paul555sti Posted May 9, 2008 Posted May 9, 2008 (edited) Well thats my mods 99% complete ( for now ). After having the front mount fitted and the car mapped i am over the moon with the performance, that just left the looks. I liked the white wheels that were on the car when i got it from gus but the look i wanted for it was slightly different. I bought a set of speedline st2 wheels for the car but after fitting them i still wasnt 100% happy so the long hunt began to find the right wheels. I had spent the morning cleaning and polishing the car to get it ready for tomorrow. Well today they arrived I also treated myself to a new set of flaps to go with the new wheels.

micra_wrc Posted May 9, 2008 Posted May 9, 2008 good to see that the mods are complete for now - she was looking a bit sorry for herself when I saw her down at Hypertech a couple of weeks back, with the front all dismantled and stuff pleased that you found the wheels you were after, but I prefer white ones that were on the 555

I do love the wheels just as much as the white ones mmmmmm need to find something to put the white ones on now PS what you done with the Red flaps? If they are still kicking around is there any chance of borrowing them for a day or two??? want to see if Performance Creation flaps will fit the Leggy and to try a set against the car would be braw Edited May 10, 2008 by Gus the Bus

paul555sti Posted May 13, 2008 Author Posted May 13, 2008 jimser said: like them better than the white wheels(no offence gus)have you considered lowering it slightly? lovely car Jimser the car already has Whiteline springs Whiteline F&R ARB Whiteline F&R droplinks Whiteline ALK Whiteline Steering bushes Fast Rd Geometry settings it would look slightly better a bit lower but i am very happy with how it handles. Peter i am not sure about the weight of the wheels.
andy Posted May 13, 2008 Posted May 13, 2008 You were parked up outside the Chinese when I went to the shop on Sunday. Was going to come over for a looky and a blether, but you'd burbled past by the time I got my milk!
