Found this too. Might be a sweet steal, especially for someone in SoCal. If i wasnt shopping for wheels, id be down there tomorrow! P.s. Does anyone have this exhaust, or sound clips of it? http://orangecounty.craigslist.org/pts/1037540744.html | | | | | 03-04-2009, 05:36 AM | #18 | | That's not Millpoint Blue Join Date: Apr 2005 Location: BNA Posts: 3,161 |

When I bought mine, I was told that it was the last one they had. __________________ Real men know how to SEARCH!

The k55 and the k30 design revolve around the m3 style bumper. On a regular m3 bumper, the middle opening has a bigger width than the openings on the side. On the k30, the middle opening's width is equivalent to the openings on the sides. But on the k55, the side openings is equivalent to the middle. So it's a matter of taste. There is something for everybody. __________________ Come get a ti-shirt

Will the strut bar fit a DASC'ed ti? | | | | | 03-04-2009, 11:27 PM | #25 | | Moderator Join Date: Mar 2007 Location: Maryland Posts: 3,220 |

You guys need to remember that they are simply going through OLD STOCK at the shop to clear out space... If he didn't mention it my guess is they don't have it...
The strut bar should clear the DASC as long as it is the same height as the engine, it was designed to clear our oddly angled engine... Shame they only have 2 of those available... __________________ 2LT Rodriguez CA ARNG

In the spirit of "helping out members of the .org"...
I'll be in Irvine, CA on Saturday, March 14th, and expect to visit the RD facility to pick up my cat-back. I'll get an updated list of what they have left at that time. If you're SERIOUSLY interested in something they have, I can try to get photos of it while I'm there. Send me a PM by the 12th so we can work out how to get info to you. The easiest way for me is to take pix with my phone and send them to you via text message.
It's also possible that I could bring items back to Nashville for you to pick up there, thus saving you some shipping. You will need to work out payment with RD (they accept credit cards) because I won't get involved in that. Please PM me ASAP if you're thinking about doing that. __________________ Real men know how to SEARCH!

Shame they only have 2 of those available... | I remember reading someplace that the strut braces are angled to clear the intake manifold, so if you have a DASC, a regular 6 cyl. strut brace will fit because there's no high intake manifold | | | | | |
