Looks good bud. I have been tossing up the idea of running the 18" 350Z track wheels myself. They are kind of big on the S13, but I have access to a set (BlueZ33, he's on this forum) and might try it when the 5 lug comes along.
I will most likely go 17" Rega EVO's since those track wheels are still pricey, even on ebay. Even for the extra $ I think the EVO's are worth it.
Again, yours does look very sweet my friend! After looking at the pic you posted... nothing more than 17's are really needed, unless you need to clear the huge brakes for your 700rwhp RB26 powered S13 beast.

Yes, I love the EVO's! I always have to tell myself not to break down and get the "deals"... I'm holding out for the EVO's.
No, I'm going with a mild/wild approach on this RB. I am running a 20... building her to make ~400rwhp and rev to the sky. This project is geared toward the engineering involved in making this kind of motor/chassis setup, and not so much a power per dollar standpoint. I know motors better than suspension/chassis, but I am learning quickly and can hold my own with the latter. Z32 brakes or Z32 aftermarket options should work just fine for my project.
A buddy of mine is a chassis engineer, and we are developing some ideas for my car as I go. He is more focused on builing his car (he's building a chassis from the ground up... all hand built), but lends me an ear and opinion from time to time. I'm was thrilled to find out he was interested in my project. We will see...
