Tarmac 58 Report post Posted January 27, 2015 Oooo, I want the JR3's, how do they differ to Rota Grids Chris? Yeah we have sold 3 sets this week so far, they are popular. They are a similar design to the Grids. Just noticed your sig, I have the STI style lip in stock now and the CS Bottomline lip if your interested Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Keethos 842 Report post Posted January 28, 2015 Thanks Chris but I've got my eye on Rob's body kit at the moment but thanks. Any ideas if the JR3's are more, equal or less concaved as the Rota Grids? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JamesP1991 222 Report post Posted February 4, 2015 Wow sounds incredible Smudge! What is it like on the motorway at sensible speeds? As I have to go to Upminster the following day on Saturday for a birthday and I don't think my girlfriend will appreciate getting droned to death haha Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
smudge 1020 Report post Posted February 4, 2015 I have a high flow cat in place to stop her droning. Had the same setup on my 350z before Just cruising it's fine, stamp your foot and it screams! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JamesP1991 222 Report post Posted February 4, 2015 I was going to go down the HFC route originally, however they were so much more expensive than catless front pipes at the time! My car is a bit of a weekend toy at the moment so I'm not too fussed about how loud she will be, looking forward to opening her up for the first time on Friday after fitting and hearing that glorious burble!

smudge 1020 Report post Posted February 4, 2015 There's a reason they're more expensive...they're better! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JamesP1991 222 Report post Posted February 5, 2015 They arrived yesterday Keethos, concave is hard to see in these photos as I had to pop out at the time so couldn't get a nice side shot.. Will do that tomorrow! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JamesP1991 222 Report post Posted February 11, 2015 So got them fitted and the TEIN springs have settled at last! Have to say it has transformed the look of the car and I am so happy! Huge props to Chris and the gang at Tarmac, were hugely helpful! 2 Keethos and Tarmac reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

KobayashiMaru 28 Report post Posted June 23, 2016 Other wheels considered "light". A BBS is 11kg and considered heavy, light would be 7-8kg. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
