Cheers. They are Rota GTRs 18x8s. Originally I was gonna try and squeeze wider wheels on for a deeper or concave look, but fender rolling put me off. And then there was deciding the colour, then the number of spokes, then the width of tyre, then the profile, then the... I'm glad its over :p

The car looks great, you just need some bigger brakes to fill those wheels now :)
 
Proper tyres too, rare :P

Looks good :)

I was browsing alloys, Rota Circuit 10's or Circuit 8's or R Spec;s - too many beautiful things not enough money :'(
 
I want the Rota GTRs for mine. Dunno what colour I should get for a black car though... I can't afford the Nismo alloys :(
 
Yeah, decided to get some tyres that will let me be foot heavy ; )

The rota range is pretty huge. So good luck with that :D I was close to getting the rota grids, 6 spoke jobbies. Lenso has some nice ones too which I went to order, but there was a six week wait. Matte black d1rs

As for colour, take a look at hyper black. Hard to get hold of, but there's a few around and look real good on black cars. Without being overly 'in yo face' :p
 
Those wheels with that colour suit the car perfectly. Really like it.

Are those rear clusters factory fitted? They look like (dare I say it) Lexus lights?!

Thanks. Yeah, it's genuine. Really nice car to be honest, but maybe I'm biased :D The TRDs are 210bhp at stock though, so not sure how it would compare against a 140 or 190 edition. I've heard the 140 ain't brilliant, but for the the money, the 190bhp seems like a good buy

Plus, you can strap a supercharger to the 190, like mine :D

Sweet! It's a nice example you've got there make sure you look after it :p The 190's are good but can be hard work to have any real fun with at times. I used to have a GT but fitted some extra TRD kit to it. Hope they aren't lexus style rear clusters like someone mentioned before :p
 
Quite fancy some of those wheels for my MR2, dunno what they'd look like in a smaller size though. Don't think I'd want to go larger than 16".
 
Not worth bumping my crappy thread for these, but nonetheless...





Paint isn't perfect, but quite good for an 8 year old black 'Vauxhall' :)
 
Was out cleaning the car with the neighbour who was cleaning his jeep today, gave the car a good wash and polish, while I was out there I decided to clean the front radiators of any debris that I could get my hands on. Put my hand in and pulled out a dead bird, thats right a full dead pile of feathers beak and bones. Decided not to do the other side. I think Ill just take the bumper off in a few weekends time.



Anyway I think the old girl cleans up well :)







Happy with my mornings work :D
 
My daily. 2.4 JTD 20v diesel. pretty pokey for a diesel with 175bhp! Seems to be in the 40s for MPG too.

My golf Gti. Had it 7 years! Engine came out today. Chosen to replace it with a 1.8t lump. Should have nearly 300 bhp when done :s Fun!

Grabbed some better pics finally of the new beast, the front shot was a bit dark in the garage sorry so I dropped it (previous pic at garage). I didn't request the debadging but I don't think I'll put it back on for now, having sDrive35i doesn't exactly mean much on the side anyway.

Cannot stand the colour but the new Z4 is an elegant car in the flesh!
Although I can't help but pick out the awkward swage/whatever they are lines that stop after the door and then a new one starts for the boot. Looks awkward imo.
