The quest for meaty fitments and fasts. In a fwd hatch... wut?

[Thom]

looks sick man. what wheels are those and whats the specs? thanks

nevermind they look like equip 05

Equip 05 17x8+35&9+35 I think Im not sure. Barrels are from another set of wheels

[Thom]

Gotta relip to smaller specs now -_- almost got defected..

[Thom]

Got new tires. Wheels are being taken apart to make x7x8. Ordered a new clutch for the 4G94. Keen for that to go in.

[Thom]

Finally a cool photo before wheels come off.
My friend took this while driving. I think she did well.

[Thom]

WHeels still away :'(

Rather then lower it or anything. I side swipped a cow. Damage isnt super bad. Just need a new quarter/door and the rear quarter need some pulling.

Also bought a new drivers seat

dang I almost took out my front end but luckily swerved to miss a monster wombat the other night

Super impressed with the whole execution and styling direction this is headed in...not to mention its fitted excellently for such a relatively quick build...and its still got more to come it seems.

I love how 17s fill out your guards...thats how 18's would fill out mine and this just makes me want to step up to 18s again now haha

I've almost hit a few smaller things on mountain runs. But the cow. Wut. I blinked and it was in the lane... Within 10 seconds of me smashing into its head it was gone. So mad.

Thanks man. Trying to smash it out so I can either boost this bitch or by a nissan and daily this.

Yea 17's look baller. But going away from "stance". I cant drive it, And police seem to have the opinion lip hanging out the guard is bad. So ill use baller wheels in bitch sizes on track and stuffs.


Do it if it fits. I actually like the focus when its done tastefully. But faaark I want your panasports!!! So nice!

Only in Australia.

Yup... Everything is why we can't have nice things :'(

Got my wheerlz back. Ended up changing the barrels from the 8's to the 7s and the 7's to the 8's so it ends up being 17x7.5 all round annd no idea on the offset. But 1 pair has more dish the the other.

Before and after as such.. Litterally cleaned them and sprayed some gunmetal colour over the crinkle coat. Turned out ok I think.



Annnnd all done. Wheels are bolted together with black bolts. sealing them tomorrow night. RSR's wensday hopefully.






Also found a pair of centre caps but they are early equip caps I think. But better then none for now.

[Thom]

Found some slightly different caps from some dude. Painted em. Hammered them in. Resealed wheels. Hope it sets for tomorrow.

[Thom]

Engine out. Should be in the mirage in a week or 2. Hopefully after next weekend..

[Thom]

Small part of the turbo puzzle but its a start. Was told its a ball bearing t28. Either way it was cheap.

[Thom]

Borrowed some wheels to mount my rsr's too. I quite like them.

[sleeps]

EVO's?

[Thom]

Yea brah. Fit mint actually. Been lucky so far with 17in wheels. They have both fit mint and look rad.
