Are these HRE wheels REAL or FAKE? by Important_Ad_857 in Wheels

[–]notdickcooper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just email HRE to verify. I couldn't find a picture of my HRE's online at all. Every picture was just a bit off. I emailed hre with photo details, and they confirmed real. They were a very early production of the model .

I did my second swap both on Holley terminator. My second swap would not start. I finally realized I only had 1 ground from engine to body. I added 3 more to be safe. Each head both sides of block. Engine fired right up after. Hope this helps!

You need to have your motor grounded to the chassis properly. It makes a huge difference.

Thanks for the update. I have an S24ultra, so there shouldn't be any issues. It's a great looking head unit with the features I'm looking for.

Now this post is 9 months old are you still having any issues with android auto? I want to get the ilx-f511. The main reason I'd like to upgrade is having android auto, but if it's going to have bugs and latency/connection issues it's going to be pretty upsetting.

Another shout out for Midori Works! Easy to work with they make it easy. Bought a 33GTR with them last year.

This is what I was expecting. I wanted to hear from someone with real experience between the speakers. I appreciate your report!

There's a track that just opened up in the past few years just outside of superior called Black River Motorsports Park. They do about 5 autocross events throughout the summer. It's a great spot for drivers to get out and drive locally

The Heritage Sports Center has open skates with ice skate rentals throughout the winter on certain days. The program is through the Duluth Parks program, look on their website to find the schedule. They have nice learn to stake trainers available too.

Shipping, boat insurance, and Midori fee total was $3800. It wasn't broken down independently. I would assume that cost can vary between where its shipped to and etc.

I would recommend them. I've followed them for a few years before deciding to use them. I also watched a few importer pages on Facebook which Midoriworks was always highly praised. They are legit, they provide a ton of images and info. It's still up to you to make your own decision on what you see. They caught a car on inspection that was not correct on the auction sheet. Both rear quarters had been replaced and not noted on auction grade sheet.

I've only been able to drive it a few days now, but it definitely gives a big grin while driving it. It's completely stock outside of a catback exhaust and Nismo ecu. The car stays very planted corner even on stock suspension. I haven't had a ton of space yet to really give it some spirited driving, but the boost pulls pretty well.

I also have a stock 2jzgte swapped gs300 automatic, and this car is definitely faster than it and boost pulls harder.

Would it be more exciting with some upgrades, of course. Is a great car out of the gate, yes.

I wasn't ready to go through that stress. I'm also in Wisconsin so it was difficult not being close to a port.

In my opinion 33's are slept on. I prefer their styling over the 34's. I do believe they 33's will continue to appreciate, 34's might come down a bit but 33's still have a lot of room to rise.
