New Wheels and toys and stuff

Splashed out on some new wheels and tyres last week...unbeleivable grip from the Goodyear F1`s......



Also bought a new Hybrid Turbo, courtesy of Turbo Force....not fitted yet, but I`m sure it`ll be a barrel of laughs.



Hmmmmm fun times ahead.
also bought a new head unit with a USB port in it so no more carrying CD`s...what a brilliant idea though...just plug in a 4GB memory stick and its an instant 1000 songs on tap...brilliant and simple.

New respray at the end of the year to get rid of various damage, knocks etc. FMIC sat in my living room waiting to go on, all thats left now is to decide on which ECU to go for.

Re: New Wheels and toys and stuff

Nice upgrades...While i like the wheels you got, i liked the old ones alot more, but thats just me. I've always like wheels with a lot of spokes (my favorites being the OZ Superturismos)

God, turbo = love

Re: New Wheels and toys and stuff

I'm liking the color combo with wheels/paint on your car, it looks really clean. Nice job, and try not to eat any squirrels with that turbo
