$600 on getting a TT engine in a V8 Soarer ?? Bit optimistic there :-) The guy who was selling "The coolest and most unique Soarer in the world" had converted his V8 limited to a TT engine with everything running and lets just say it cost a lot more than $1600.

Would be nice but ! :-)

Hey James

Got any pics of your new alloys on the car?

I may be camping that weekend, but if not, i will be there. I'll post if i am coming

Thanks for all the ideas guys.

Neil, only 350rwkw??? hahah seriously, i think 200 would do me just fine..

Looks good Doug :-) bet it sounds fantastic..

Went to Keith 4 wheels today and got some second hand (but brand new) 19's for a good price. Will post pics. And will do the exhaust in the very near future.. Have to roll my guards a bit 1st.. 275's on the rear are a tad wide :-)

Thanks again guys for the inspiration..

Classic! Go Avin!!

Don, it would probably cost more than 3K to get it there :-) But, if it helps you to get closer to haydens amount of soarers, then who am I to get in the way.... hehe

Not sure of the brand or type yet, but 19x8.5 on the fronts with 35 offset and 19x9.5 on the rear with 38 offset.

I must be one of the lucky ones because it drives like stock and even the ride is quite smooth :-) very happy.

Exhaust in the near future..

Nice wheels, how much were they, and did that include tyres?

Cheers guys

Yeah, i haven't seen any like them either :-)

I think they are 9.5.. not sure if i can tell without taking them off..

They are labeled "A.C.S, Euro Design, Leasing" :S I cant find anything on the net about them.

They were ordered in for a car and didn't fit. So they were just sitting out the back.

I got them for $2500 (bit of haggling) which i thought was pretty good with good quality falkens all round.. Really need to roll the guards tho :-)

HA! They do too!! i didn't even notice :-)

Hey James, You have a serious amount of dish on the rears there.. :-O You could use it as a bloody mirror..

Where did you get your guards done?

I have the original wheels that i don't need anymore. If anyone is interested, let me know. Otherwise i'll keep them for the drags or something :-)
