New to the boards

Hi everyone. I'm new to owning a rotary but not completely inexperienced. A few months ago I picked up an 89 TII at a steal of a price but with a lot of miles and a blown turbo. So about a week later I finished swapping in a JDM TII motorset and have been working out a few minor kinks here and there along with a few minor mods. Before this I was mostly into S-Chassis cars, and primarily SR and RB swaps. So uh, yeah, anyways, here's my baby.

I can't say I wouldn't like to learn, but my s13 and s14 were built for Auto-X, and the end goal for this car is the same as before, quick course times. THat, and I don't have the money to afford all those tires!

wheels and tire size?

MrVito · 03-22-2008, 06:43 AM

just some cheap Enkei ZR-1 17x7.5, offset is either 38 or 40. only have 215's on there now. since lowering the car with Teins and tokico HP's, the stock meshies have been put back on because the Enkeis won't clear the new springs. 5.5mm spacers are on the way to clear up that prob though.
