here is the ebay link http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...RK%3AMEWA%3AIT
they are pretty light i find, the lightest rims i've found were the hre but they are way too expensive. the center of the rim is powder coated and the lip is polished. you can see in the pic i tried to grind down the caliper but went a little too far, got fluid leaking now. i'm glad the calipers are not floating because once i make my spacer i won't have much clearance. i also got my urethane bumper today and i'm a little dissapointed, it will need a little work but at least its not fiberglass. i wasn't sure what to do with the new na bumper i bought but i think i'll just stick it on while i get the other one right so i will still be able to drive the car. i'll post some pics tomorrow of the bumper. |

i'm trying to go as fast as i can. i have to finish the red roadster by the end of this month and i have a seat and two door panels plus the wiring to go so i can only do a few thing here and there. once the red roadster is gone i'll work full time on it to finish it.

oh....that sux. i would call some local wrecking yards for you but i already found out that there isnt a z32 in a wrecking yard in my area. well actually there is one, that was found in the bottom of a lake with a dead body in the hatch. this thing doesnt have a spot of metal left that doesnt have rust over it. so unfortunate that they would dump a perfectly good Z in a lake.
