Havard Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 Can't wait to see this Adam. I was hoping you were going to say "blended" though. It's a great looking car as it is, one of the best at JAE. H. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jellybean Posted February 21, 2012 Share Posted February 21, 2012 In it for pics , but I taught you car was the nicest white Supra I seen when it came in from Japan; the bomex kit and wheels are awesome. Cant believe you have changed the car so much Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Whiffin Posted February 22, 2012 Share Posted February 22, 2012 Looking forward to seeing this, what are you doing about the wheels? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
add heywood Posted February 22, 2012 Author Share Posted February 22, 2012 Looking forward to seeing this, what are you doing about the wheels? Ideally I want new wheels. I have 3 options... 1) Drive around with 25mm spacers on the front and 45 mm on the back. Obviously not ideal, but this is what I will probably have to do for he first month or so until I can get a bit of cash together. 2) Buy new wheels. Those ones Jurgen posted up the other day can be had in Supra fitment and the offset I would need for £3500. Although I love the wheels on the car at the minute, it is what makes the car stand out so much and I wouldn't really want to get rid for wheels that I don't like, just so they were the right offset. I could probably sell my wheels for £1800 - £2000 as they are now discontiniued in Japan... 3) I have found that they did the 19" GT-V 10.5J in a -15 offset or -5 which should give and extra 51mm or 41mm width on the rear. If I could get my hands on a set for the rear I wouldn't really mind running 25mm spacers on the front, as I don't really arse the car around corners (it scares me lol), just in a straight line. As said above though they have been discontinued so have been emailing different wheel places to see if they have the right offset in them. I could then sell the rears for a couple of hundred quid each to recoup some money. They cost about £600 per rim so would cost £1200+ to get the rears right. I'm a fussy bugger when it comes to wheels though so will have to think about all options... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

add heywood Posted February 22, 2012 Author Share Posted February 22, 2012 I like the GT-04... Think they do my offsets that I need aswell. Kit is 30mm wider at the front and 50mm at the rear. Current offsets are - Fronts - 9.5J +40 and Rears - 10.5J +36... Thinking I would need fronts 10j +15, rears 11.5j 0 or 12j +5. What do you think of 20" wheels on a supra...? I know handling isn't great but the car only goes fast in a straight line. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
add heywood Posted February 22, 2012 Author Share Posted February 22, 2012 With the price table/size/offset table that comes up when you click on the wheel, what is the difference between normal, medium and hyper disk? Also what is the 83mm 96mm 109mm 122mm? Is that the size of the dish showing...? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamesy Posted February 22, 2012 Share Posted February 22, 2012 yeah thats the dish mate ideally you want the biggest brake clearance option on the fronts, and the BIGGEST rear dish option on the rears. I spent weeks on that SSR website when i choose my wheels as i wanted a lairy rear 5" dish Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
