Just bought a '79 450sel merc, don't suppose anyone knows what type of rims (18, 19 or 20) would fit on them or know of any good pics? Bit of a side project, mix a bit of old and new together perhaps...

Hmmm time for the next purchase... The choices are...

R34 GT25T

S15 Spec R or a Spec S GT

RX7 FD Bathurst R

Decisions need to be made....

Upgrading from the 33?

Personally i would prefer RX7 out of all them. Pity i know nothing about them, just like the way the look and sound.

FD is close to GTR money. Other two can be had reasonably cheap now.
Unless your 33 has all the fruit. i would just sell it and buy one already made for track work. There was one with a full cage and GT3037 turbo on my105 for 10k. Would be perfect for track work.

Well I went a different route and got an RX8...

I know I know.... It does not have a turbo but it is just for a daily drive.

Full engine rebuild was completed by mildrens recently with a lot of work done... It is one clean car :)

    • Yes, I know🙄 but the sequential is not in my budget... don't want to reduce power neither, so looks like I'm stuck in the rabbit hole🤣
    • You’ll be very upset when you bust that too not to mention the gearing totally sucks. Don’t do it.
    • Is the panel filter one that is oiled? Have you ever cleaned or touched the AFM?
    • So.... the K&N air box thingo was too big, ended up gifting it to a mate, well, by gifting it he actually supplied food and beer at the pub,  which was nice, as it will not sit on a shelf in the garage for the next 10 years I did trim up some of the existing stuff to neaten it all up and gave it some wrinkle paint, unfortunately it currently has a used and abused mish mash of different types of hose clamps, 4 big fat T bolt type (shit), and a few normal clamps of vairing sizes and brands, but..... only until the 6 constant tension black worm clamps that I ordered from EFI solutions turn up next week Currently the current hose clamps are triggering me hard, LOL Is this the final version, probably not, I really want just 2 silicone pieces, a straight bit of silicone from the filter to the MAF is easy and will happen as soon as I head into Just Jap tomorrow, the problematic part is a 30° silicone bend from the MAF to the TB that I can connect the engine breather from the head, I found that there are bulk head fittings for boat bilge pumps that should work, but until I can get a 30° silicone bend the alloy pipe, and the 11ty thousand hose clamps, are there for the foreseeable future 4 hose clamps are golden, 6 are grudgingly acceptable, the 8 currently holding it all together is just taking the piss    I've also ordered 60 more retaining wall blocks for the front yard, I mis-gonculated the height that was required to get above the base of the Photinia's (red robin's) that are the hedge behind the front fence, currently it is 2 blocks high, and about 1/2 a block short, so going 3 blocks high will be above the base of the red robin's, and allow some room for mulch
