Re: New wheel pics and a question

Yea, It's a 96 gsr. Here's what I have to date..

aem ram air intake
dcsports 421 ceramic header
topspeed stainless high flow cat
dc sports cat-back exhaust
02 sim (for the sensor at the end of the cat)
16" rota slipstreams w/ sumitumo hrtz II tires

I may have to look into the zex, allthough I would rather have mods that are working all the time, not just when I press the button.

Doesn't the aem kit come with the underdrive pulley? If not, what does the underdrive do? I heard if you replace some of the pulleys (such as the crankshaft) it will disrupt the "harmonic balance" and ruin the life of the engine. The underdrive pulley won't do that, will it? That's why I was looking at the aem pulleys b/c they arent supposed to hurt anything (it sounds as if you get 5 or so hp).

What have you heard about the nology hotwires (are they worth it, do they actually do anything?). The hyperground kit sounds like it is not worth it, some people say you don't get any gains from it (and it's like 120$). So as of right now, the aem pulleys, nology hotwires or possibly zex, unless you have any other suggestions.
