|
Lol, sounds pricee but with winning the lotto it could happen https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...1047683785.gif
|
what are the size and offset of the wheels, and tire size? Just want to know if my rpf1's (17x9.5 +18 w/ 255/40) will clear the TDC front and rear fenders.
That build looks like a lot of blood and sweat was put into it. From the ground up! Very impressive indeed. Let us know your time when you guys run Tsukuba! |
Can't figure out how to edit my first post so I'll just say this here to the creator of the thread: How does one get into building cars/owning a shop? I'm changing career paths and I'm thinking of doing a mechanic apprenticeship but I'm wondering if there's a general consensus on how to get into the business. Classic newbie post I'm sure, but I just dropped all my university courses after 3 years because I knew it wasn't for me (thank god it looks like I'll get a full refund), so you can treat this question with a bit more seriousness than a 15 year old's idle musings https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/smile.gif

Wheels- Enkei RPF1 - 9.5j +12??? I think
