This is what she looked like when I just bought her:

And here she is after being painted (Bayside Blue from the R34 skyline):

Now I need to lower it and get wheels, either sr20 or rb25 :D . Also, the interior is all black, with the exception of the seats. See my imagestation album for more pics:http://www.imagestation.com/album/index ... 4290313147

What do you all think?

Black240: Thanks. I promised the guy I wouldn't tell anyone :( . I did, however, sand the entire car so he gave me a great deal since it elped him out.

yeswepromise: Thanks. The supra is too slow :D . That's my dad's car. I would have put more money into that car if I didn't find my current 240.

You all respond very quicklyJohann

Thanks, I love the evil monkey who wasn't always evil in your avatar. Anyone know of any cheap 4 lug wheels that look good? If not, I'll just hold off for some Buddy Club wheels so I can get some wide rear wheels. I'm thinking gun metal with polished lip.

G20 premium(the alloys) wheels. They look just like stock 180sx alloys. http://www.canadiandriver.com/...2.jpg

I bet you can get them for around 300 too.

so... they are cheap and well made and probaly light not to mention good looking, when he(you) gets money you can upgrade to something else.

Why do you want 10 inches anyway?

Where did you get 10" from? I was thinking more along the lines of 8.5 to 9

Thanks, Johann

Everyone loves the evil monkey:D

Anyway, I kind of like the Tenzo R5s, they looks pretty nice, might want to look at them...

A lot of people have aftermarket rims, so therefore some of them should of had the alloys previously and some of them stll should have them. Find a few people with pics in their signature or whatever and then email them would be my suggestion.

Me first! I want those too.

Just until I can afford the buddy club racing IIhttp://www.autoimaging.com/sho...at=74Anyone know if 17s (7.5 or 8 in front and 8.5 or 9 in rear) will clear front z brakes and an eibach prokit. Also what offset would work Front and Rear. Either gunmetallic/polished or hypergold/polished

Johann

*EDIT* Just realized the Buddy clubs don't come in 1/2 inch increments. So I guess they would have to be 7 maybe 8 in front and 9 in the back.
