Seriously though...

Color choice, be it for wheels, interior, body, whatever, should be entirely up to you... but having said that, I think gold wheels look crap... even on the Impreza/Kia WRX twins...

Bronze on the other hand, especially bronze TE37's, are the mutt's nuts.:burnout:

Hey Rezz,

Thanks for the pics - I know lots of people think gold wheels look crap - that's why you can't buy them easily new these days.

I just had the idea - and I didn't know what it would look like.

So thanks for the Pics

As for my opinion - the jury is still out !

Cheers,

Rezz, by god I wish there were australian companies that made wheels with dish like that - you can keep the front bar though:D

Steve, why don't you present ROH or somebody with a deep dish design? They might just go there.... Oz made Japanese style wheels - for Aussies who are fed up with this...

Well when I was looking for a set of wheels, I think I rang up several wheel places (ROH, Simmons, ANZ, etc.....) and I only found one wheel design that I liked that had even a close resemblance to dish as most of the places only had a couple of offsets to suit skyline and 17x8x9, unless I went for a custom made 3 piece :( - buying direct from japan would have been cheaper.

I don't know why - but I think I like gold wheel on a silver car.... It's a bit different I spose......

I think I'll have to go search some other colours as a comparison. Maybe Black or White .....

I dunno - It's hard to choose wheels hey ?

    • Hi, i’m making a rb25det coil loom for Vag short coil. Can anybody tell me which Ecu signal wire belong to coil number 1 and 2,3,4,5,6? The connecting switch in above pic is 8 wire i think white is for +12v and black for earth.
    • Was there ever a model of the Stagea m35 that didnt have a badge on the grill? I thought I saw that somewhere, some aero edition or something? I cant find it again? davemoto
    • Its a 2002 vr-x four VQ25DET, silver. Coil overs, lowered, polished alloys and sport exhaust. Bit of a project, was sitting in a shed for a while but runs and drives great.
    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
