    That looks really good, even with the Mk2 rims I liked!
    With the gear stick, you could always get a bit of rod the same diameter and have someone with access to some Tap & Dye sets cut some thread either end and just extend it that way... It would suit the rat look if that's what you are going for...

    I have quite a few Mk1s coming out my rear, and haven't started on one yet mate, you're doing a top job, keep it up! Now to find some doors for my 3-door....

    thanks mate. yeah i liked the steelies too.

    i got some wheels redrilled for my silvia and spoke to the guy about getting the ssrs widended.. will probably cost about $190 per wheel... or if the centre piece bolt pattern is the same as bbs or simmonds i can get new inner and outer hoops and step up to 15 inch with custom offset. didn't even ask for a price on that... need to check out the bolt pattern on a bbs wheel. i'd love to fill the rear wheel arches a bit more.

    The meshies you got for your S13, did you consider selling them to an old-school Mazda guy, and buying another set? You probably could've even made money that way, because there's so few good wheels around in 4x110.

    Nah not really. A mate and I are building a track car, it's an ma61 celica/supra so they'll fit that if they don't fit the s13. That said I'm still going to try and make them fi the s13.

    This is what where on about btw:

    Mmm, needs some spacers for sure....

    You might get around that with a guard pump/pull? Looks achievable.
