my ride...

[mugsee]

Nice rims. I've always had a soft spot for the NT03s.

Pity the weights are stuck on the outside of the rim though. Are you running stock lug nuts?

[03DC5R]

thanks mate, yeh i got the wheels balanced and took off the weights on the outside. will post up proper pics on mon if i get the chance.

na im they're not stock, they're extended lock nuts...looking into some rays long nuts in blue...

[DrTran]

thats good I hate when tire shops put those stupid wing weights instead of the sticker weights

[felixR]

did the weights scratch the rims?

they look awesome!

[daz]

Sweet looking rims. Nice specs!

Are you going to stay with the 235 at the front or go wider?

[air23box]

Car looks Awesome......RDC5 will envy you......he was going to get the same......

[45SET]

Silver, white rims, wingless... were have I heard all those before...

Looks very good man... and the CF mirrors look really good to... i may have to invest in some.

As for the rear rims, i'm running same (17x8 +35, 225/45/17) on my car, and its just tucking the tyre.

I haven't rolled my guards... just have about -2' camber... but i can't fit my pinky between tyre and guard

LOL, ey i think i went wingless first and at first i was going to powder coat the wheels matte black, but then white grew on me lol....might end up powdercoating them black down the road when i get bored with the look.

and as for the rear wheels, im on like 0 camber at the back now, maybe thats why they're scrubbing. im gonna roll the guards as a precaution, only costing me $60 bucks anyway lol.

Yes you went wingless first... but i went white and balla offset... but you beat me with offset now

Have you done anything about the number plate yet? or are you still running the big black box?

[03DC5R]

still have the big black box can u fabricate one like yours for me

[45SET]

I'll see what I can do. Because my dad has actually made one, he shouldn't have to measure anything up, and should just be able to work off the completed one I have.

I'll have a chat to him and see what we can do for you.

[03DC5R]

sounds good

just wondering, what did u do with the hole in the middle of the front bar?

[45SET]

Just a sec... are you talking about the middle mount or side mount number plate? If you are after the middle mount I ended up bending some bits of metal so it mounts on the original mounting mounts... if i still have them in the shed i could send them to you.

You'll have to get the hole boged up and resprayed... or just get a round silver sticker and cover it up.

Both my front bars had the holes taken our already (Both being one i got with the car, and the new one i have with the deleted grill.)

[03DC5R]

im talking about the side mount...might just stick the numberplate itself on the bumper and cover the hole with it...but then i'll have to drill two holes on my front bar.

Its amazing how simular silver masking take is to the DC5R silver...



I had to go drift spec for a couple of weeks when i took my wing off.

But I'll see if i still have those bits of metal and get back to you about it
