I now think these wheels might be a bit bling...oh well...

Christer

and...

DaveK

I still think they're very nice looking wheels. Which proves that :

a) If you think they're a bit Bling, then you have no taste

b) They won't suit your car

ian c - u.k

i don't think they're bling .

i think once they're fitted they will look like they've allways been there .

do the porsche centrecaps fit them ??

R6XTERRA

I love the deep dish, can't wait to see them mounted.

Christer

Yeah, i obviously like the styles - they just look a little more chrome than I remember....maybe it is just the light?

the center caps fit, although mine are off the original D90's and are at least 13 years old so I shoul dget some new ones. oh and some seriously strong locks on the wheel nuts. All of them.

DaveK

I think it's your eyes - chrome type shine would definitely look "bling" - but these just look kind of polished aluminium to me. Look nice.

You definitely do need coloured centre caps (and - on a different subject - teardrop mirrors!).

Christer

oh, i don't think i could afford tear drop mirrors! ha ha!

i think you should fit boxster mirrors ................ for the retro look

Christer

no, my car would be totally indistinguishable from a 550! That just wouldn't do....

DaveK

It would be more reliable and cheaper to maintain though. I reckon if you fitted them before you collect the car, the bill from 9M would only be £1.75.

not to mention , you will also become a track-star overnight !!

Nice looking wheels. The lips very nice on them wheels. I thought you wanted italia riverias R6xterra?

Christer

ok, so latest word from 9M is that the parts have arrived and its full speed ahead. if cam timing is completed today, then one more day to complete the build and another few hours to pop the engine back in the car with the other bits (LSD and LWF etc).

Apparently we are using a 993 plastic intake with the (oh sh*t, i forgot what it was called now) throttle something built in which the Motec needs for optimum operation. I am soooo technically challenged. More next week I guess!

ian c - u.k

throttle position sensor ??
or m.a.p. sensor ??
