Thought some of you Q45 guys might like to see these rims on my 96 I30. I know the pics are not the best quality, sorry!
Some other radom pics of last weeks motor install and my new cattman headers.

Rims look nice and classy....
The car has never ran stronger. I don't know if it's the new motor or the headers or the combination of the two. My old motor was in great shape. I did a compression test a month before I blew it and it was at 180-185 psi in all cylinders....
I ran a 14.1 @ 99mph with a y-pipe, MEVI and JWT ECU on street tires. Since then I have added the Pathfinder throttle body, swaped the y-pipe for headers and now the new motor. I will also be getting drag radials very soon. I am looking for 13.8ish at 101mph or so. Just waiting for some cool Sept or Oct temps before I hit the track again.

My Q rims will pjw3n your Q rims!
Are you going to get gold spinners to match your gold wheels? :pface

Thanks! Just so you know I don't run very low 14's all the time. I have ran a 14.1 just one time and a hand full of 14.2's. Although I do see 98-99 mph traps often.
My 14.1 was with a 2.14 60' and 50 degree weather. On an average day I run 14.3-14.5
Just get the Q out there on a cold day and pull some great 60 foots and you will be there.
