mark newman Posted December 17, 2011 Share Posted December 17, 2011 Very nice Jamie ,new wheels looks good, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pudsey Posted December 17, 2011 Share Posted December 17, 2011 Looks great with the new wheels on, not that it looked bad before though as it still looked great even then. Just out of interest really....... Do the drag size tyres give a nice smooth ride? (as I guess the side walls allow plenty of bump soaking). I assume you don't need that much air in them, so are they bouncy at all? On a separate note - Your paintwork looks stunning as it certainly isn't easy to keep a black car that sparkly. Top job indeed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neil-NA Posted December 18, 2011 Share Posted December 18, 2011 I think he may mean the 'nur motorsport' logo that on the wings before. I will say it again, awesome stuff, if my supra ever grows up i would love it to be like yours Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamieP Posted December 18, 2011 Author Share Posted December 18, 2011 Ahh I see, I just wanted it looking a bit more stock, I removed and sold the led rear lights an all. Thanks Neil. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
j_jza80 Posted December 18, 2011 Share Posted December 18, 2011 Looks fantastic Jamie. I reckon those lights look better Matt than they would in gloss. The 3rd brake light removal is a nice subtle touch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob_Mitchell Posted December 18, 2011 Share Posted December 18, 2011 Not a fan of 3rd brake light removals but each to there own, plus i liked the carbon logo on the wings ha ha. BUT STILL! i love this car to bits, nice job by baldy too, he is a good painter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JamieP Posted December 18, 2011 Author Share Posted December 18, 2011 i like them,i was considering them myself but you beat me to 'em I dont think they would fit a stock body mate, Amir had his arches modded, i had to cut about 20mm off the bottom of my side pod to get them on, only about 5mm clearance now, MT's seem a lot bigger than my BFG's was in the same tyres specs, BFG's went on easy. http://i30.photobucket.com/albums/c338/jamie450x/0bc2fbd4.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Callaway Motorsport Posted January 2, 2012 Share Posted January 2, 2012 What rear brake setup do you have on it at the moment jamie? Didn't think the UK rear setup fits with the 15's do they? Do you have the Jap spec rear calipers and discs on it to make them fit? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_Shane_ Posted January 2, 2012 Share Posted January 2, 2012 do you not get any hassle from the police regarding no working front headlights ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Abz Posted January 2, 2012 Share Posted January 2, 2012 do you not get any hassle from the police regarding no working front headlights ? If his driving during the day then he should will be fine, they won't hassle him I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SupraAyf Posted January 2, 2012 Share Posted January 2, 2012 Corrrr! I like the look of that. I could only imagine that thing pulling up next to a fast car at the traffic lights. I reckon people would think a few times before attempting a challenge. Great pics BTW. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
