Your car is beautiful. I just hate it how in pics they look red. Do you use those tires on teh street? If so, how do they frive for everyday? how about in the rain?
 
Thanks ...

I just put them on the other day and there was a light rain and they were fine...But I'll normally only have them on for the track because they pick up every bit of sand on the road and throw into the wheelwell....

I pull low 1.8 and high 1.7's on my 275/50R15 bfgs d/r with 4500-5000 rpm launches. They hook best witht a good warm up. I use a line look for that.

I actually have some whine with my 4.10's, but that is my fault since I installed them. I have played with the backlash on it a few times, and it did not help. My guess is that the pinion gear is off by a little. My whine is only a real problem at 70+ mph. Actually, they do not whine during accel or coasting. They whine only when I have about 10-20% throttle. It is really annoying because that is right at crusing speeds on the highway. It is just noticable at 75 mph, but by 80+ mph or so it really resonates through the car and is very annoying. So much so that now I only drive 75 or so instead of 80 mph :( When ever I get the motivation I will have to fudge with the pinion depth.

I'm right off 190 and Preston...I still have my 4.10's if you want to take a look at em and maybe save some $$$. FRPP's with about 2K miles on em...Honestly, I think you would like the 4.30's much more than the 4.10's....I know I do!!!
what rims are you running and what tire size.. thats a nice 1/4 mile for your mods if you aren't running 15 or 15" rims.
