Yo John,

I emailed Mr Ishibashi the other day about your car, he owns the silver 330 posted at the start of this thread, and runs this website: http://www.asahi-net.or.jp/~kf2m-isbs/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

He is well aware of your build, and I think has been watching this thread for some years!

Anyway he wanted me to let you know that he will be selling these wheels soon, and if you wanted them for your car, to let him know...

They are Enkei Mesh 14x7J and 14x10J

You've already got wheels pretty sorted by the look of it, and these might not be to your taste, and the rears would be a very tight fit... but it would be pretty cool as they are the wheels off that car, worth considering.

Been busy beavering away.The exhaust is now completely done,I'm pretty happy with it and super happy I dont have to work on it anymore,Its pretty tight and I made it out of oval tube for more clearance.Getting over the rear subframe was a mission but its clear of everything,cheers Trev for doing 25 meters of tig welding on the thing.
I hooked up the throttle cable but with my foot on the floor the throttles only opened about 2/3 so I made a new pedal and mount,needs a little tweek but should be in the car tomorrow.Ive been chasing a fuel leak for a while so I'm gonna stop fucking around and I'm gonna buy swagelok fittings this week,thatll sort the sucker out.Interior is about ready to fit aswell. So pretty happy with progress,Ive got a very short list of things to do before its dyno time so Im hoping to be on the dyno next week,cant fricken wait

Exhaust is coated in some ceramic stuff done at EPC in christchurch,great guys to deal with and reasonable prices.Black thing is a driveshaft hoop

With the subrame all finished and in the car I discovered the bags were just rubbing so out it came for some clearance,bought a tear to my eye cutting it up
