I didn't even look at the back rim haha for not even noticing a nice red wheel.
Anyway wheel gap needs to be shot down.. but holy nice brakes
Lot of 240 owners go that route, and no one can blame them yeah?

it sucks cause 240 owners cant really drop the car cause the front would be scrapping dirt ...

btw, nice car
have tons of friends who are 240 owners and do a sr20 swap .. here's an example

you can push those wheels further, i can smell at least a 10mm spacer when you get enough camber on those hoes.

the advans look hot, but i dont know about red wheels ona blue car.
disassemble them and paint them the same color as the wheels up front.

the wheel gap has been addressed already.

eh.. i have 5zigen Typhoons rear as well in 17x9 +35
but i dunno, just decided to go with the advans for now...
and motor is stock KA, decided to go suspension - brakes - wheels/tires first...
my damn Tanabe DD's are still in customs T_T

i think typhoons and fn01rc's are just popular with the 240/rwd crowd because theyre
-inexpensive
-come in good RWD sizes
-look good
pretty easy seller for 5zigen

nice..
Last month I installed z32 26mm calipers + z32 brembo rotors xdrilled&slotted + earls ss lines on my friends RSP13
at 2am we were re-drilling the rotors to 4 lugs lol.
these brakes are the best upgrade for the buck. only costed 300 bucks

No motor pics? then you must be stock, which makes the brakes useless

How do you "redrille" say when they take a 4x114.3 rotor and make it 4x100? Do you just make the holes "bigger" ? I'm a nub at 'custom' work..

yep pretty much stock.i mean, i couldve used the 6000 or so i have so far and had a rb25det or nice built sr swaped in but no brakes or suspension but ive decided to go brakes - wheels/tires - suspension first because i enjoy driving more than in a straight line..
a bit refreshing, no? and believe it or not, *gasp* the ka24de isnt so weak. it actually has more then enough power for controlled drift and grip driving...what a surprise eh i hope u guys installed the Nabco/Tokico 1 1/16" master cylinder too on your brake swap otherwise your brakes are REALLY useless...

as for jeffsong, if u saw closely, i switched to 5lug..thats how the stock z32 stuff comes..the other guy redrilled it to 4 lug so he didnt have to do a 5 lug conversion
