yea, i said 'steel' not steering
anyway will the stock Euro Luxury (07-08 model) rims fit our FD1?
offset etc

If I'm not mistaken I've read it is 5X144 16X6.5 +55 i think this is the Tyre size 205/50 R16 87V tires same as the '97 preludes.
oops
sorry didnt read properly
LOL!
those rims will fit our fd1
kevin had em on his car before
Is there really much gains from staying na on a r18? Imo, if u don't wanna go turbo on it, save for a k24 or k20a. Better to save that 10k ppl spend on a sport model to convert an fd1
yes K20a will be my final final goal..
but it's very hard to install..
ej20i, which rims are you talking about now?
i think he was talking about these euro lux rims

they work fine on springs, but u may have problems with them on coils because of the +55 offset
the best offset for our FD will be +45? +42?
depends on wheels size right?
i'm new to this, humbly seeking information from all of you guys :)
+45 is a good offset
im on +42 atm
its good but had to cut the plastic a bit since it was rubbing a tad
whaat tim u scrubbed with these rims? fark =[. on the inner wall yeah?
btw i think stig/dez said 35-40 offset is good with about 7.5-8" width?
a k20z2 engine only having 10kw more than the r18a engine.. not worth it in my opinion.. and there are more potential mods for the r18 engine (mostly from the states) then there are for the k20z2..Quote:

thanks Johnny
have you done all those..
i'm already excited by seeing all those mod terms haha
but i don't think I'll be able to afford them all
In your opinion, which one should I do first?
probably intake? and ECU?
what's lightweight pulley?
and how to workout 'chassis reinforcements'?
ive done most... ECU would be the last mod once uve got on all the other mods as the ECU is tuned to suit all the mods uve got on
recommend doing intake first for engine performance
pulleys are the wheels on the side of the engine tat operate the crank, water pump, and alternator.. with lightweight pulleys, the engine would be able to pump out more power freely than the heavy oem pulleys
chassis reinforcement is basically strengthing the overall chassis stiffness.. by putting in strut bars and underbody chassis bars
