Low offset wheels would work the same way

Thanks guys, i had seen the Euro Spec conversion hubs, Bahn Brenner do them and ECS do several conversion kits too.
I'm only after the 5x100 for my new wheels, not too bothered by brakes at this stage. I was just thinking it may work out cheaper than getting converted hubs as the postage costs are shocking !!

I've also seen people just use VR hubs and outer CV's, then redrill the 4x100 brake discs, thats another option........

You should bore the block to 82.5.... I know a guy with a good set of 82.5 pistons you could get at a price...

Yeah man, sitting here on my bedroom floor looking sexy lol. I have been too busy to find out a shipping cost to NZ for an interested buyer.

the car's now symmetrically painted...? hahaha

wait that's a lie. the rust through the roof isn't symmetric..

so all my GAP stuff arrived. and for some reason i got a whole bunch of vr6 gasket shizzle. dont ask why, unless you wanna pm me and buy em.

but otherwise, the clutch is nice and meaty, the discs are shiny, the pressure plate is....pressure platey.. ? i cant wait to get my motor back!!! arrghh.

i dont need em just yet, and they'll also be too high compression if i ever build a 16v again.

... not that i'm actually doing any motor work myself cause i'm a n00b.

i'll add some pics later this week when i dont have 80 000 assignments/tests in the next 48 hours.

Whats the latest on the engine build up jay jay? I built a 1.9l 8v with the works years back, it was originally in preenys mk1 with everything done to it on twin 40mm down draft webbers instead of injection. It was fast for its day aswell, knocking off a VS clubsport by a nose out at the local drag strip. What ever power you eventually make it will be great fun to drive for sure! best of luck with it
