Loving the wheels, 9krpm. I saw the same wheels on a flush IS350 recently. If you didn't have them on a VR, I would consider them .

Thanks dude, I would love to build a vintage Japanese car. Hopefully my son keeps the same taste as me and doesn't end up wanting a pick up truck or some ****.

Yeah black on VR is pretty played out so you have to do something different to set yourself apart from the crowd.

Yup, with the new budget being so much bigger then it was with the rx8 this project should grow pretty fast.
