What have you done to your P5 today?

Talked to alex alil bit about this so Im picking up a new set of wheel's bbs speedline's in 16" gonna throw 195's on them and give the p5 a nice drop :) here's what they look like just gotta pay for them tomorrow.

You already have Tires lined up? if not check my FS thread. A price can be negotiated.
 
if they were 8" wide that'd be siiiiiiiiiiiiick but nice wheels none the less!
I have to agree that would be sick could always space them out.Im going for poke so I'll prob end up doing that and getting longer studs.

I am so freaking jealous. Wish i had the cash to paint just my hood, back hatch, and the window trim... paint is so faded/scratched )^;
 
Just get hit...lol...that is what I did...

And a 195...how much is that going to stretch on a 7" wide rim...I have 205's and they even seem a bit big...the 225's just look huge...

Well it's not a crazy stretch but should look nice Im just gonna get the wheel's first and worry about the tire's later lol if anybody has anymore input on tire's for this setup let me know.My thing now is low and slow.

BBS= played out lol
i like them, but everyone is getting them these days, if u go to vrwheels.com and check out the 16" section, thats ALL they have, well one set of r32 skyline wheels and something else
but the rest are BBS rs, i was actually lookin at the 16x8 16x9 staggered setup they had on there, only 750 for all 4
 
BBS will never be played out. How can you say such a thing? lol RX-8's & FD's I can understand, but BBS???

I rarely see legit wheels around Cincinnati, maybe that's why. Idk...
 
TWM short shifter... they inlcude some spacers to bump the heat shield down away from the shifter since it is longer on the underside, I guess. Are these really needed, I haven't gotten any further since posting before.



I realized this when I picked up my MSP lip from paint. Holy crap is that a lot of flake. Did you get the lighter or darker paint? Odd question, but when I dropped in to check up on my lip, the painter wanted to compare his paint mix to the cars paint since there were a light and dark mix that could have been made.

yeah....... about them spacers. it doesnt seem to work for everyone. i had to cut my heatshield when i installed my twm short shifter cuz it was hitting the heat shield
 
driver side front wheel was flat, seem like a pothole i hit made a slit in the sidewall or something and Discount tire, replaced my tire for free...debating whether i want to actually buy a new tire so that the passenger side will have matching treads or if i wana put a nail in the sidewall and bring it up to another discount and use my warranty :/ there is huge construction here at school so hopefully i get a nail in the remaining 3 tires for a complete new set :DDD
 
I finally put on the MS6 rims back on. I put like 2000 miles on the RE01Rs. =( Anyways Got that done, found oil everywhere. When I changed my horn I must have bumped my oil cooler or something and the top connection came loose. Dripping oil since this past Sunday. Anyways today I find a s*** load of oil underneath my car. =( Got that tightend up and added more oil. Its too damn hot to change my oil.

Then so right now im building my vent gauge pod. =) I might make a how to or something.

i wanted those r32 wheels for a while until i got these lol
i love that site. used to be rbwheels.com but now direct links you to vrwheels
 
Said **** it and cut my heatshiled off to install the short shifter. Along with finishing that off, I also installed some Corksport bronze-oil bushings at the other end along with Kartboy poly bushings.

do those bronze-oil bushings reduce all the shifter play? I want them but i dont like having to pay $10 shipping for 4 little bushings
