Phat8, really good to see someone close by. Been trying to insert the pic of mine, don't know if it worked. Twenty-flippin'-inches !! I checked tyre prices for my 18'' and each tyre costs more than four of my previous car, with some change to spare. Where the heck did you do the chrome? would like to do both the front and the rear

msenzo: if you want to insert a photo you've got 2 options:

1) you'll need to upload the picture somewhere. try www.photobucket.com. Sign up there, you'll see an browse button, insert that path you put in your post, click upload. Once it's uploaded, you'll see a url (use the top one). Then come back, click on image and insert that url (copy & paste is your friend)

2) Resize the picture WAY down, go advanced, manage attachments, browse for photo, and upload.

Before I disappear, in SA we have two versions
5 speed manual (141kW, 220Nm) R299 000
6 speed manual (170kW, 211Nm) R341 000

Sorry, don't have conversions for power and torque. But you can easily match these with your figures.

At the moment 1$ will buy you R7.04, you do the math. Costs pretty much similar to the Alfa Romeo GT V6 and way, way cheaper than the 350Z, the Crossfire(yuk!!) and the S2000.

there r a few 8's around here but everyone's 2 scared to do any mods 2 them, especially turbo charging them. we dont get the white colour choice here though which i think is a great looker 2. car cost us R240.000 pre owned with 20.000 km's on the clock. as for the wheels we here in SA call all after market rims ''mags'' . i dont know what metal i think u right, they're not 2 heavy but the 20''s do slow the beast down alot.

SAME! im in edenvale jhb and yourself? love silver it was a tough choice 4 us between black or silver. tyres r ridicilously priced. our original tyres were finished and had buckled rims from our lovely roads. so we decided 2 just go big. those rims were not chrome they were the normal matt silver colour rims come out with. probably the picture... what r u going to mod first? i think a light silver shade window tint all round could compliment ur car alot...

Here's the only pics I've got at the moment. Just took some 2 days ago w/some of the other trinkets I've put on. But I'm really slow about actually getting my pics on to my computer.
