They'd take those rims off because they rubbed something chronic on the arches, The car was utterly undriveable at that height with the roads in Belgium and Holland, had completely crap offsets so the 2 pot supra rear brakes wouldn't fit on the back and stuck out past the arches which is an on the spot fine of 250 Euro's in Holland.
I agree though the wheels on the car really let it down (only went on there as I needed wheels to drive the car lol)and will be replaced when a decent set is found. I've heard nothing but bad press about the finish quality and longevity of the surface on the do-luck double sixes which if you consider you are paying 500 quid a corner thats just not acceptable. The ride height will be lowered a tad but with the nose being so far away from the front wheels any sort of sharp incline is almost impossible with even another 1/2" drop.
Turbo wise it was a T04R, but due to a complete lack of BOV in its previous ownership that lasted me about 5 months. Bearing play had me replace it with a BL T67dbb instead, I looked at the T04Z and I'll be honest the only difference is the inlet housing over the T04R I had. Its waiting on a tune now as the AEM dumped its program completely and I haven't really got the time to deal with it now. I was told it was a 600bhp capable motor (hmm american bhp methinks). The old tubby put out 454 on thors dyno at 1.0 bar with a nadged tubby so I expect over 500 after its tuned to 1.4 bar on the new one.
It unfortunately wasn't uber cheap by the time it came to me as the fault keeping the price down that was suspected as being a blown engine was diagnosed in the UK as actually just the bearings in the aircon pump.
I see you have my picture of the green kazz sports manual car on the previous page as well
