Bazz1600 Posted September 13, 2010 Author Share Posted September 13, 2010 Sweet car man, must go freakin well! Not sure on the white mags/bright green, stands out for sure What's left to do for cert? yeah white mags came with the car, very gay wheel thats for sure...Im quite limited to wheel choice as of yet as the back is 4x100 still and im undecided on what to do for the back... ive been quoted $500 to have the original 4x100 mazda axle holes solid filled and re-tapped to 5x114 (s5 rx7) this included the studs and wheel bearings...not too bad... but i could also just buy wheels to suit lol Id prefer to have it all 5 stud, cos its seems in my head that its a waste to just have the front all beefy and not the back... on another note, i could do a huge hilux conversion, but tbh i dont know where to start... but what could be uber meke, is changing the rear to IRS by using MX5 rear subframe, and using s4/5 live axle/diff shit... money rules, not having it sucks. for cert, make back brakes work a bit better -more quieter (apparently 2.5" from turbo back to a 5" dumpy tip is too loud to be legal, pffft) -ditch locky will be going thru this with local cert guy very soon, he needs a hot rod of his worked on and i can help him out with the paint process, so very massive win for me, stoked.

shizzl Posted September 13, 2010 Share Posted September 13, 2010 gunmetal grey on these looks sweet ae.. non standard colours ie what it is now, yellows etc, nah, dont look good on them... i actually love seeing these is the mazda beige and other period colours(no not your mrs monthly reds) for $500 just go for a hilux conversion...but i dont know if the diff needs to be shortened or not... anyway i think it was a worthy swap unless your vr4 was an epic weapon of collectable goodness, which they arent...the vr4 evo0 are cool though..

Sparkle Posted September 13, 2010 Share Posted September 13, 2010 not a fan of the wheel choice, but that lambo colour will be epic. For wheels a nice steel in gloss black would look choice I reckon, am thinking a certain pic of a brownish c10 skyline with black steels, someone else might have the pic.

Alistair Posted September 13, 2010 Share Posted September 13, 2010 Leave the RS5's to every other rx2/rx3/rxanything out there at the moment, that also goes for modgies, hotties, titans, simmons, astrons, z's etc! Colour will be awesome though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mixmasterlex Posted September 14, 2010 Share Posted September 14, 2010 Agree with these chaps. Colour is epic. Wheels are waaaaaaay overdone which is a shame as they are sweet rims. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Testament Posted September 14, 2010 Share Posted September 14, 2010 bronze or green watties maybe? could work well with the grey? would be something different for a 626 without being way out there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Testament Posted November 17, 2010 Share Posted November 17, 2010 the steering seems to be rather ineffectual there, brutal cool but don't know if I would be keen if it was my car Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyGal Posted November 17, 2010 Share Posted November 17, 2010 Yeah mate get some smaller wider rims on it. 17s make them look like roller skates. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bazz1600 Posted November 18, 2010 Author Share Posted November 18, 2010 front brake caliper limits to size on rim choice have gone off the lenzo's a bit now, will just have to see what will work once ive ironed out some creases Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EURON8 Posted November 18, 2010 Share Posted November 18, 2010 What is the smallest wheel size you can run and we'll make some collective suggestions. 15's are usually the smallest when it comes to oldcars and bigger breaks unless this thing has mega brakes. im guessing (prob says in write up ) but FC brakes. 15s will fit. from memory also, me = much love for bridgey turbos! Seconded the request for monster burnouts. will bring back memorys of when i was 'that guy' in my turbo rota. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
