            Hi guys,
            so after about two weeks of waiting on Shak's ultra busy schedule my regas finally arrived!

            I literally waited about 6 months to find the right specs, model and price. Then one day, I saw someone on JDM wheels for sale FB group selling Regas
            and it turned out to be Shak.
            I was firm on what I wanted. They had to be EVOs in CW with 17x9+18/22 offset. He had just what I wanted!

            There was a few that I came across before Shak's but they all had ridiculous prices (MPs, weaker specs and no tyres) asking for an arm and a leg making me sway away from the wheels
            and continue looking.

            But now I've got them! Heres some pics:




            poke is real


            new rays lug nuts and valve caps

            I'm really happy with how they fit right now but I'm in dire need of an alignment and lots of camber. I'd also like to get the back lowered as it kinda looks like a monster truck from the back.
            But to lower the back, I'll need to have the guards rolled and run 2.5 ish to 3.0 camber otherwise I'll have clearance issues which I'll get sorted hopefully this Saturday!

            Working Mon-Sat every week is a killer.

            Finally,
            while waiting for my Regas come in, I went to OTR in springvale to get my clutch, brakeline, brakefluid and tie rod ends changed. I thought I may aswell because I plan on doing a track day real soon
            and would prefer not to be breaking/clutching in 10 year old lines.

            For the tie rod ends, they had to be replaced because they were damaged by a sleepy mechanic. But due to not being able to get an alignment car feels extremely sluggish and out of line. After observing the car from the front,
            it looks like it's toeing out really badly. May be the reason to my issues! Again, hopefully I have time to get it sorted this Saturday.

            Time to save for a respray..

            That's all for now.

            Thanks for reading

                  How much did your Tie Rod Ends cost? Did you get OEM replacement?
