Where do you get these crazy ideas?

Get my tyres on tomorrow, just about to torque the shit out of shit now

[sCrapp]

Theyre not crazy... Wait for it... Theres some logic here somewhere.....

The overall diameter of the wheel and tyre at the moment are basically the same as the radius of the arches, and i dont want to have a wheel tyre combo that is too small for it... Even if it does make it lower?
This way... I can get lower profile tyres (that i wanted) and have wheels that fitba little more flush with the outside of the arch (custom et)

The other reason was that the photoshop i put up earlier had slightly bigger than 19" wheels on it, and i thought it looked nice...

[ajk]

fuck that, run 17's on the floor

Edition 38 is so so shit now, i ask if cl half arch moulding will fit with the bumpstrips on my doors & where i could get them. and all you get is "the internet is where i buy my mk2 stuff from" or one word answers "ebay" gtfo. ebay has none and i don't know if they fit to start with!!!!!!!!!!

Okay next car options, we're talking after summer time - as much as it will pain me i think i've had enough of the mk2.
I might keep it, due to the matter i have spent so much on it. first real modded car etc & it's a good car really.

If i sell it i would hope to get 1.5k - 2k for it, i don't know if i would but i think it's worth that once the dent is removed and i get the mouldings back. yes no? honest thoughts!

so end of summer, i have ALWAYS wanted an e21 mmmmmm so good, but they are old and it's not like im not used to having heating and all mod cons so no worries on that account. but id have to go air.
One because i park next to josh every day and it bugs the hell out of me how high i am static when he's laying frame. Two because im bored of my back breaking BUT this would be above the 3-4k mark i could afford & i have no idea about realibilty of them prone to rust etc etc.

The other option is to get a mx5, Girly but a shit load of fun & look awesome on stupidly adressive ets and a tiny drop, with the plus of a soft top & heating etc

OR i could get mk3 golf vr6 and just strip the living shit out of it, but then it's just another mk3. ERGHHHHHHHHHH

then i'd miss my mk2. I wish i would win the lottery then i could own all these and moreeeeeeeeee i'm in a ranting mood today.

[sCrapp]

e21 ftw.

You should be able to get an e21 for less than 3-4k, unless you HAVE to get a 323I...then theyre very rare.., but have twin pipes...and awesomeness as standard. But for cruising, you only really need the basics.

I do think mazda Mx-5's mk1's look great with aggressive stance, and hard top, but you have to do it right, whereas, with e21's you look good all the time, as long as you dont stick bits on it

stick to old cars, so that you dont get used to the mod cons, its the way to stay.

I love old cars that dont work right.... i dont know why.. theres just so much character to them...

[ajk]

oh yeah i could pick one up for less than 2k, but with air it would get to about 3ish then rims 4k but it would be sweeet. never seen an e21 on air? who wants andy points for finding me pictures

[sCrapp]

bout it.
looks shit with those wheels IMO

cant really tell if its photoshopped or not.. :s

[ajk]

Eerghhhh wheel fail. Take 5 Andy points and enjoy them.
