still looking at vmr wheels as an option, but i will probably not get new wheels and just wrap new tires on my SSR's.


hey there, mr.gale.
Mr.kenchan.. I didn't take the sports-package when I bought the Z cos I have plan on getting new wheels for the Z, and I am not a fan of that rev-match thingie...

as for the BBK, Wilwook will be my choice with 14" on the front and 13" on the rear, 6 and 4 of cos

i guess if getting a bimmer, best to check out the new 2-series... ?
it's really a personal preference, personally I don't like the 3-series wagon... but I heard it's a very nice car though...

regarding the 2-series... I thought it's only available in Europe, no..?

I ordered this for the Z last night...




I do have a CF short antenna for the Z, but the plastic spacer is broken... and rather than wasting my time driving around to look for a spacer...

why not getting a new one... ??

it only costs CAD$8.00

and this one is even shorter...
