the rims are 17x8 Rota Torques with 48mm offset. I just got them at the beginning of the summer.

I love the exhaust. I have had it for over 2 and half years now. It sounds awesome. Really low pitch, not too loud. I have the ZPI s-pipe, also so the power gain is pretty significant. I think that ZPI says that you should get around 20hp from the exhaust and s-pipe. The only other things I have under the hood are a carbon fiber umnitza intake, a ZPI crank pully and I have a ZPI engine limiter on the way. I didn't take any pics under the hood b/c it is very very dirty. I haven't really had any reason to clean it so I haven't been. I know I know, I need to and I will.... sometime. Myabe once I have a day off. I have had to work the past 9 days in a row.

O come on. haha rotas aren't that bad. I figured they were only $500 and I only use them for daily driver wheels, so that way I won't be to mad if they get messed up.

Love the car and the setup. Prolly nice for autocross. I would love to have a BBK and some nice light wheels.

As for the photography some of the compositions are a little off and u definitely need a polarizer to take away the harsh lighting and reflections. Also shoot more around the time the sun is going down so there isn't such harsh lighting which will also create more contrast.

the tc looks really nice but i think it needs to be lowered a little more and you should get the tint for the tail lights. but it looks fantastic

thanks for the comments. ya the BBK is great for track days. There really isn't significant improvement for autocross, b/c there isn't enough time for the brakes to heat up. But I still love them.

As for the photography, I have no skills haha. I just thought that some of those places look cool. I kinda, let's say borrowed the camera from work for the weekend. We use it to document wrecks and stuff at work (I work at a GM plant), and no one was going to be using it this weekend so I figured that I could put it to good use. How could I fix the composition? any tips?
