Your car looks tops all painted up mate, much better with the white bonnet. I reckon a set of low offset meshies and you'll be done.

Jap import spares have some awesome new wheels in stock, a new container just landed.

Yeah matsuri was awesome, shame it rained almost all day but i still had fun. first time in over 3 years so it took a while getting used to it again!!!

Thanks, yeah I've been looking through their meshies for sale lately, I think my favourites are the VS-XX and Stitches so far, but open to suggestions. Still have the S2 grille to put on, which I reckon would look good with silver meshies. I should really take one of my P1s off to check the size and offset...

I don't really get the whole meshies on cefiro thing.

Personally I think you should follow similar path to me, and get rims similar color to the body of the car.

Something 5 spoke.

Looks heaps tougher IMO.

Maybe some white TE37s or Drifteks.

Anyway on that note: Looks f**king awesome all painted up.

Why did they paint over the cornering lights on the front bar ??

the p1s look ok on your car (ok i personally hate p1s , but it's not my car) , i wouldn't stress too much , if your set on meshies though , go for a set with flat dish like the vs-xx (i.e the band is flat , not stepped like the other rims pictured) , make sure they're clean like the car (maybe even paint the center white for something different?, only if they aren't chrome , i have a lil thing for chome ) , and as much dish as it will handle (and maybe 18" if you can find them) front and rear and then , stance , stance makes a ceff as much as wheels do , look at kris's last pic ^^ for a reference :)

Thanks, yeah pretty happy with it looking a lot cleaner compared to when I first bought it. Not perfect, but it's an old car.

I do like 5 spokes, and had pondered Meisters as well...but I don't exactly have a lot of money to throw around. Not sure Drifteks would suit it. Not like it's a big rush to get everything at once anyways, tempting as it is.

Wasn't using the cornering lights and thought it would look less busy if they were painted the same as the rest of the bar.

please dont put drifteks on it

:laugh: Don't worry, I won't. ;)

I quite like the P1s really. Since I've only just recently recovered enough to start driving the Ceffy again and doing some mods, I've been getting a bit excited thinking about various options for appearance and power. I do like meshies on quite a few Jap cars I see. Stepped rims can look good, or a bit odd, depending on the car of course.

At the moment it's about as low as I would want to go without beaching it on anything higher than a $2 coin, have already scraped on small speed bumps a couple of times. Kris' Cef does have an awesome stance, but cops here would probably shoot you in the face for that combo of rims and ride height. :laugh:

I'll keep looking around at pics of various wheels and stuff anyway. But may go for some more fasts rather than expensive rims. Making 139rwkw on standard boost and tune at the moment with FMIC and exhaust.

looks like she's in good hands by the way its progressed. did you end up getting some lean air flow ratio's during dyno run if so care to state xx:xx ratio?

I'm not sure, I was really worn out after being at the workshop for a while taking photos, so didn't ask too many questions. I mainly just wanted to make sure it was running ok after only being started once between June 2010 and May 2011.

Here's the readout from the dyno run, I'm not smart enough to know exactly what all the details mean...

I do like TE37's or even low offset CR Kai's on Ceffy's but drift teks.... :yucky:

Im over seeing Ceffy's with urgays kits and drift teks.

Personally, meshies with dish & slammed.

i like the P1's on your car aswel they suit it, have a look at Works510's car aswel with p1's looks decent

if you want more stance pump the guards and put big f**k off tires on em to scare kids and shit

    • I wanted to try and preserve the front bumper as long as possible, they're not cheap and are made to order in Japan. Taking inspiration from my previous K11 Micra build where I made an undertray for the Impul bumper, I did the same for this BN Sports bumper but a little slimmed down.  This time round I only made a 'skid plate' (if that's the correct wording/term) for just the bumper surface area, the Micra version covered the gap like an undertray. Starting off with a sheet of mild steel approx. 0.9mm thick 4ft x 2ft in size. I traced around the bumper, cut it out and cleaned the edges. Luckily I was able to get two halves from one piece of metal In the video I installed it as is, but I've since then I've removed it to spray and add a rubber edging trim. The rubber trim is suitable for 1-2mm and it's a really nice tight fit. The bolts had to be loosened due to the plates being too tight against the bumper, the trim wouldn't push on I used some stainless M6 flat headed bolts for a flusher finish (rather than hex heads poking down), I believe this style fastener is used for furniture too incase you struggle to source some. The corner's are a little wider, but this may be an advantage incase I get close to bumping it  The front grill got some attention, finally getting round to repairing it. Upon removal one fixing pulled itself out of the plastic frame, one side is M8 that fixes inside of the frame, where as the other side is M5. Not knowing I could get replacements, I cut down an M8 bolt, threaded it inside the frame along with a decent amount of JB Weld.  The mesh was replaced to match the bumper. One hole on the bonnet/hood had to be drilled out to 8mm to accommodate the new stud, once the glue had set it could be refitted. I think the reason the grill was double meshed was to hide the horn/bonnet latch (which makes sense) but I much prefer it matching the bumper Bumper refitted and it's looking much better IMO The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bVZP35io9MA
    • The video for the servicing and fuel filter change can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uLJ65pmQt44 One of the main jobs I wanted to do before the car officially went on the road, was to remove the awful looking blue silicone hoses. There's nothing wrong with having coloured silicone hoses, but I realise as I'm getting older I prefer monotone engine bays with a splash of colour on the engine cover(s). I cover this in a lot more detail in the Youtube video, so unfortunately there's limited photos of the process. The intercooler, upper radiator, boost vacuum and upper breather hoses were all changed to black silicone with mikalor clamps. The only blue left is a blanking cap at the back of the inlet manifold and the GReddy pulleys (which will be replaced for stock when the cambelt gets replaced) While the intercooler pipes were off I gave them a quick clean/polish too A before photo I do have a replacement air filter on its way. Fuse box covers were painted blue, they're now satin black Another job on the list while the bumper was off, is to add some mesh https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/54737966256_99b28bfa30_c.jpg[/img] I was hoping to use some thin wire to secure it, but it seems I've misplaced it and the wire I had was too thick to twist easily. I ended up using cable ties for the time being https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/54737131882_c2b7989dcc_c.jpg[/img] Was pleasant to see this https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/54737131627_8b2aab13b3_c.jpg[/img] The last thing to do was to fix the front grill and re-mesh that to match but I ran out of time The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R4FsF6tgizE&t=23s
