The shopping has started!
I am expecting my car early March (and yes, I am bulging quite a bit) so I have started on the shopping list.
Because of the long lead time I have already ordered wheels: 8 x RPF1 17x8,black. (Thanks Josh @ 86drift for all the emails; I had heaps of questions). Seriously excellent value compared to some other brands for performance wheels imo. I have also bought an oil cooler plate (the radiator bit) but not anything else to go with it as yet (I was bored when I ordered that). Josh is getting his kit organised so I will see what he comes up with but regardless I don't see the point in spending close to $1k on a Greddy or hks kit when you can buy all the parts for around 1/2 that. End of January brakes, drive shaft, crank pulley and some of the exhaust will be ordered. Odds and ends closer to March. Suspension probably not until June though it wouldn't surprise me if I get carried away and borrow some money to get that done :/ Will post pics as bits arrive. Wooooo!!! Very exciting!! |

Only thing that turned me away from the RPF1 wheels is the style, but they are excellent value for money and a damn light wheel
