Thanks for the info justin. Probably looking at about $5000 all up if your were to wrap them nicely. Would love to get them or Te37's but would rather spend that sort of money on performance. Its a pitty the wheels we have don't look better because their performance is great. What do you think of drift R? Can get them in 18x9 with 265/35 all up for $2600

Cheers Ben. Yup. TE37's are my 2nd choice. ROH? No way! Just not Japanese now is it? The ROH DRIFT-R is actually very similar, or is it exactly the same... except for the name and centre cap... as their Modena wheel? I think ROH are having all of us on.

I just got my set last month they are pure porn. I doubt you'd find a second hand pair as I had a good look although mine are 18x9.5Js and 18x8.5J's. I paid $1050 per rim. $4200 delivered via qantas air freigh as far as I could tell!!! (there were stickers on the box) How cheap is that, I worked out he must of made olny around $50 per! The TE37's are ok but they were similar price to the LM GT-4's.

So Adz.. how did you get your rims exactly? Through which people? Through what site?

Here's the 1st car I posted... the atest pic of it online. He has dumped his Nismo wheels for bigger wheels. I have seen them before, multispoke bronze.. volk I think? And he's added the list of stickers down the side like the Gran Turismo version.. also he's blackened out the rear 3/4 window.. nice touches!

Well I went through Evo-R in Clayton, Melbourne. I honestly thought they would be the most espensive of the lot but it turned out to be the cheapest. no one could bring them in coz of the duty and freight. They'd just be to expensive. I think the closest quote I got was $1495 per rim! These were the first set he'd brought in so I dunno about another saet on the same price. You could try though! As said before the nearest set is the Volk TE37's in bronze though they are a 6 spoke not a five and the spokes dont taper like the the LM's and they are a 6 spoke not a 5!

    • You are perhaps suggesting that it is not a super car? Well....it's not an AU.
    • Dropped the MX5 of this morning to get the hardtop colour matched and some PDR done, they are also going to give it a buff to remove some "stubborn" swirl marks and light scratches in the clear coat Over the last few months the poor little thing has copped some shopping centre car park abuse, I try to not park in them, but hitting Westfield's a few times over the last few months has taken its toll, nothing really bad, but enough of a trigger for a "while we're in there" thingie  Once it's back and all the one colour, with a few dents and mark's removed I'll give some of these products a go and see what they're like  
    • A locally delivered Infiniti have remote start installed but don't come with the remote start key. You need a new remote start key and they just need it programed. And this is different to making/programing a new key that just starts the car.  
    • Cheers, and cheers for sharing so much of the build and also sharing the glimpse of what turns out to bring a lot of us poor decision makers together haha.  I do recommend learning more about how to manage it, if not considering getting a  formal diagnosis.  The discussion with the psychiatrist I got my diagnosis through was quite eye opening, things I'd not even considered to be ADHD related and hadn't mentioned were things she asked about out of the blue and were common themes with people with my flavour of ADHD.   It's not a label for people who are hyperactive and ill-attentive, there's more to it than that and some of it can be much more challenging or damaging - though there are of course two sides to the thing, and a lot of the stuff we have to go through and work on to live with it make us effectively "better" at other things as well. Aside from the fact that there is some argument I could have a bit of ASD seasoning in there (came up during the diagnosis, and neurodiverse things seem to not stay as a cookie cut) I suspect you need to learn more about ADHD if you are puzzled about how hyperfocus could possibly apply.  I *do* personally use "superpower" with quotes deliberately, but it's 100% an ADHD thing due to the exact reason that lack of focus is also an ADHD thing... Loosely speaking the inattentive side of ADHD isn't the inability to focus, it's the inability to control where the focus goes.  Not being able to sleep because brain is more interested in thinking about a stupid thing I said to a girl I liked 30 years ago, not being able to focus on work because my brain is more keen on putting together the torque management strategy we're going to try out with a drag car next weekend, not being able to focus on a conversation with someone I WANT to listen to and respect because there is a flickering light in my peripheral vision.    If I could just stop work and build the torque management setup right there and then I'd not hear anything else until it was done.
