Nice day, shiny new rims!
Sunday, April 23, 2006 3:56 PM
Hello all, it's been a while since I've posted pictures. The last time I posted them they looked like crap. But since I've got a new camera, and new rims, I decided I would post them for you all to see. Here they are:






Don't mind the tractor in the background.

Just bought some slotted and cross drilled rotors from the Gravanna GP, those should be here and on shortly. Future plans include an LS lip kit, painting my rusted to crap rotors a shiny black to match the rims, painted calipers to match the color of the car, CF OEM hood, and painted headlights and black corners.

As for the engine, my long term goal is to swap in a low mileage eco, get the GM supercharger, and get everything tuned and installed for UNDER 3.5-4K. Hopefully.. lol, we'll see what kinda deals I can get.

Comments and suggestions appreciated.

Blah, wish I had an edit button..

When I said I wanted to paint the ROTORS black, I actually ment the rusty drums in the rear. Sorry for the double post.

Rims are ADR SZ1.

And the tractor is actually an Allis-Chalmers WD-45. Not quite sure what year it is, but it's really old.

The wonderful world of ebay. :-) 400 shipped.

And yes, I know it needs dropped. Unfortunately the roads around here are about as redneck as they get. Potholes, un-even roads, dead animals littering the roads. I don't know if I wanna drop it just yet because of all these factors. If I do, it'll be a mild drop. Maybe 1.5" or so.

Hehe, actually your car was the one that I fell in love with when I first joined the site, and inspired me to start modding mine. I was gonna go with big chrome wheels like you have, but decided to go with the black/CF/Indigo Blue instead.

Thanks for the comments folks, keep 'em commin. :-)

Looks good, a drop will do it very nicely! GL with the motor build up! The 4 doors are really starting to come about. I think Phlat and I have boosted the 4door owners' moral a bit.

4 doors pwn. I got to thinking today, and I thought it might be cool to have lambo's on all 4 doors. I wonder how that would turn out, or even if it would work? Hmm.... :-)

I work on Wall Street, but didn't force you to take out a loan you couldn't afford.

LOL, ok man, I'll make you a deal. Once my shiny new rotors are installed I'll take some pic's with the tractor. It'll be a JBO first if I'm not mistaken...
