What its got now (phil can correct me if im wrong)
Hyundai Sonata MPI with throttle body relocated to centre
Link Computer
Later model TC06 with water cooling and T3 comp wheel
Apparantly rebuilt motor
Nice suspension and steering setup
Coltspeed front
Torana style spoiler perfectly mouled into the rear of the car.
What ive done since i got it was.
-Give it a good wash
-Remove the Apexi and Trust stickers from bonnet
-Fix a blown headlight
-Change the steering wheel and fix the horn
-Touched up the paint in a few spots
-Cleaned up some of the engine bay wiring
-Shot blasted a spare rocker cover and painted it Monza Red, Has crackle look to it
-Started fitting a few missing trim bits
-Remove aftermarket pedal covers and put on standard covers
-Fit heat sheild over turbo
-Attach the catch can and put a filter on it
Mainly just a daily driver till my JD is done.
Plans
-Register it
-Eventually fit cooler setup from my JD
-Replace some bolts with stainless ones (work has plenty lol)
-And thats about it. Leave it a tidy daily
Will get interior pics when it isnt raining,,
should be able to get all the bits i need from my parts JA

Are they 18"?
Posted: Sun May 27, 2007 7:32 pm
Yes they are 18s,
front are 18 x 7.5 with 225 tyres
rear are 18 x 7.5 with 245 tyres
ive put them on my JD before and daves JA which is lowered and only the rear scrap with 2 people in the car and u hit a bump. With not-so-low suspension shouldnt have any probs.

starions dwarf 18's :S

can some one photo chop the side pic so the body sits just above the top of the tyre. It certainly makes the rims look like 17" and I thought a set of 18" would look a bit bigger but maybe it is just the ride height. The rims I have actually looked at are 10x18" and tyres are 285/30/18 in a Bridgestone re55 = $515 a tyre plus about $850 per rim!!! I have to keep saving
