until Easter.

I've got to check to see if they'll let me cancel just the liability portion of my insurance during the winter. They won't let you do it for motorcycle insurance.

I can do mine on-line. Start/stop at any time.

State/provincial insurance laws vary.
