Sorry to hear you’re engine is in such a bad shape that you have to carry emergency oil with you. 🤪🤪🤪🤪 Lot’s of blue smoke?

I’ve never been low on oil between changes. 🤷‍♂️

A quote from another thread:

"you don't need it when you carry it around, you only need it when you don't have it."

Never been low between changes-but you never know when you may need it. Better to be safe than sorry.

New shoes.
Went with the RE980AS. 305s fit my 11" rears perfectly.
Not a track car, just my DD and use it year round. Winters here have semi occasional snow that rarely accumulates, but it does get cold. Figured this was a reasonable compromise. Installed by Tread Connection in my driveway. Great experience, highly recommend.

New wheels...having a 2nd set is never a bad thing. Looks like they came out great. Light too. I wish I had a good scale to weigh them.

Custom, 1-Off
20x9 ET45
20x11.5 ET45

Will run stock tire sizes.

I installed the body color headlight cleaners today. I broke the small retaining tab off one of them. After testing it still worked properly. I hope it doesn’t get stuck in the future. I almost never use them anyway.

Playing catch up here...last couple weeks installed clear side LED markers, installed MirrorTap for the radar detector, fixed some paint chips, treated the convertible top, and replaced the door sill trim which showed wear. Next up...Smart Top, new tires, and at some I need red brake calipers!

Bought a 2017 GTS 4, less than 2 weeks ago, I'll post up some pics soon.

Already spending extra moneys...

Ordered GT3RS side skirts, should be here by the end of the month.

BFI shift ****, what a difference. Definitely worth the price. Was gonna do a red "coin" to match the red gauges and belts, but it didn't go well with the ****.

Picked up a used SS Kline exhuast in great shape, new Kline 200 cell cats and used Kline headers. The whole system is there, waiting for an install one day. Soon I hope.

Want to thank @PTS-BRG for taking the time to meet with me a few weeks ago to listen to his exhaust. He has the same setup. It was a pleasure meeting another enthusiast and good guy. If you haven’t seen pics of his car, you should search, it is amazing. The mods too, are just amazing. Thanks again for helping me make my decision 👍🏻
