they look good mate!!

i think they need tapered wheel nuts though, rather than domed "OEM" ones.

i should of mentioned that. i do have a brand new set of red Ultralite wheel nuts for sale. lol

just a small update, I've mainly been helping my mate with his d16 rebuild of late and giving bradcoup a hand removing his b20.

Changed the oil, fitted a type r gearknob and most interestingly removed my rear anti roll bar.

Image

My mate advised me on this as he's read several posts, backed up by Daz, that this helps keep the rear end settled and so far it seems this is true - the rear of the car seems to want to 'hop' less and therefore has more traction and feels more planted when giving it a bit of beans.

Also gave the vt a wash and a wax, came up pretty well so thought I'd be a bit of a pic whore :P
