Stunning!

I think the low carbon wing and gold BBS on a white blob goes together perfectly.

Pictures are a must if you go ahead with your plan mate.

It wasn`t that black one is a mix of a couple of different cars, As far as i am aware there was only, White, Blue and Red(listed in most common colour first ) There was a thread about it on here a while back, It was used as a track car by some garage but cant remember which, It is not a genuine Spec-C although some of it is

Yeh no worries there, Its gonna be another month or two yet as they are not cheap as you know I cant afford new but i can afford genuine 2nd hand(Just)

Have you not thought about getting a set from the US for your car, There seems to be plenty of them over there in 114.3.

Yeah, that's what i was thinking, but didn't find any registered vendor selling them. Found 1 or 2 sets for sale by private members. Not so sure i'd paypal someone (i don't know at all) cash for a set of wheels

Hi Stevie, if it's a MY04 model (narrow track, 100 x 5 PCD), they were only available in blue and white.

I see MY04 non Spec C door panels (Spec C of that year don't come with chrome door handles and power windows) on a MY05 wide track body (maybe tacked on rear fender extensions) MY04-05 Spec C comes with blue interior as well.

I'm not exactly sure to be honest, I was under the impression I was running a standard VF36 but after a recent rolling road day my figures seem to suggest its not as standard as I thought it was, Possibly a hybrid with a bit of porting but its also very possible the figures arn't totally correct but there was a few mixed results on the day(see post 42 of mine on here)
https://www.scoobynet.com/927901-wou...l#post10524500

I think the only way I'll find out for definitely is to either remove the turbo or put it on another dyno, both of which I can't really be arsed doing as I don't really think there is any need, It drives very well on the road and that's all I'm interested in

Gaz.

I did half a tank in on Sat just driving around having a bit of fun

The noise is just too adictive, I think it might be cheaper to turn to drugs, lol.
