fl327 Posted September 25, 2003 Share Posted September 25, 2003 Love it when you stomp an expensive car hard, and get the parts you wanted from the junkyard? I did! Thanks Davyz and Icice9 for showing me the spots. Went to a jy today and they had a section of just various rims, aftermarket and oem with tires removed, and wading throght this pile, I found a pair of 15x8.5 alloy star wheels with 0 offset dual drilled for fords and 4x4.5 lug spacing. Tried them on a 280z in their yard----WHATS MY NAME!!!!!!!! they fit up in the front and rear fine, these are going in the rear with some good meats on em, ill find fronts later-its the rears that I cant keep rubber on. Took em home and washed em a little, and the lips came out shiny!!!!! A little polshing will make them mirrors!!! I painted the star part dull aluminum for that ricer look im going for, and thurr I go! These ones may need flares some day, but im gonna run em a hanging out the sides for a while though. Heres the kicker, when I go to pay for these wheels, they tried to charge me 35 a wheel, me being me I got nuts and said "your man over there said they would be 40 total!" He said 50-and I paid the man and ran to my car!!!!! So I get in my car after packing the wheels up and head back home. On the way there a MK3 supra with a front mount intercooler and bov chasing me, we get to a light and he gets over a lane to start combat. I pretend not to look at him, drinking my bubble tea and staring straight ahead. Light goes and I let er rip, to show this sucker how the West was Won. I obliterated him out the gate, hit second hard and got some more on him and let off. When he came up the side I wouldnt look at him and kept playing it cool with the bubble tea-Yes, I have been watching INitial D and doing my best Tak imitation. Cant wait for this dumb clutch to get her finally so I finally go to town. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sumo Posted September 25, 2003 Share Posted September 25, 2003 drinking my bubble tea I love bubble tea! Oh good race and find too! KidVid: I only watched Initial D in Japanese and read english Subtitles. Good story and animation though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fl327 Posted September 25, 2003 Author Share Posted September 25, 2003 I have Initial D on DVD, and it has both versions, I have previously only seen the subtitles, and watch the english version so I can see the action better. Do you guys play the arcade version as well? Last semester I was a big fan of it and played it every school break almost a 50.00 a week habit. Now that I have a garage, I spend more time there so no more video games. The wheels are killer, its just my tire selection that kinda sucks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
