The offsets suck ***, but its nothing a 15 mm spacer can't fix.

If I remember correctly the RB's come in much better offsets, good sizes, and imho look a whole crap ton better than the boosts.

Look into the rota D2, they have good sizes and have awesome offsets for a 240.

[HurryupandrunS13]

Sweet guys. I got those tire sizes, and my buddy goes back to work on Tuesday I beleive, so I will check ASAP! He works for a subsidary(sp?) of Firestone so he carries Falkens, Yokohamas, and Fuzions (all in select sizes). Or I could get you some house tires.......... NOT!!

[scs13]

so we get a sweet deal or something?

[HurryupandrunS13]

Hopefully man. I can't promise anything, but he usually get's em between 20-30% below retail. They will still be expensive because they're good, lo-pro tires. Just not outrageous. It's a good enough discount that you won't mind burning them off every once in a while.

I'll look into em. I believe I'm goin to get a set of the RB's, though. My check for this period is gonna be hella good; worked 26hours this past weekend.

About to head to Carguts in Blacksburg and pick up a few things.. that place is ****in awesome.. they got a few S13s( that I know of ) if anyone needs any parts and the dudes there are pretty chill, I'm sure they have S14 chassis' there as well, http://www.carguts.com/

Sounds like a deal, with the tires. Keep us updated, Hurry.

[scs13]

oh i was jw man. that would be awesome though, my tires are super bald so i need to get some asap. just lmk man and thanks.

hmm, i wonder if they have any s14 seats for cheap. i need seats ultra hard, the ones im using from the fastback have metal showing. im sure theres a bunch of other random stuff i need too, ill just have to think of it.

[rps13srsc]

i want the rota rb's for my coupe they are sexy

[Black on Gold]

still expensive wes?

i paid 109 (i think) for my 225/40/18's and 139 for my 245/40/18's.

When are you going to Carguts? I need to ride up there with you or something and check it out. Wondering if they have any Z32's up there. Doubt it but it would be nice

[KA24Carnage]

I haven't even looked into tires, quite yet. I'll prolly either go through Hurry's hook up or go to Discount Tire and see what they got. I can get those RB's for $575(16x7)-$600(16x8) shipped, just working a few more kinks ( 5spd swap, mostly >:] ) out of the car before I get another tire/wheel set-up.

59hours on my paycheck so far, can't wait to see what the total is next Wednesday.

[scs13]

what kind of tires did you get and where did you get them from?

[KA24Carnage]

If you are looking for some Z32 ****, http://www.car-part.com/noninterchange.htm is your best bet.. gives you a list of the parts you queried for and it gives the cost, description of the part and location of the part and how many miles away it is from your area code.

[Black on Gold]

Jordan, if your asking me i got Falken Ziex's i got them from Discount Tire which is the best priced and the cleanest shop. They do good work there (atleast the one in RH)

[KA24Carnage]

Tonight sucked.. me and one of the Honda homies were screaming down one of the roads in Rock Hill ( India Hook for you Rock Hillians ) doing 65-70 in a 35mph zone, swerving in and out of lanes, through cars, etc.. on our way to smoke a J in the local dark park and out pops a cop from out of nowhere, pulls both of us over and begins to complain about him having to get up to 70mph to pull us over and states that he had been following us for quite some time so.. we end up with a $440(before court) citation and.. 6 points off of our licenses.

Cops suck, plain and simple. After the old cop pulled us over finally, we had about 4 or 5 more cop cars show up to make sure we didn't whip our trusty lug wrenches out and begin to beat the old man un-concious, the pretentious bastard..

But, we both learned something.. we now have to drive like old hags around Rock Hill, for a little bit. I'm just glad we didn't get our **** searched.

Anyway, how was everyone else's night?

btw, any of you got any insight into **** like this? It's my first ticket and.. I've honestly never stepped foot into a courtroom to be sentenced for such a crime. Any input would be hella appreciated.

Later fellas

[HurryupandrunS13]

WOW!!! That sucks! My buddy just got pulled Monday night for 52 in a 35, and got bagged for a quarter of some DIGGITY! ****ing cops and their vendettas.... Hey if you make it up here in July, I'll have one rolled ready for ya, sorry for the ticket.

[KA24Carnage]

Yeah, **** sucks but.. we should just have a swap meet of some dank in July lol Sounds good to me.

Hopefully whenever I go to court, they will cut the ticket in half or more.

[Black on Gold]

Smooth Wes...lol

I dont even speed anymore. I'd much rather spend the money on my car then paying a ticket

[scs13]

lesson: dont drive like a tool. swerving in and out of lanes and **** is retarded. you cant possibly be complaining about getting pulled over for that ****. that type of **** makes us all look bad. im tired of getting pulled over because of tools in imports driving like retards. i get popped for retarded **** because of it. save that type of **** for times when nobody is around. hell take your car up to the mountains if you wanna drive your car fast, thats what its made for.

anyways, go to court and plead guilty, dress nice, smile and hope you dont get a douchebag judge. they wont drop the points btw, you might get lucky and get it dropped to 100 dollars like mine have. hell my last ticket was 861 and he dropped it to nothing, best judge evarrrr.

[HurryupandrunS13]

Yeah, save that type of driving for our roads up here. And a swap meet sounds nice. The dank is around like civics with fart cans, always and anywhere.

[scs13]

any news on those tires man? i need to get off my *** and get some before i end up spending all my money on going turbo again

[KA24Carnage]

Thanks for the advice, Jordan.

Pat.. I may wait til Saturday when you are off to go to Blacksburg/Carguts, if you still wanna go; I gotta work that day but, we should still be able to go, depending on how late I get off. One of the chicks at work has been absent and.. she may be about to quit so, there may be a job position open for you, somewhat soon.

If anything, call me up friday afternoon since I'll be off that day.

[HurryupandrunS13]

Yea my buddy is checking on it for me right now.

[scs13]

awesome, thanks man.

[KA24Carnage]

Woot, heading to the paint booth tomorrow morning at 8:30AM.

[HurryupandrunS13]

Sweet! Sorry about the tire quotes, my buddys boss gave him the run around all weekend. I will post them ASAP!

[corky]

Hey guys, just thought I'd pop in and say hello. I'm the new owner of a 91 DOHC, and after popping the head gasket a few weeks later my roommates and I have essentially completed a 92 motor swap. We need to reconnect the driveshaft, hang the exhaust, put on some belts and hoses and we shoud be running tommorow. I've always wanted one of these damn rides, and i sure am glad they are "fairly" easy to work on.

If anyone from the asheville area wants to come hang out, drink some beers and make sure we don't **** anything up you are more than welcome. throw me a line at 828-505-9475. We should be running (though maybe not driving) tommorow afternoon.

[scs13]

sweet, i need them RULL bad and i dont wanna order some federals and wait on them if i can get some better tires for perhaps somewhere near the same price. that would be sweet. anyways, i appreciate it man. lmk what you can possibly get in a 225/45/17 and 245/40/17.

[HurryupandrunS13]

Hell yeah man, I will def hit you up man. I'm on the north side of the Ville, where are you stationed?

[HurryupandrunS13]

Falken ziex 912s 80 each for the 225s, 95 each for the 245s. 5 per wheel mount and balanced. Pretty pricey, but those were the consumer tire of the year in 07. Sorry if it ain't in your budget, but that's the best option I can get you.
