This looks like the same interior as Cam's GT30?

Where'd you get em from? 

 

And why couldn't they keep that colour dash surrounds for the later revisions!? It looks so much better than the woodgrain.

Yeah they're so comfy and they're the best looking seats for this car, tat I've seen so far.

Ebay, they came from an imported B4 I believe.

Well, I've got someone who wants to buy my rims off me sometime next week, so I shall be dropping down to 18's but will be going wide maybe even try and fit 9.5's under it.
Manual conversion is next big thing I plan on doing to it, I've also been playing with the idea of wrapping my roofliner in leather or even suede, could be a nice addition to the interior! Oh and so keen for my blitzen rear bumper to come from import monster hopefully in the next couple of weeks!

18x9.5 will fit but you will need to get 235 / 35 /18 tyres and they are legal at that size and about -4 of camber!

 

Suede roof sounds really cool to me and blitzen rear bar will look great and it seems the blitzen kit has taken off in popularity :)

Without hijacking the thread, I'm looking at fitting 18x9.5 +35 (or 38) with 225/35 on my gen 3. They have almost the exact same rolling diameter of my current stock setup

So, besides mine obviously having quite a bit of stretch, why is it that 235/35 is considered legal? Would mine be illegal for that reason?

Cheers anyone

The tyre is classed as being to small for a 9.5 wide rim were as 235 is the smallest legal size and that's what strict Bob Jane told Me from there book of what's legal and what's not and they were surprises that 235 was legal, and i was running 225 and they were fine but heaps of stretch! And Mr police man said change your tyres and get by guard or else defecto

I've decided to keep my 19's, they're actually such nice wheels.
But I am also saving up so I can buy myself a set of SSR professor TF1's, may as well wait and get a set of rims I'm really happy with than to rush into buying something I'll end up selling a couple months later.
Still it's hard to justify spending 4k on a set of wheels.

It sure is hard to justify when there are so many options to get, but when you have them you will love them! And the dish in the front of the 370 would look great on your car :)

Yeah I'm a sucker for deep dish, and I love my current wheels so I wanted something with obnoxious dish and a similar spoke design. And these seem to be the best of both worlds.

Just an update on my build.
Since hitting a kangaroo my build has slowed down a lot since the repairs. Due to being pretty happy with where my cars at and wanting to save for a second car the only mods this year have been the blitzen rear bumper, RX bonnet and the engine bay has been cleaned up a little bit. 

oh and one headlight is ziptied on lol
