nothing special. pics are of shite quality as they were taken with my handycam.

stock under the bonnet (just the way I like it). it's a 1989 model.

landed in sydney wednesday last week. saw it at mate's workshop. i had to have it. bought it by saturday. woohoo. will get some good pics of it looking all schmick soonish.

definitely needs some nice large white rims. GTS2 rims would look cool but not gonna find a set of em anywhere soon. anyway i'll open up the wallet for this baby later on down the track. keep ya posted :D

G'day Mark.

I checked out the car last week.....very noice indeed. Schweeeeet! I got a little excited actually and there's a bit of a clean-up job to do on the right-front guard. :Oops:

I reckon forget about the rims-if you're on a budget like me then you'll spend every cent on things that make the car go faster (and beer of course). Bigger rims will do bugger all for performance (often worse) and tyres will be harder to find and more expensive.

Besides, I reckon the rims that are on it look great!

Cheers,

Ben

PS: Great day on Saturday!

The nice people at Rays (and Enkei, et al) have solved this problem by producing forged monoblocks. No you can not only bling your car with some nice phat wheels, but they slash unsprung weight while increase your contact patch :(
