Looks very nice, is it quick silver?

 

Shame about the wheels again tho :D

I'm sick of people saying these wheels are crap!! Have you tried weighing them? The whole point is they're so light! Just cos they're three spokes. :complain:

(I feel better now :rolleyes: )

I couldnt care less, im commenting on the looks, not the weight, and IMHO they look CRAP.

 

Besides I bet you the guy/gal who put them on didnt think at all about the weight, 3 spokes are just popular in Japan, advan wheels etc, like the ones with the coloured centers too.

 

If I was after a light wheel it'd be Volks.

That's what I like to hear!!!!

 

450 for the wheels on ebay...

 

Did you hear that Jurgen!!?

 

I've hit the jackpot :thumbs:

 

Anyway - there may be some bits and pices up for sale. I have to put a roll cage in it, to keep the family happy, (I'll post a picture of my old sup - it's not a pretty sight, or rather it was until last november) and the wing is up for grabs, possibly even the bonnet if it is a bit too much to much in real life - never can tell until you see it in the flesh!

I agree with you completely dude! 3 spokes look gei! If you want light wheels and were concerned about it you should buy some Magnesium ones.

 

I have Volk's and I bet they are not any heavier than those 3 spokes.

 

Is all down to personal opinion at the end of the day though.

 

I think the car other than that looks nice though. I'm very jealous :complain:

Nah, I don't think jurgen will, no one does...do they? I'm thinking of letting terry at it when it comes, see what the cost of putting a sensible single on it may be... depends what it is like in real life - seems strange to have evc and fcon-v on it with stock turbos....

 

My last car was never remapped - it should be ok on optimax before I decide what to do with it.

Only a few HKS dealers have access to the software.

 

Your last car was running a stock ECU though Mike? Just mentioning it as the Japanese will have tuned it for 100 octane fuel I'd imagine.

 

Gaz.
