    We never got that body style in the US. It was available in Europe though..,

    Yeah sadly those only come in 17x7 et42. I wanted 18x8 so made the switch. I personally love how good the bright silver looks.

    I may return to gold wheels in the future, though if that's to happen it will most likely be as the centre to a 3 piece wheel.

    Surprised I missed this photo in my original post. This one shows the difference in height in the rear since I took a ring out of the adjusters.

    This weekend I actually swapped out my flex pipe for a nice new 2.5" Stainless Steel version from Central Florida Motorsports to fix my crappy blown flex. I had forgotten just how good the SVT exhaust note was stock!

    I shall need to get some new photos, took an adjuster ring out the rear and got new tyres and alignment.

    Will be picking up a seibon bonnet next week most likely and it shall be on shortly thereafter.

    For those interested I will be down at StanceWars Las Vegas, so feel free to say hi! I am looking for a few feature cars to shoot while in town so if you're worthy I'm interested!!!

    Car is still with me!

    Just been dealing with some battery problems and then a coolant hose exploding recently.

    Thinking about heading out to StanceWars Vegas on April 1st. Also debating picking up a different set of wheels before then...

    I only found out after I bought one hahaha. At least parts are cheap(except for zx3 doors, those are hard to find ). My rally car project has kind of stalled out at $100 racing seats, exhaust, projector lights and dirt tires
