    just stumbled across this thread. Awesome work matey. Love the mods you have done too. you have improved the car heaps.

    Sweet seats too

    Did you have any trouble fitting the steelies with the 312mm brakes? What were the brakes off? I ask cos I have the same size but dont know what they came off and they look identical to yours buddy. Also planning to down size to 16" rims but didnt knwo if they would clear the brakes.


    Keep up the great work mate
