Got a set of work in 19in vsxx gold with crazy offset and width. coilovers and arms, my mate is a fabricator and he wants to do a set of stainless headers and full stainless system and for something different some titanium pipes. do some form of air induction and that should crank it up to 200hp atw, had it dynoed a few weeks back and it made a consistant 167ish hp atw. once the warrenty ends i have plans to strap 2xgt2560s or a pair of gtr n1's and all the basic bolt ons. maybe chuck in a thicker headgakets and valve spings which will help. i dont see why it wouldnt make 300+hp atws.... but my warrenty runs out 2012 :P

I call that r e prese n t. :)

[ilv1004s]

hm..yeah nice plans hope they work..

iv been following alot of force inductions for our cars

but end result high compression = low boost 5-6 psi max

got the wheel specs for your car?

[D1 Pete]

i sure do 19x9 and 19x10 offsets are a secret :P but i can tell u theyre in the low +20s ;)

[ilv1004s]

yeah thats awsome..

might need some fender mods after that lol

[D1 Pete]

a slight gaurd roll and a bit of camber.. they'll fit :)

[ilv1004s]

hahah thats great mate

good to see another member taking it the baller way!!

[D1 Pete]

I just have a taste for offset. So no offence to anyone who runs these offsets but u see so many is250s getting around with massive epic fail +40 offsets. its like seeing other jap cars getting around with sydney sex-spec chromies. its just not cricket

[Atlantis]

A shame you can only change offset by 12.5mm each side legally...

[D1 Pete]

have never heard that law as long as they arent sticking out of the gaurds heaps its all good

[ldc]

Are these it?

Can't wait to see your car...

[D1 Pete]

thats them mate :)

[D1 Pete]

Bit of an update, now supporting oldschool vip dish :)

jic's are on their way but could wait to fit these.

Speed star viennas 2 piece 18x9 and 18x10 +24

rear will tuck nice one slammed :P

More pics when jic's get installed

[Terrrrry]

What tyre sizes are you running and are your fenders rolled?

Definitely gonna look great once you get it lowered!

[D1 Pete]

i mite have to roll the rears a tiny bit.

fronts are a 235/40/18 and rears are a 255/35/18.

mite go down to a 235/35 to tuck it a bit better :)

i would have much rathered 19's but beggers cant be choosers, especially when i got them for a steal. jic's should be landing in the country very soon :)
