I know I've been on the hunt for wheels every day since I bought the car haha and the wheels I have now are the only bargains I could find haha .
I wish it was like America or Europe here in relation to cars and car things...

Thanks man
I think next I'll be getting the drivers side front finished up and all panels re fitted maybe this weekend

Their are a lot of car things over here, but everyone seems to know what they have

Why can't I find wheels that inexpensive around here :/

Awesome work man! Can't wait to see more progress!

[MattHatCat]

Well I think it will be a bit of everything but mostly a weekend fun thing, you know.
I mean I don't need it for transportation purposes so I'll just drive it around the mountains and to meets and what not, but I'll definitely try my hand at drifting.it will be my first proper rwd car so I'll probably kill it first go ha!
Thanks for the love man

Awesome that you're taking on this project, man! Subscribed! Love how it's going. Which direction are you taking this in? Drift, or a clean street car?

[MattHatCat]

I've considered wrinkle! but i think I'd rather powder coat for longevity ?

Post a pic of your wrinkle rim and try convince me !

GIVE ME THOSE LIPS PLZZZZZ FUARK!!!

My centres are crinkle coated. They look perdy. But need redoing

[MattHatCat]

need help choosing a wheel clour for the 05's,
the lips will stay polished, but im thinking maybe a bronze colour. a bit like this...

probably not that dark..
i dont like dark centers..

show me what you got!

[MattHatCat]

loving your choice in wheels, i to have equip 05s and advans,

Good choice man
I loved the 05's when I first got them and now I think I love the advan's more!
Idk I can't wait to haven't 05's on though.

Thanks guys
Yeah the rust is a pretty common issue with the aus del r31s not so much on the imports but this one had it pretty bad
There is still a bit more rust to remove but I'm getting there


Btw all the steelies are sold
I don't know if I made that clear haha
All I have now is the set of equip 05's which are stripped apart awaiting re-furb , the pair of advan's and a set of shitty 15's for spirited driving and cheapness haha
Thanks for the love guys
It will be a slow journey

[dejongeyanj]

good work! Steelies look ace!

[Myles Weaver]

Nice I love r31. lack of wheels lol

Am I the only one whos not surprised about the rust? Thats a common issue isnt it?
Try considering the rust as a natural weight loosing. Then theres no problem to solve. LOL
