rominl - your car (GS) looks GREAT. Curious - why do you need/want the Acura as well? Nothing against the Acura, I just don't see why you want two sport sedans. I'd sell the Acura and get something less or more practical (maybe Toyota Spyder or Sequoia! ).

Oh one question - do you know if those rims will allow you to fit a big brake upgrade?

hahhaa, yup i own both cars, but i gave one of them to my gf as a bday present. not exactly which one, but i just bought the gs4 and told her we will be switching cars. initially i was thinking about getting the rsx-s (small car) but i ended up getting pretty much the same deal on the gs4, how could i resist?! so now i am driving one and my gf is driving one, and after a while we swap cars, etc... and since i have put in so many mods on both cars i dunno if i really wanna sell them any time soon, hehe...

for the rims, yes it will clear the rmm supra tt brake upgrade and also the endless 6 pistons setup. i have yet to find out about brembo 4 pistons and also the ap racing 6 pistons, which are the brakes i am considering. any ideas?

Very nice.. Damn, could your car be any shinyer ( sp?? ).

I love my white GS, but it just doesn't give off that bright shiny brilliance like dark colors... What kind of wax are you using, if any?

haha, thanks well, for the record, i wash my car every week and usually wax the car every week or once every two weeks, so...

for the wax, since i stil have quite a lot of zaino here, i will be sticking with them for a while. after i got the car i actually stripped all the old wax (though thye looked ok) and put on the zaino, so far they are holding up well
