Hey all thought I'd put up my car as I've just started modding it. It's a 1998 Rx liberty sedan with the ej2.5. I bought it in September 2011 for $3000 with two months rego. It did a head gasket at 190k and then had rebuild by previous owner. The only thing really wrong with it was it need a selected arm knuckle and power steering lines flushed and a minor exhaust leak. Since September all I have really done is put some 18x7 liberty gt wheels on it and put a nice sound system in it. Some future plans include putting a front lip on and some gc8 struts in, new exhaust manifold and 2.5 cat back through to some nice twin pipes or a cannon unsure as of yet. I'll attach some pic in the next few days when I get back my laptop.

Welcome to Subyclub. $3k for an RX is a pretty decent buy!

Actually, the Gen5 GT rims are 18" but they are 7.5 wide.
Do they look like this?
These are the Gen4 series 2 GT rims which are 17s
And these are the Gen4 series 1 GT rims - also 17s

very little gutter rash, on all wheels but for the price i can handle abit of gutter rash, maybe when i go on my open and get my b4 ill get them repaired and repainted.

At $450 they were practically a steal! Definitely hang on to them. Car looks good mate.
