sweet, just sweet. You're the first guy I've seen who did looks before performance and still get mad respect. Goes to show that no mater what your approach o car modding, when it's done right, it shows and people recognise it.

I salute you sir.

That is cuz he spent an arm and a leg, and even though not my style, selected parts from the best of the best. No fakie Wings West for BomexS13! But you better have one hell of a motor planned. I'm talking 400hp SR or RB25 or I am sooooooooooo calling you a ricer

My friend talked me into getting an RB25 . Off course I have to do some research first how much everything will cost me in the end. MOtor alone is aorund 3G's. Also teh adapter kit which cost 1100, but we'll see

Bomexs13, As someone who is now at the tail end of an RB25 swap into an s13, I have to say that you've made the right decision BUT you need to understand the tremendous costs associated with doing the swap RIGHT! I budgeted $5000 for the whole thing and I'm already at about $6500 and I didn't even upgrade the turbo. Small **** adds up quickly so be prepared to spend quite a bit more than you think it will cost you! I just want to make sure you go in with your eyes (and you wallet) wide open.

I'd do it again in a heartbeat though . The 25 just sounds too damn good

Those wheels look ridiculously sweet too! Will they fit under your flares?

yea it just a blue plastic film thing that covers the edges to avoid being scratched. I'll take it off when the tires are installed.

That's a Pirelli tire from 1997. No road-going car is driving on tires from 1997. Especially not on Pirelli tires.

I work in the tire industry and I have a keen eye for DOT codes(on the sidewall in plain view) I also have a good screen on my laptop.Pirelli for years has been using a lettering and number font all their own.Reading the DOT# and knowing that style of sidewall I am able identify the tire.

BOMEX: Still I'm curious about pricing and source for the original wheels in question.
