New wheels!!! Decided to chase some Speedline Turbines (Black)  Photoshop composites - rear only:  Both:  also Of interest some TRD Tosco's 7j 8j love the look but they are sadly 10 years older than the car... not even in the same period. Scream vintage motorsport! Rear only  Both  E30 bottlecaps!  - - - Top weather today went to sus out the local windies, first time in the adub. Brilliant.  First stop Hastings.  Then onto Mt Martha, Rye, Dromana and up Arthurs Seat.  For Ross - no roof...  Was awesome running up and down Arthurs Seat not a car in sight! Pretty much had it all to myself.  Bro also did the bumper damage around the front left indicator.   Before Bro wrecked the rear left...

argh.. **** to see the back left wheel get hit. :(
what was bent to get it looking like that? quick job fixing too. :)
n top weather this weekend again too. fkn magic.
as for the wheels, you're going to struggle finding specific vintage wheels..! better off just browsing for something that takes your fancy.. otherwise you'll be waiting a while.
as in, i cant remember the last set of TRD Tosco's i saw that werent something ridiculous.. like 4x110 13x8 +5. :P

Awesome weather and an impromptu drive :p Lower tie rod was bent / adjusting tube. Fixed but am eyeing off some stainless ones from twosrus. Too right regarding the specific wheels!!! Toscos DO command high prices!!! arrrrr You might like this site for rare wheels - global classifieds http://www.wheel-whores.com/classifieds/ RdS

Also re-installed the interior trims this weekend. Feels like a different car (aesthetically anyway)! Was peeved by the crack in my floor console so today after work went to the wreckers in Epping. Toyrolla chasing a floor console only and OMG!!! BOOM theres a SuperRed adub there! Left with: Floor console and... Sun roof Sun roof interior shade Sun roof interior bag Sun roof harness straps Sun roof headliner rubber edging Rear firewall carpet Upper firewall console Steering cowls Light and Wiper knobs with icons!!! Right door sill Original jack tool bag and tools Center console storage bin and finally Boot hinge (working). Woah. So many other bits there - if your in Melbourne Vic it may be worth checking out! Its a red adub with black interior.

Sun roof headliner rubber edging argh.. i hate you. :P my mate told me that car was there a fortnight ago. i SHOULDVE gone on the weekend.. but lazyness. im such a piece of ****! let me know if you ever want to sell the shade+bag eh! and back to the wheels.. dont neg on the 16's, they look suprisingly good on adub's. if you like four spokes, have a good look at the classic Work Equip 02's, or SSR MKII's. always enjoyable.. :)

Arrgh!!! Lols will let you know for sure ;) If its any consolation i did look for others... sorry there were no others! I went back yesterday, i think im developing some sort of problem... think i might go back... Cheers regarding the wheels, nice! im yet to be sold on 16's... And your spot on rare wheels are becoming ridiculously hard to find, ship, and expensive! I.e. Speedline turbines door(UK) to door(Melbourne) 3-4 days via DHL $2330. no thanks Probably keep it lightweight and local - new or used...
