Those are the Petronas Twin Towers in Malaysia. Used to be the tallest structure in the world until the one in Taiwan was completed.

What kind of rims are those and what size?

Great looking car but the wing completely ruins it.

Wow, beautiful photography. I never knew malaysia was so photogenic. Beautiful car too, park bench and all. Love the skyline wheels.

BTW: What kind of sticker/emblem do you have on the nose of your car? I hate the mazda symbol on the front of our cars, looking for a nice cheap alternative.

Holycross/ C41250n,

Wheels are from the R34 Skyline GTR. Size is 18X9 +30 offset on all 4's.

VCpatel,

The emblem is a MS logo. I'll try to take a closer photo and post it here later.

Zoomnrx8,

I'm using a P&S Sony V3 on manual mode.

It looks like its an MS sticker in gray or silver... the one where the M & S run together.

I hate how they measure height on buildings!

What building looks the tallest?

01-31-2007, 09:28 PM
clearly the sears tower, but I'm sure you're going to tell me why it's the taipei 101.

Velocity
01-31-2007, 09:47 PM
The "antenna" on top of the sears tower doesn't count toward the height, but the "spire" on top of taipei 101 does.

lesper4
01-31-2007, 10:32 PM
yes the taipei's tower is intregrated, they dont count that on the sears towner. If you have ever seen the inside of 101 the frsi half of the building is offices and the second half is a hotel with a lobby all the way to the top and the floors circulate around the buildings like a dount.

Pictures look great gober, those are some dificult settings to take pictures in.

Brings back memories of my trip to Malaysia. I went in the Petronas towers to the observation bridge. Too bad the observation deck isnt at the top of one of the towers, that would be far better.

About 1 hr away from the Petronas towers.
