Those 20's actually look nice on the clubby I was expecting to see some crap looking chromies.
What brand are the rims?
Also are you going to piss off the stock air box?

Speedy Envy 20x8.5

Air box ill get round to at some point removing it just havent been bothered by it yet.

Looks the part, great choice. Just make sure the kids don't continue the cricket while ur car is parked there. :whip:

[JamesL]

Similar wheels to what I have but mine are very dirty from brake dust

:)

[Ch0jiN]

Very Nice Those rims are awesome!

By the way, a faster shutter speed would have removed the blur from a couple of those pics. Either increase your aperture or use a flash ;)

[VooDoo]

They look a lot like ROH Modena's. Very nice mate.

I moved it to the garage before the kids really got into the game of cricket. I told them to hang on till it was inside.

Looks real good Jim. Couldn't get a good look the other night in the dark so good on you for posting the pics.

Whats the ride like now??

Dont know much about cameras. I just point a shoot. Its a canon A75 powershot 3.2 MP. I was thinking of upgrading to a better camera but undecided on what to get.

Its a little harsher on the 20s but getting used to it. The coilovers also make the front feel tighter but that could be my imagination playing tricks

Alex when you got your edit is your traction control working as mine wont until the new software arrives i was told

Its all good. Next time if you take pics at the same time of day, then try the engine bay shots with the flash on. You'll likely get a sharper shot out of it.

But thats all I'll say as I dont wanna be a thread hijacker. :) I do moonlight as a photographer though so I'm easily distracted by photo-talk :)

I meant to ask you about that mate. It "appears" to be working as far as indications on the dash are concerned but I switch it off habitually once I get the engine running anyway :burnout:

[staticexistence]

looks good :thumbsup:

[Alex81]

Nice rims you got there:headbang:

[HERCULES]

Very nice, rims suit the car perfect.

[Vulture]

That rear-quarter view is tough :headbang: Sounded nice from behind during the cruise too - even though it was raining and window up.

That's Not Black :shock: :burnout: But Cool Rims.

[LS1UTE]

Very nice, wheels make the car look different from the rest.

What power are you making with OTRCAI and tune ?

[Guzzles]

Really nice... looks different to all those bloody chrome rims (IMO) :box: :flip2: :hide:

@Ryzz: We need some new smileys...:bounce:

[chilly]

I moved it to the garage before the kids really got into the game of cricket. I told them to hang on till it was inside.

Just cam, tune, exhaust only had 3500klms done so going back in 3 weeks for final tune with new software and new difillipos so hopefully it might go 295rwkw plus. Will wait and see.

Also close to 5000klms on clock to so it may have loosened up a bit

What size difillipos are you getting is it the whole system my mate just got a twin 3" cat back system he has got a harrop blower and it sounds awesome :driving:

Ive already got pacie 4 into 1 but only 1 5/8 and twin 3 inch hand built. It sounds awesome to mine does. Going to 1 3/4 difillipos as we think the pacies could be holding it back.

[SV8-ACC78]

Awesome Jim, just awesome - you couldn't have made a better choice mate!

[LS1UTE]

what times do you run mate

Its going to get to the track one day ! Few little things to sort out and then i'm off racing.


That's nice power your making there blkvzss. Bet it drives nice too.:cool:

how did you go fitting the PT OTR CAI , when i fitted mine i was not able to close the hood properly as the throttle body is mounted in a different position set further back to the firewall

[KeenGolfer]

Normally I think 20" wheels look ridiculous, but those look great on the Clubby. A good choice.

no problems all fit nicely under bonnet. i think the silicon connecting hose is a tad longer so the unit sits forward more

[SS346]

Tough looking car mate

[Knight Phlier]

Nice looking ride - wheels look awesome!

[blksswagon]

Yes i agree.Nice choice.Look almost identical to the ones i had.20inch AZURIS

Yeah Whizza had trouble with the fit of his OTRCAI aswell. The one they sent his was different in some way I can't remember now.. To many drinks, way too often..

:)
