current steering via a pair of vice grips :P wrecker run tomorrow to get rwc parts... once thats done the craziness will begin i can hear willowbank calling.... paddock bashing could be in its future Brad

re read whole thread , geez it has come a long long way Matt

got this for free.. 4k auto stripped interior little rust aroungd boot and lower rear quarters stock suspension and ride height blah blah blah plans rego first then keep it ugly and rough... low handling rims 3.8 v6 5 speed drive it till it's defected :P

I'm in again you will need approved helmet long sleeves long pants shoes $40 cash i had none of the above last time but willnext time

i try.. most are pretty sad when i get em but i have the technology to revive ,restore , and up-spec them

from this to this that is not all, three to go ;)

4k still running on 4 ....equals 2 of yours

hahaha found the charger and spare battery for the video camera.... next time Matt

that hummmer does 17's

so i scored these simmons v4 mesh centres 3 of 4 x 114.3 3 of 4 x 100 anyone want some sick sized wheels made up to suit their car? can make em any size /offset to fit under stock, mild or wild guards ina 4 inch outer...

same window winders as i have

got some other styles stashed away just mesh are getting insanely expensive people asking $500 a pair for 15 x 6.5's i have some rims here i can "loan" to you Brad

while at the drags i had 5 guys offer to buy my rims off the car... more people looking for the wideness lol only problem is theyre getting extremely hard to find these days

this set of rims are 1983 vintage , so period correct ! welded because if SSR Work etc deem they need to be from their factory then i feel they should be from mE I do wheels for my self first and foremost , so why would i want to cut corners to save a few bucks? it's like rebuilding your engine and deciding the old head gasket will be alright . These Southernways were not originally welded together, and Simmons are not welded either so its not really a legality issue, the weld increases the strength of the rim, helps with sealing and is good for added safety a little extra cost is minimal compared to the carnage that could ensue. after all you are relying on 20 6 or 8 mm 6.6 high tensile bolts and nuts same as bolts , why re use 20 + yr old bolts when for around $80 you can buy new bolts and nuts at a much higher grade i use aviation grade 12.9 high tensile bolts as i have snapped a standard ssr bolt in a rim once . t'was fun running down the quarter , i only need to find 6 seconds and then it will be a race :blinks:

451,000 and change on mine

well went out to the willowbank test and tune tonight my very tired and smoky , stock standard 4k did the quarter mile in 21.580 @60.87 mph :blinks: slow as but still good fun and the 4k survived and was driven home :(

not atm very hard to come by a set of SSR reverse mesh in these sizes and condition also VERY EXPENSIVE... these sold for $1500 the set all 4 were fully reconditioned , new powdercoat, new bolts and nuts + a full polish they are 15 x7 +1 front 15 x 7.5 +2 rear fitted with brand new 195/50/15 's

new "special "bolts and nuts are now here as well rims are now off being welded together :blinks:

looks great troy only thing is the twin pipe pointing up might attract the po po attention

red would be easiest, jams etc are already red maybe with a diff colour top or below the lower trim line ie bleeding panda

na need to try to actually run a full set of something for a while i do have a pair of 4 inch brand new rays 15 inch mesh outers here find some skinny one and we can fatten em up Phil
