We are so close now I can feel it!

With the wheels we had to buy new rotors and have them redrilled at custom off road to suit the stud pattern of the wheel we wanted to buy. I chose a 4 stud pattern, 114.3, which can also fit on a nissan :)

Sweet - amazing what a difference a set of wheels can make to a car. You must have a great feeling of satisfaction with the progress but it will be that much sweeter for that first drive!

We started in mid march so it's take quite a few months! Can't wait to get her on the road and hopefully she will be even closer this weekend. Man it sucks having to work, and not having the time to do these things!

Thanx, apart from the backside sitting high up. The front beam has an adjustable front and I think I might have to get the bum lowered.
