After much pestering in my intro thread, I have cracked and decided to show you guys what my car is like now.
At it's current state the car looks like
about 2 months ago it looked like
had to take the 20"s off, as they are far to big
looking at a new set of 18", unsure on which set.
Still have a few more mods before I am done they are:
1: Install Car Audio - 12" sub, 6" splits up front, 6" Coax in back. Alpine head unit sound proof the doors
2: Rims - Looking for a good set of silver Racing Rims (possibly 10 spokes)
3: Lowered - 30mm as legal.
After that its completed till I have no more loan. then its either..
NA - Turbo
NA - B4 Conv
NA - WRX Conv

Thanx for the comments. As for the rims Evil_B4. I know you said they were big. I was hoping they would fit. But then again. you only need to learn once before you stop being a d**k head. I guess mine cost me $1700, although I like ozzytyres saying they could match 1700, then a week later quote my flat mate $3500 for the same pair. never going to them.
I am looking at a set of ANZ Rage - http://www.jaxquickf...ps/ANZ-rage.jpg
Seems to be 1300-1400 for rims, tyres, and balance.
As for the conversion. I am looking towards the later model wrx, around 03/04 single turbo, maybe the 2.5L. Will need to see which will cost the most to drop in and wire up. I was thinking B4 because i think Jovi said wiring loom would be close to the RX..
18" > 20 sounds good, i would love 20"s, but I guess if I do the conversion the 18"s will give me better track abilities later on.

Not really Limited.
Just the only Brands that do them are expensive. (Rays, Work and BBS FTMFW!)
Limited here in Aus if you compare them to wheels available for Holden and Ford

Dude, you wouldn't be flogging road tyres on a track? You could go road legal semi-slicks but you'd probably find it MUCH cheaper to have a set of track wheels..
Please consider spending less on the wheels and more on the tyres, ESPECIALLY if you are going to do a conversion..
BTW, I got some of those kings for $110 ea on special.. yes, $440 for brand new wheels..
What JOVI said about WRX wheels is also worth thinking about.. rexnet or liberty.asn are both good places to trawl for wheels.. and they'll likely be wrapped in Bridgestones (made by Michelin don't you know?)..
Anyways.. put your unknowns on eBay ftw..
