They look nice, personally I am not a fan of the gold but repainting is easy :)

I saw this float by on trademe, so I grabbed it as a xmas pressie for myself.

I will have to save up and get things like a driveshaft and new clutch but at least I have a decent collection of stuff to build from.

Was more mocking the fact this guy is passing off fakes as real wheels, I hate that.

The only wheels ever going on will be circa 80s-90s Japanese goodness.

You can tell they're fakes because of the offset? Can't say I know much about anything other than RPF1s :-P

Rays do in fact make 15x8 +0 TE37v. Things like the particular finish these are in, the centre caps and the price.

m looking very hard at purchasing this supercharger kit from TradeMe.

http://www.trademe.co.nz/Browse/Listing ... =676925624

Doing a google search brings up a little bit of information on other installs using the TR Lane gear. There looks to be quite a lot in the UK, but very few elsewhere.

Kinda tempted by this Bride Vios III + LF Rail: http://page11.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/a ... n131917106

Anyone know how much (roughly) getting a seat sent from Japan would cost? New price is ~$750 for the seat + $215 for rails I think, so could be worth it if the shipping isn't too horrendous...

They look like a factory item as they recline, but at the same time, they're probably backwards as most recliners have that adjuster on the outside of the car.
